This picture is from last Sunday. Donovan has now graduated from the nursery and has advanced to the Sunbeam class in our primary. He was so excited (I don't think he realizes that snacks and toy time are no longer included.) He's wearing a crown that says "I am a child of God" that his new teacher Sister Weber helped him make. He still wears it and talks about his new class. There are only 2 other kids his age in his class, Xander and Kenedi. He talks about them all the time too. He's growing up way too fast.
Then there's Elliott. Also growing way too fast. He got to join the nursery last month and has loved it from the get-go. I thought he'd be my cryer and want mommy and daddy, but no, he really didn't care. He saw that Dono was in there, grabbed his hand and had a ball. Too bad they only got to be in the nursery together for 2 weeks. There are also 2 other kids in Elliott's nursery, but 7 more coming this year when they reach 18 months old.
I love my boys, they're just getting so big!
As for an update on myself, I found a miracle pill that has done wonders. Drammamine! Who knew? I've never had morning sickness quite like this. The pill kept me alive and kicking.... for about 2 weeks, then all of a sudden it came back!!!! I thought for sure I was done being sick. Each of the boys' pregnancies I was only sick for 5 weeks. We're now heading for week 9 of being sick. Does this mean it might be a GIRL???? I'm doing ok, at least the bare minimum, there's good days and bad days. I guess I should be grateful to have the evidence that I'm for sure having a baby. I even read somewhere that women who get morning sickness while pregnant have less chances of having breast cancer when they're older. I thought that was interesting. Bring on the barfing!! But anyways, I know others have had it 10 times worse, so I should just stop complaining. If anyone has a cure, old wives tale, etc. that has helped them or a family member, please let me know. I'd love to try it. Here's hoping that the end is around the corner (to the sickies that is).

I think you are right, must be a girl. Your boys are so big!
Look at your big boys they look so handsome all dressed up! I have gotten sicker with each pregnancy too so I feel your pain Reagan was by far the worse!
You need a baby counter so we here in Arizona can keep count. Isn't it wierd to see your kids go from Nurshery to sunbeams? Just think of all the kids that were with him here that are now sunbeams, it's a big class. They are soooo cute.
My doctor prescribed Phenergan. I take it before bed, sleep like a baby and wake up feeling great. I've also heard a little ginger root grated into hot water with a splash of lemon juice works for morning sickness. It works for my car sickness. Hang in there.

Doesn't make you so sad at how fast they really grow up. My little Caden is not a Sunbeam anymore! Your boys look adorable. I am glad that they had such a great time in their day of change. I hope that you begin to feel better, and like some others said...don't be afraid to ask your doc for a prescription. And I will be crossing my fingers for a girl for you....they really are so much fun!
I hope you're having a girl! I've heard Vitamin B something works. Also, as long as I was always eating, always had something in my stomache I was ok. Thanks for the tip on drammamine! Good luck! How far are you?
Oh poor Crystal! It doesn't matter if someone has it worse- morning sickness sucks! I had it all day- nonstop- from conception even through delivery! I tried it all, the only thing that helped me was Zofran- prescription pill. You might want to ask your OBG about it. Your boys are so cute and so much bigger! It was wierd for me to have Jared go into Sunbeams- he's not my baby anymore!
I'm glad you are starting to feel better. Thank goodness for modern day meds. You're mom told us Dono's theory about your pregnancy. Hope you keep getting better.
don't they grow so fast?? bekah just left the nursery too. i felt bad because we were out of town the 2 weeks prior to the change so i felt it was just kinda sprung on her :( but she did well. LOL in fact she does better than her 5 yr old sister at sitting and listening reverently!
as far as nausia....i have used papaya tablets...they are chewable and the ones that i had actually tasted quite pleasant! i had to get them from the pharmacy (they special ordered it since i don't have a health food store very near)but they worked fabulously for me. everyone i have recomended them too has helped them too! sometimes not 100% but hey, it;s something! :) good luck!
Isn't it sad when your kids leave nursery? Terralyn is now in CTR5, I can hardly believe it. Your boys are so cute.
I am sorry that you have been so sick. I hope that you feel better soon. These are two very handsome young men!
