The secret is out.

There is a new generation on the way.
New generation to my side anyway, it's already being anticipated by cousins on Andrew's side.

5 weeks and 6 days along today, tomorrow will be halfway through the first trimester. We have our first doctor's appointment at exactly 8 weeks. And if I remember correctly, the nurse said they schedule the first ultrasound for 10-12 weeks, so it shouldn't be too awfully long before there is a picture to share.

No morning sickness as of yet. But from what I've read (been doing a lot of that), for a lot of women that kicks in at 6 weeks, some as late as 7. So we'll see in a few days if I'm doing as well. I'm already stocked up on crackers and gingerale just in case, but I'm hoping that I can just keep those as snacks.

We're having to fill our freshwater tank now, instead of being on running water. It's tedious, but at least we don't have to wait for someone else to bring the water, it's just a tap on the pump building. It is a bit far to our current site though, takes 3 hoses to just barely reach, so we're moving this evening to the other side and 3 sites closer to the building. Then it should only take 2 hoses and we can put ours away for the winter. Then it's just a matter of putting the bubble wrap back on and the plastic over the windows inside. Andrew figured out how to insulate the doors, and that has made a HUGE difference. Even on nights when it gets below freezing, we only have the heater on halfway if that much. Now that those doors are taken care of, we should have even less problems than last winter. Plus now that we're starting the winter with the dehumidifier, we won't have to play catch-up to keep things from molding.

The winter is looking promising.
