my visit to morgantown!

this week i went to morgantown to visit david and go on a few interviews. pregnancy and airline travel do not mix : ( pittsburgh airport was like, the most amazing airport i have seen. if you ever have to be stuck at any airport, this is the one you want to be stuck at! it was more like a huge mall that just so happens to have an airport on the side.

we were lucky that david got off work early on monday so we spent the afternoon together. tuesday i had my first interview at a local bank. while i was downtown for the interview i checked out downtown morgantown and was surprisingly impressed. lots of stores, restaurants, and lots of people populating the area. it was much larger than i thought. i also had an interview in pennsylvania and made the drive up there. i accidently found the outlet mall on the way home!! :)

wednesday david was on a call so i entertained myself for the day. his place was messy (silly boy!!) so i spent some time helping out a poor soul and cleaned the place for him. i also met with the realtor, who was awesome and showed me a lot of great places. we are hoping to find and settle in a place a few months before the baby comes.

thursday i had another interview. that night david and i went out to eat with some of his collegues...all very, very nice people.

david's schedule was changed in the middle of the week and he ended up having friday off. so we spent the day and visited pittsburgh. it's a great city!! pittsburgh is on three connecting rivers and downtown kind of makes a triangle.

we really enjoyed spending the week together and were sad to see it end. david has been working so hard and being down there i formed a new appreciation for how hard it really is on him. when he would come home from the hospital his eyes were just blood shot red from being so tired. but he has a great attitude about it and is learning a lot. we are hoping it gets a little easier with time.

the rest of this month i will be packing up my stuff and will be making the move in august!

other pregnancy stuff:

i am just now starting to have a little belly, though i'm still a few pounds down from my pre-pregnancy weight. i am attributing this to the healthier foods and proportions i've been trying to eat.

dr. rubin gave me the best advice ever: she said if my vitamins were making me feel bad I could substitute them for a bowl of total cereal each morning. i've been doing that and already feel better! she also suggested to put lemon slices in my water to encourage me to drink more, which has also worked. i love dr. rubin's advice so far!! :) she is also sending down maternity clothes, which i'll be wearing before i know it!

with each day we are getting more and more excited!! i am starting to feel like myself again with more energy and less i'm-on-a-boat kind of feeling. tomorrow we have another doctor's appointment. i'm anxious to hear our progress!
