Second Trimester is Upon Us!

Well, I know it has been forever since I posted, sorry about that. We have a lot of ground to cover. I have been feeling pretty sick lately. My body FINALLY started to produce the hormones that normal women produce from day one, so the docs took me off my supplements, but it feels like I am now going through round 2 of 'Morning' sickness because of it. I am nauseous all the time . . . Talk about fun!!! Ha! I am finally starting to show, yippie! Here are a few pictures of the last few weeks:







I also went to go see Melissa at 13 weeks so she could get a sneak peak at her new little neice/nephew. It was so much fun. She scanned me and measured all kinds of things on the baby. It was so neat to see the difference from only a few weeks.





My favorite thing over the last couple weeks was a little prediction Adam made. As some may know, Adam decided to go to St. Louis for Game 7 of the world series. He can't get enough of his Cardinals =o). While he was gone, before game 7 started, I got the following text message from him:



Needles to say, he was correct!!! I was so excited that he got to do something so exciting and that his predicition came true.

When I first found out I was pregnant this time, I knew I would be a huge ball of worry as stress the whole time given my history, so I copied my best friend and bought a fetal doppler online. This allows me to hear the babies heart beat at home any time I want! It was hard to pick it up prior to 12 weeks because the baby was super low, but now it super easy to find and I LOVE it. Adam and I play with it all the time. Here is a video I took of one of the times we were playing with it (If the video works?):



For those who are anxious, like me, we will find out officially on 12-12-11 if it is a Boy or a Girl!!!!! We may go see Melissa at 16 weeks and see if she can tell yet or not, but the official date is 12-12-11 (18 Weeks). I cannot wait!!!!

Well, I think that is it for now. I will touch back with y'all again in a few weeks!

Love you all!
