It’s been too long…
And requests for an update are being made. So here I go!
I am officially Jessica Ann Scherer! Michael and I enjoyed our very simple ceremony at the court house here in The Dalles on February 13, 2009. As was said before, we figure that money can be better spent on stuff for our little girl. So the court house it was! We were joined by my parents, Kim, Michaels dad, and one of Michaels good friends Henry and his fiance and little girl. It was short and sweet, exactly what we wanted. In a few years, probably around our 5 year anniversary, we plan on having a bigger ceremony that we would love all of our friends and family to attend. After the ceremony, we all enjoyed a nice lunch at Tijuana, one of our favorite places to chow down. It was such a nice day. The next day, Michael and I spent some good quality time together in Portland doing some shopping, eating, and relaxing. We rarely get days off together, not to mention getting a chance to head out of town, so we jumped on the opportunity to do both. It really made the perfect end to our little day.
The baby is doing great. She is quite the handful though, which has me hoping she will be a perfect little angel when she comes out. If only! The morning sickness is pretty much gone, though I do have days off and on where eating just isn’t an option at all. Headaches have been my #1 battle in the past month. Prepregnancy I would get horrible migraines, but I was able to tackle them with medications. With the little one inside me, I’m stuck to good ‘ol Tylenol which unfortunatly barely puts a dent in the pain. Needless to say, I’ve had quite a few days recently of staying home, in bed or on the couch, just wishing my head would stop pounding! On top of that, I’ve been having horrible sleep problems! I know it is part of pregnany, and especially the last leg, but it’s killing me! I feel so tired all the time, but when I go to lay down, falling asleep just isn’t happening. Based on this, and what is to come with the rest of the pregnancy, I have decided to cut my hours back slightly. I am only working 30 hours a week now - which may not seem like that big of a change, but having a 3 day weekend every week is surely going to be nice! One extra day to get the cleaning, laundry, and errands done… just more time in general to do nothing and relax!
I will post pictures of the wedding and updated baby bump pictures soon!
