Growing On

Today marks the start of my Second Trimester. I'm so happy to be able to say that! I'm hoping that this trimester will be nicer to me than the first. The first trimester was full of nausea which I'm happy to say has disappeared. I am now always hungry and Brian says I say that I'm starving a lot more now :) I was also very tired all the time and I hope to get a little more energy back this trimester.

I had a doctor's visit last week and we were happy to hear the heart beating strong at 160 bpm. We are hoping to find out in February what we are having so that appointment we will be looking forward to that. Yes, we are finding out what we are having and Yes, we have names picked out but aren't telling until we know what we are having. I was shocked to find out at the Dr that I hadn't gained any weight because I ate a lot at Thanksgiving but I must have lost some before then since I wasn't eating much at all.

At 14 weeks today, our baby is the size of a lemon and growing strong.

We've been so blessed and overwhelmed by all the love and excitement from our family and friends since we've shared the news. Thank you for all of your kind words. We thank God everyday for this special gift he's given us.
