2nd Trimester Begins

I'm trying something new for the 2nd trimester.  We'll see how well I keep up with it!  I will try to post my sticker pictures and an update every two weeks.

Week 14:

How much weight gained: We’re still at negative 8lbs.
Latest food craving: I truly do not think I've had many "real" cravings, just a lot that sounds really good, or really bad.  Steak fingers and chicken nuggets, but I always want fruit.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Split pea soup made me incredibly nauseas. Gross!

Mostly happy or moody: Mostly happy, except when nauseas or vomiting.
Wedding rings on or off: On, but they are huge on me.  Still no Aggie ring.
Worst Thing about being pregnant this week: Not being able to control my nausea and vomiting timing.
Best Thing about being pregnant this week: 2^nd trimester!  I am hopeful as everyone says this is the best!

Update from within: The weeks are flying by lately.  I got to watch Dad jump out of several planes this week, it was neat!  Overall, mom is feeling better these days.  At least she has more energy.  Mom has also started being more active lately which is good for both of us.  Although, she gets headaches off and on, which are not fun.  I also like to remind her I’m around every once in a while and randomly give her nausea.  I met Uncle Ross & Aunt Laura this week, which was fun.  We had a really great time with them.  I’m already planning to visit them for a week every summer.  There is a lot of talk about whether I’m a boy or a girl, no one knows but me and God, and I like it that way.  My parents will find out in just a couple of weeks!

Week 16

How much weight gained: Gained 1-2lbs, but still at negative 7lbs overall.
Latest food craving: Ice cream and steak fingers (not together).

Anything making you queasy or sick: Baby D didn’t like my smoothie, yogurt, or apples this week.  The air freshener in our house also had to be unplugged this week.

Mostly happy or moody: Happy
Wedding rings on or off: Still on, but too big.
Worst Thing about being pregnant this week: Not sleeping well.

Best Thing about being pregnant this week: I think I’m feeling Baby D move around some!

Update from within:  I’m growing like crazy lately, and I think mom can tell.  She feels huge, but knows this is only the beginning.  Luckily my sweet Aunt Kristin and Grammy brought mom tons of cute maternity clothes.  Things are crazy around our household because there is talk of moving fairly soon.  I am sad to leave our home in Georgia, but excited about Kansas too.  After all, it is where I’ll make my big debut!  Dad is busy out processing, while mom over plans our move to Kansas.  I’m sneaky with my pitter patter, and mom never knows when she’ll feel me.  Dad is also really sweet and dying to feel me move, though he hasn’t caught me yet!  I love my parents already.
