Normalcy is Great!

Ahhhhh what a refreshing weekend Nemo allowed us. This was the first weekend in a long time that we were able to do normal people things without Brooke feeling sick. For Valentines Day I got her gift certificates to get a pedicure. Saturday did she not only get her pedicure, she also got a haircut! Now for non-pregnant women and even most pregnant women this is no big deal. But for Brooke this was pretty big. She hasn't really been out of the house since mid-January besides to go to the doctor and to church.

We also went out to eat today with our Life Group. Thanks to lactating mom's who can't eat spicy mexican, TGI Friday's was such a great choice. Mainly because they put alcohol in their food. Not a big deal on most occasions, but when you haven't put any alcohol into your body since Thanksgiving, getting a little bit of Jack Daniels in your burger and sauce is great! Although, you can't really taste it too much nor does it give you any kind of special feeling. Today was the first time that we have been inside a restaurant since December 23. She felt good and the the large smell of food didn't even bother her.

Now we can only hope for normalcy, or as normal as can be for a pregnant women, through the rest of the pregnancy.
