This little guy decided to potty train himself about 3 weeks ago. (Little bums in underwear are stinking cute.) I was not super pleased at the timing as I was still feeling pretty sick and absolutely exhausted each day. Max would say, "Mommy, I need to pee!" And I would reply, "Max you have a diaper on, just pee in it!" I'm a little ashamed now that I think about it, but I was just trying to survive. He seriously did it on his own and has had very few accidents. Minus the two times Zannah and Max decided to spread his little deer-like poops all over the basement carpet and play an odd game of "Smash the poo with hand weights". I'm still trying to forget about that. 
Second monumental moment is I am on to my second trimester. Which means I have 12 weeks of daily shots in the rump and suppositories and lab checks and transvaginal ultrasounds behind me. Marcus was my primary shot giver, until January came around and he had business trips 4 weeks in a row. My mom stepped in and gave them to me while I was in Malad for a week and then she and my dad drove up and spent a few days with us to give me shots again. I also have some very, very nice friends and co-workers who stopped by morning and evening to administer injections the other days. To say I am excited that this part of my journey is over would be an understatement.

I think I laughed so hard my hernia popped out. The one time Jimmy took off his diaper and left poopy prints over the white carpet I took a knife and cut out the carpet and took it to the dumpster. They had plywood floors for the next year or two before the wood floors got put in. What a blessing not to have to do diapers! Honestly though if I'd felt like you did I'd totally have told him to pee in his diaper too. That first 12 weeks sounds way more horrible than normal. Glad you've made it!
