Still Sick

I haven't been feeling very well lately. The sea bands only help to keep the feeling of sour stomach away, but I still feel sick to my stomach from time to time throughout the day. My biggest thing is I feel so tired all day. I have no energy. I want to work on my art, but I feel so tired.
I did manage to draw a new aceo and post it on ebay the other day. I also updated my site, but I will have to go back and fix some codes, that somehow I mess up. I am going to try and finish "Blessed". I know it will take a long time, but this is a really strong piece.
Also I'm supposed to start a special project for a young lady named, Derika. It will take a little while now to get that project going and finished.
Well this is all for now : )

Missing Sketch

I've been feeling pretty good since I started wearing the sea band to help with morning sickness. So yesterday I thought of working on something small like a aceo. I remembered a aceo sketch I drew before my show at the Jubilee. So I decided to work on it. Well at least I thought so. I can't find it. It's lost somewhere in the mess in my small studio. My studio is usually a lot better orginized, but since I've become pregnant I don't have the energy I would normally have. I also decided not to worry about cleaning it up to much, because we are going to start building my big studio soon and I will eventually have to move everything then anyways. So maybe when I get the energy I will look for it and straighten this place up a little.
We're planning on going this weekend to a church to hear a Southern Gospel Singer sing named Kevin Spencer. He's one of my moms favorite singers. It will be nice to get out of the house.
Roy and I went in the backyard yesterday and studied the bible together. We were reading about Moses and when he struck the rock with his rod and water came out. And how the children of Isreal murmured against God, and Moses father inlaw gave him advice. I love spending time like this with my family. I think it really helps our marriage to grow stronger.

My Husband Roy

Today Roy and I went to kmart to buy me some sea bands for my morning sickness. They seem to be working so far. Roy such a big help to me. He's been cleaning the house for me, washing dishes, doing landry, helping Jozi with his home work, giving him baths at night, packing his lunch for school, laying his clothes out for school the next day, sending my orders out, and anything else I need help with. Roy is so good to me. I really am thankful for him and I'm very lucky to have such a good husband that will go out everyday and work hard and come home and help me when I'm sick. He is so supportive of my talents in art and singing. He never did want me to work outside of the house, that's one reason I started my business. He always told me I have to much talent to get a normal job. I'm glad I don't have to work outside my house. I love being at home : )

Mystery Person

I've been going through a crazy roller coaster of emotions for the past few weeks. I began to suspect why over a week ago. I was going to keep it a secret, but I changed my mind. I told my son in the future I wanted him to meet a mystery person. He looked puzzled and said, "Mystery Person??? Where are they???" I just smiled and said, "I will tell you all about them later on". So this went on for a few days, my family was driving me crazy to share the news with eveyone else in the family. So I decided to tell. I went to my son and said, "I will tell you who the mystery person is and where they are." "The mystery person is a baby and it's in momy's belly." He looked up at me with his eyes so big and sparkly and said,"Mystery Baby".
Yesterday I went to my first Dr visit. It really has changed since I last went to the Dr's. They did a internal ultrasound. I got to see my five week old fetus. It's little heart was fluttering. Roy was with me. He got to see it too.
I was sick the other day all day, I ate a bowl of cereal (Honey Chex). I think I can't handle a lot of sugar. When I went to the dr he gave me some papers on how to take care of of my self and other stuff about the pregnancy. It said to eat six small meals a day. Eat lots of fruits like grapes, apples, dates, etc. Eat lots of veggies and to make sure to eat meat or nuts for protien and some bread such as wheat bread. So I think I'm going to try to do this. I started walking last week, so this is a good start toward a healthier me and baby.
