Ok so... It's been a while since I have posted anything to my blog, and I decided today that I really need to go back to posting. Lots of EXCITING things have happened in the last 4 months, which is actually what has kept me from posting. We'll just start at the beginning...
December - December was so busy! Busy at work, and busy because it was Christmas time! We had a great Christmas with our families :) But the best part came 5 days after Christmas! I found out that I was expecting!! It was the best and hardest day ever! I was SOOO excited, but I knew I couldn't tell anybody! It was the hardest secret I've ever had to keep! I wanted to wait and tell Wyatt on New Year's, but by the time I had kept the secret all day, I knew I couldn't keep it from him for ANOTHER day! SO when he got home from work, I showed him the pregnancy test :) He was so excited, and I was so relieved to finally get to tell him!
January - Whew! January was exhausting! Just a week or two after we found out the great news, those "wonderful" pregnancy hormones started kicking in! I didn't feel as though I could ever get enough rest! I would go to bed much earlier than normal, and then wake up later, and I still could hardly keep my head up at work! I felt ok, though, until week 6... I was sick all day, every day for almost 2 weeks, but then it just went away! Thank goodness, because I was beginning to wonder if I could make it through! I also had my first OB appointment at the end of January, and I was able to see our little tiny baby on a sonogram :) It was just amazing!
February - I still didn't have very much energy in February, although I was feeling better. That's about it for this month... just lots of sleeping :)
March - March started my second trimester, which has been much more enjoyable than the first :) My energy has returned, and I eat ALL the time! I am starting to show, which I am very excited about because it means the baby is growing! The only thing about getting bigger is that NONE of my clothes fit anymore! I just had my 16 week OB appointment yesterday, and everything seemed to be going good! The baby's heartbeat was 160 bpm which is about what it's been at each appointment. This month all I can think about is my 18 week sonogram where we will be able to find out the gender!! That is coming the first week of April! I can't wait! I don't have a preference, (just as long as it's healthy!) but I am ready to be able to name it and to know which side of the clothing store to go to :)
Ok, I think that has us all caught up for now! I will hopefully be able to go back to posting at least once a month now for the rest of my pregnancy! But I'm not going to promise anything once the baby is here ;)
