Week 5 oh... hey hormones

Apparently I forgot to post this one.  This is from last week.  Week 5 is here!  My baby has a heartbeat now!  Look at you grow little one!
My body is slowly starting to change,  and it seems like it will take forever for me to have a baby bump, but I am trying to enjoy every stage of pregnancy,  so here is to week 5!
My hormones have stepped up their game, yesterday I was having ridiculous mood swings at work, I felt like a crazy person. My nasal passages are stuffed up.  Also my "girls" are growing so quickly that my shoulders are aching everyday. They look great,  and they are excited to perform the one task they were created for,  feeding the baby! But man,  my shoulders are having a hard time bearing the weight.
Side note: went to the store for icy hot for my achy shoulders,  and icy hot has a pregnancy warning on it! For Real? Ok I'm pregnant,  I'm not a little piece of fragile China. It's so annoying!
Anyways,  I went to natural grocers today to get some coconut oil,  and I also found some special coconut water, and let me tell you,  it is the best thing ever. It is leagues better than any coconut water I've ever had before.  I LOVE it! It was almost 5 dollars for only 16 oz but I can't have wine,  beer,  or coffee, so it's totally worth it! 
This week we get to visit my in Laws in depot Bay for a little coast trip. It will be nice to have a relaxing day at the beach.  Reggie just loves the ocean.  Hopefully Zach will be able to build me a chalk board this week.
My husband and I are facing many big decisions and there are so many different ways we could go,  so we have been trying to navigate through those options. We are just praying that God makes it blatantly obvious to us which path to take.
I'm just so blessed to have my husband,  he is willing to do anything for our family,  and he helps me manage my emotions,  and as crazy as I can feel, he never makes me feel like my emotions are invalid or silly. He rocks!
