Picture Taken 5-21-2011

As of today, I am 16 weeks aka 4 months along my pregnancy. It has definitely been an adventure, oh, lemme explain. . .

Before we officially found out (above picture is the official "you're pregnant!" ;), I felt really weird that week. I kept sneezing and my stomach jus felt like someone was pinching me. So I told Billy, "Either I am pregnant or I'm getting a cold." I asked if we could take a pregnancy test, hoping I didn't get his hopes up. And there you have it, after 8 months of trying, we were on our way to becoming parents!

At week 6, my morning sickness began. Oh boy, was it awful. I felt like I honestly couldn't eat anything without throwing up. AND! I couldn't eat the same thing twice. Dang body was being so picky!! As of now, I am starting to feel better... but KNOCK ON WOOD!!


Basically, my days consist of sleeping 8 hours a day - with an occasional one hr nap, then eating breakfast, snack, another snack, lunch, snack, one more snack, dinner, and yes, another snack. My goal is to only gain 25 pounds during this pregnancy by trying really hard to eat healthy foods :) I feel like I am CONSTANTLY eating something. This co-worker asked me the other day if a baby was inside my "pregnant belly" I told her "nope, there's no baby, ONLY FOOD!" lol I thought I was funny. Last time I checked (about a week ago) I have gained like 5 lbs. So, I'm pretty happy about that!!

I have a feeling that we are having a boy and I hope I am right cuz we dont have a name for a girl lol We did have one, but then a couple of family members used our name on their cat. Of course they wouldn't have known we liked that name for our future daughter... but, Billy and I are still a lil bitter. haha Anywho, we should find out the gender at the end of the month! I'm pretty excited and Billy jus wants to know already ;)

Oh! We are due January 29, 2012 :D

Love,
