Two C's

I have recently acquired two things that both begin with the letter "c". The first is a cold, and the second is a new camera.
I'm pretty excited about the camera. We bought one off of ebay on Friday night and got a really good deal on it. It is a Fuji S700 48 X Zoom Camera. I know next to nothing about camera's, but after checking the online reviews, ( which averaged 4.5 on a scale of 5) we think we got a good camera. Mine kind of halfway died after Thanksgiving. The coloring was WAY off and all the pics were coming out orange. Then this past week it wouldn't even take a pic. I've been feeling pretty lost without my camera. I love to take pics. I'd like to get better someday, but for now it's just my hobby. We went through about three milestones without it. Christmas, Travis' first haircut, and now Jenna's third birthday. So, I am looking forward to getting it in the mail. :) As soon as I get pics I'll post a few.

The second C. A cold. A nasty full blown raging sinus clogging cold. It's brutal. My nose is stuffed and yet kinda runny at the same time. My eyes are itchy and watery, and even my ear canal is itchy! It might not be so bad if I could take one of the million cold medicines out there, but being 22 weeks pregnant I can't take anything. At least not that I can recall. I have a Dr's appt tomorrow, ( just a monthly check-up) maybe I'll ask the Dr. if she has anything. I have always said that I'd rather be sick with the flu for 24 hours than a cold for two weeks. Sure it isn't fun to be puking , or the big D, but at least your done with it right away. Not like a cold. I just hope I feel better by this weekend so I can go to Duluth with all of my sister in laws. I guess all I can do is wait it out. Anyone out there have any other suggestions?

I've taken Benedryl and anything that is Tylenol related (Tylenol Sinus, Tylenol Allergy, etc.), while pregnant. My doctor was okay with me taking those. Feel better soon!
