5 Weeks

Well Baby Schieck had a lot of firsts in the last week.

First.... vacation, airplane ride, Disney trip, swimming pool fun, rocket launch, and meeting Grandma and Gpa Schantz.

Since we were in Florida for the last 4 days visiting with my dad and step-mom, we decided to share our news with them.  They were so happy and shared in our excitement for the new member in our family.  I felt pretty good for most of the trip considering how much we were walking around and how late we were up eat night.  However, on Saturday I think it all caught up with me.  We were at Kennedy Space Center for the day to see a rocket launch and I was just so tired all day long and didn't feel very well.  Also, this morning on travel home, I felt pretty sick as well.  So far (knock on wood) I have not thrown up at all.  In all the reading that I have done, is stays that morning sickness gets bad at week 6, so I'm bracing myself and hoping for the best.

When we got home, we started putting up some more Christmas decorations including the tree!  No lights or ornaments yet, but the tree is standing!  :)  It's crazy to think that this time next year we will have another member of the family here with us.  We are so excited and anxious.  We pray for safety and health over the next 8 months!  :)  It's going to be a wild ride, but I can't wait!
