i made this shirt for k....
we went to dinner and then came home for the big reveal.
daddy hadn't seen it yet...
once he saw it they had some time to talk about daddy daughter stuff. lol.....
i bet you want to see the shirt..... :)
Our big announcement that I have been dying to tell everyone!
K is going to be a big sister!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it's even harder for drew to keep the secret, he asks everyday if we can tell everyone yet.
it's cute!
she loves her new shirt.
she talks about the baby in mamas belly.
i took 2 tests before telling drew (he wanted it to be this big thing. lol)
so hard to keep a secret like that!!
then i had to take two more tests.....he didn't quite believe me. this was our first month of trying. I didn't take pics of that. sorry. lol. you get the point. :)
then we had to wait forever for dr. appt.
our trip to cali came right when it was supposed to happen.
so the day after we got back, we had our appt!
everything looks good!
had our ultrasound and heard the heartbeat.
(drew almost passed out/hyperventilated. lol.)
k thought the doctor was taking the baby out right then! lol.
i just took pics of the paper...it's the thermal stuff so it's basically fragile.
i miss getting hard copies and a picture every week.
it was very nerve-wraking. with k i could see her every day and KNOW everything was ok. but i had to be patient and trust in the Lord that everything will be ok.
the baby measured about 10w2d, 2 days ahead of what it should be by my lmp.
so a due date of 3/19/2012 or 3/21/2012 (what i go by) right before our 1 year anniversary!
super awesome!!
So grandma Jane and grandpa Craig will get 3 grandchildren in 1 year! (Kendall, the Smith baby, and this unnamed baby!)
we are SO excited!
I am about 11 weeks today. and am barely starting to feel better again.
the morning sickness has kicked my butt so far. ugh! I don't remember it being this bad with k. the peak of it was, of course, on our cali vacay. fun! so it made my car sickness waaayy worse. made me miserable. with k i could eat and feel better (thus i gained a miserable 10 lbs in the first trimester!) this one....the thought of food made me sick. i lived on soup for so long, it was so good. i forced myself to eat real food because i knew i needed to.... then regretted it when it made me feel worse. not fun. Sweets make me more nauseas, the thought of chocolate or reese's pieces, yuck! I would eat sour things though. (i will let your mind wander on what i am having with the cravings! lol)
so i am now getting to the point where i am hungry and need food.....but still look in the pantry and nothing looks good. hopefully the nausea will be alll gone by this weekend! (*fingers crossed*) it's still better than before, thank you! Ginger tea helps. but that's not so yummy! lol.
we plan on finding out the gender, so we will post about that.
I feel like i'm showing already! :/ they say it shows quicker with the 2nd but geeez, 11 weeks? i wake up looking normal, but by the end of the day....there's a bump!
well, that's our BIG news! Glad we can finally share it.
Glad I'm back vertical and have the energy to post. Maybe I can get started and finish up some of these projects....maybe :)
