13 Weeks So Far So Good...ish

Hey!

Well I went to the doctor for my second visit and they are a lot shorter the second time around! Everything is OK with baby. We listened to the heartbeat and it was 155 bpm. Yay! It was so neat to hear that sound and know everything was going well.

As for me, this pregnancy has been a bit different. I feel like junk more often than not, and it doesn't show any signs of subsiding in the near future. One one hand, I know each pregnancy is different. On the other hand I can't just sit around and try to feel better - I have a kiddo to chase around! So there are a lot of things contributing to my condition. . .

Jack is doing really well and we are trying to start to talk to him about babies. He has made some early predictions already. We'll have to see if he changes his mind later.

Brother or Sister? Sister
Hair like Dad or Mom? Dad.

Only time will tell!

Have a super day!

    Dena, those first weeks can be harrowing! My doctors always told me to concentrate on eating protein--maybe that will help you. Try to rest whenever possible and soon you will be feeling great! This is such a special time for your family.

    I'd not heard protein - I'll try that since this sickness just won't quit. :) Thanks so much!

Angel or Devil?

Kids. They are too funny. I had to share this one with all of you. We went to Mass today and tried to sit inside for once. Everything was great, until Jack noticed the missal in the pew had these nice orange and yellow squares or something in the illustration on the cover. He was conviced they were dominoes, but that is a word he struggles to say. So, at an especially quiet time in the Mass he looks at me and says, "damn-yous! damn-yous!" We both had a mix of embarassment and laughter. Only out of the mouth of a 2 year old! We went to the back of the church soon after that. :)

Happy Birthday Jack

Here are some photos from Jack's 2nd birthday day, and party. He was so excited he was telling everyone happy birthday! We 'filled' his room with balloons while he was sleeping. He was so excited to wake up to balloons! Jack wanted to pose with his new favorite toy - Buzz! They are still usually only separated at nighttime (too tempting to make noise all night). Oh, and that is his 'camera' smile. He uses it whenever he sees the lens pointed at him. So cheesy! Blowing out the candles on his Spiderman cake. Yes, all the other stuff is Thomas the Train. He likes what he likes. Jack wasn't about to let Emerson go home without a hug. It was a hug, not an attack. Promise!

Easter

Easter has come and gone, but finally I have some photos uploaded! We had a nice time and enjoyed spending time with Grandma and Grandpa C, Antie and Uncle John Tressell , and Uncle Robert, Aunt Natalie, and Emerson. Jack really enjoyed hunting for eggs (for a few days he asked us to hide them again so he could find them), but was a bit disappointed when they no longer had animal cracker in them. Anyway better late than never. I'll put all the photos on Flickr . :) Painting Eggs They actually sat still for three seconds! Family Photo - Easter 2011 Until next time...
