Pregnancy Is Not All It's Cracked Up To Be

To say the least, I have not been enjoying this pregnancy so far.  I have had pretty much every symptom under the sun, and have been quite miserable.  I feel that it's so hard to connect with this baby and actually feel like a Mommy-To-Be when I've been this sick.  I am 11 weeks today and starting to feel a little better.  Daniel is really getting excited about the whole baby thing.  Right now, we're contemplating names.  For a girl, we're considering Paityn Rena (pronounced Renee) with Rena being my late Aunt Vickie's middle name, and either Trevor or Brantley Leonard for a boy.  Leonard is Daniels late Father's first name, as well as the Daddy-To-Be's middle name.  Oh well, we have 29 weeks to think about it!  I am attaching a picture of my 8 week ultrasound, where I measured 7 weeks 5 days.  I am eagerly awaiting my 12 week appointment this coming Monday!
