13 Weeks!



Here are some pics of me at 13 weeks (or the day before). The "pooch" has grown a tad which is something to get used to. I thought the nausea was completely gone, but I'm finding that it comes and goes. Overall it's much better though! :)

No More Nausea!!!

I'm happy to report that two days ago, like a switch turning off, the nausea finally stopped! I'm a happy girl at this point! But I'm still hungry a lot of the time!

Jumping Jelly Bean!

Today we had another doctor visit. I'm 12 weeks and 3 days along. We've been blessed and spoiled to have ultrasounds each time we've gone to the doctor so far. They are keeping a close watch on our little one which is nice! Today was so exciting because it was the first time we got to see our baby move! It jumped at least twice and did a few other movements here and there! It is still measuring perfectly for its gestational age. This whole process has been so amazing! We are so thankful for this wonderful gift! God is soooo good!














We'll go back to the doctor again on October 7th, then after that we won't go again until I'm about 18 weeks along. We hope to find out at the 18 week visit if this baby is a boy or girl.

11 1/2 Weeks!



Here are a couple pics of my 11 week old baby bump! My mother-in-law got this maternity shirt for me. It says "Baby loves mommy" in several different languages! :) What a sweet thought!

I go back to the doctor on September 25th!

10 Week Ultrasound

We had our 10 week doctor's appointment on Tuesday, September 9th. Having Ricky go with me helped to put me at ease (and probably the doctor too). We got many questions answered which was a relief! The best part of the visit was the ultrasound, of course!!! :) Our baby is now 1 1/2 inches long! It has really grown. This time we could see it's arms and legs in addition to it's little heartbeat! These are the ultrasound pictures. In the one on the bottom, I think that the baby's arm is bent and you can see the fingers resting on its' head! :) SOOOO SWEET!

Baby's First Hurricane Evacuation!

We just got back from Vicksburg after evacuating from Hurricane Gustav. It was a good opportunity to visit with family there! We packed up our 2 cats and lots of other stuff in Clifford (you know, the big red truck) and went over there on Saturday night. As I looked at the back seat I told Ricky that if the baby was already here it would be sitting back there and all of the stuff back there would be baby related!!! We are really in for a life change and it is soooo exciting to think about and anticipate!

Our area really wasn't affected by Gustav, thankfully, so now we are back home and getting settled in again! Ricky is working today, but school won't resume until Monday YAY!!!!

We're still looking forward to our next doctor visit on September 9th. I'll post an update after that! Thanks for visiting! :)
