19 Weeks

Mike and I went on Wednesday to our third doctors appointment where we had the 18-20 week ultrasound. It was so amazing! Lil Peanut was moving around like crazy! The nurse had asked what I had for lunch, apparently he/she was very excited about their picture being taken. Everything is exactly where it is supposed to be with measurements and the due date has remained the same from the 8 week appointment; June 18th. We also were trying to sneak a peak to see if our baby was a boy or girl, but we couldn't tell and we don't truly want too. We want Peanut to surprise us in June. The brother in law, Tom, has the dollar pool going on Boy or Girl, so anyone who wants to join in the fun let us know! Ha Ha...I say boy, and Tom says he's going with the mother; but Mike and Grandma T, Lora, Ryan, and (I think) Scott say Girl. We shall see!

16 weeks

Well, the first trimester has come and gone. I am finally seeing a little belly, which I feel like I have been waiting so long for! I think I was really lucky through this first trimester...I had a few bouts of morning sickness, nothing too bad compared to other stories I've heard. It also took a little time to start adjusting to: the little morning routine changes, feeling exhausted ALL THE TIME, and having clothes fit tighter and tighter.

SO now that I am in the Second Trimester the morning sickness is gone, I am not feeling anywhere near as exhausted, and I am seeing my belly become bigger and hard. I also have felt what doctors call the quickening (little movements from lil Peanut)...SO crazy and exciting; but I wish Mikey could feel it. Soon we hope!
