13 Weeks

My friend Sara did a great blog "pregnancy diary" while she was pregnant with her daughter and it really encouraged me to do the same. I think it will be fun to look back on these posts someday! :)

How far along? 13 Weeks
Maternity clothes? Yes and no. My pants are very snug at the waist, but they still "fit." I went ahead and bought some maternity jeans and shorts. Holy cow. Maternity pants are the most comfortable pants EVER. I don't even care about those big ugly panels. Anythings better than my jeans smushing into my belly!
Sleep: SO tired. All the time. I have a few good hours in the morning, but after that, I could sleep the day away. I'm very thankful for my summer vacation and ability to nap when I want!
Best moment this week: Seeing little peanut at our 13 week scan. Baby was being a little stubborn, but finally started stretching out, waving, and kicking. I could even see him swallowing!

AND making it to the second trimester.....HURRAY! :)
Have you told family and friends: Baby is out of the bag!
Miss Anything? Cold deli sandwiches and caffeine. All I want is a Blimpie's sub! 

Movement: Peanut is squirmy in there, but I haven't felt anything yet!
Food cravings: Changes day to day....but McDonald's fries sound good all the time. I wish I would crave something healthy, like salad.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Lots of things, but not as much as a few weeks ago. I am really turned off by chicken. YUCK.
Have you started to show yet: Little bump in the front....looks like I've been eating too much, but lo and behold, tis a baby!
Gender prediction: I am unsure....Christopher is sure it's a girl!
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: hmmmm.....mostly happy, however, I am easily irritated. Just ask the lady at Walgreens who was all up in my space the other day. I wasn't very kind to her. whoops.
Weekly Wisdom: Try not to be too nervous and try to enjoy each day!
Looking forward to: Seeing the hubs side of the family soon! Yay!

and let's be real...who doesn't love a sneak peak???

Baby T~ 13 weeks

I'm Back!

Whoa! It has been WAY too long without a post. I had every intention on getting back on it as soon as work slowed down and summer vacation started. However, as soon as summer vacation started.....I started going into super LAZY mode.

No fears, I'm back. And I have PLENTY to share.

So in my blogging absence, life continued as usual. School was crazy and hectic, as it always is in May. The hubby and I celebrated our 5th....yes, our 5th anniversary. Crazy! My best friend got married and had a beautiful wedding. 

And....we had a secret, A gnawing, drive you crazy, worry you to death secret.

I bet you'll never guess what that secret was? 

Yes....we were (are) pregnant. 

Literally, we've known since the earliest you could find out, and we have been on pins and needles ever since. Thankfully, our doctor has been amazing and saw us at 6 weeks, 7 weeks, 8 weeks, and 11 weeks. We've been able to see the peanut and listen to his/her heart beat. Today I am 13 weeks, and again, got to see sweet peanut swallowing, stretching, waving, and kicking. I think I will continue to be nervous until baby is finally here, but it is great to be through the first trimester. Here is to hoping the morning sickness will go away completely soon!!! :)
