1st Trimester with Baby Gunn was a rough one. We could never be more thankful for the timing God provided for our lives. With Kevin taking a new job mid April and Heidi moving from balancing work at the preschool and Tastefully Simple to moving full time with Tastefully Simple it has really worked out. Being sick for 12 weeks was rough and while at the time it felt like years it actually went by quickly. Heidi was thankful to have her home office where she could sleep in and take lots of naps as well as get some work done when need be.
Heidi lost her love (only for the time being) for cooking, baking and even bacon! :) Many nights Kevin would come home from work and make himself dinner eating in front of the oven fan while Heidi sat on the porch waiting for the house to air out.
Kevin's new office or car or something smelled moldy! No one else could notice this but there were no hellos upon arrival home from work until Kevin changed into other clothes. What a trooper!
In the first trimester Heidi lost almost 25 lbs. Food was really the last thing to think about. However around week 10 a couple things sounded good: Oatmeal Cream Pies and Caesar Salad. Starting at week 12 we realized Heidi wasn't eating any protein at all and this was creating horrible headaches. Chipotle became our best friend! Ordering naked bean burritos and starting to crave fruit, specially raspberries along with vanilla yogurt and lemon water.
While Kevin was working and enjoying his new job Heidi spent time in her office; enjoyed afternoon swims in their pool and time with neighbors on the porch. We are so grateful for the community we live in and the neighbors we have. Several other women work from home or are off for the summer and it has provided many days of good company and sunshine.
At our 12 week apt we heard a heathy heartbeart and our doctor said Baby Gunn was doing a LOT of flips! So thankful!
