14 WEEKS
Alright, I did it.!! I went to college, I graduated, got a job(s), got married, and now I'm going to be a mum! Soooo many things accomplished in these short 28 years. Now that Will and I have been married a year and half I think it's time for me to actually get "domestic". While I still haven't yet mastered the whole dinner thing...I have become a professional grilled cheese maker, laundry folder, vacuum-er, and cat sitter. Ask Will, I dare you. I have attempted other things but not so skillfully and as I've always said, "I don't like to do things I'm not good at". That's a good life motto, right?!? Anyway, here is my attempt at what I think my next step should be.....blogging. Lame right? NO! You're still reading! Enjoy...
Sooooo I stole the list below from my good friend Jessica (check out her blog here!) because I wanted a way to keep track of how I felt...and looked...during this pregnancy. Will and I are really
Total weight gain: about 3 lbs but it looks and feels like 10...
Maternity clothes? I've been mixing and matching...I have some pre-pregnancy pants and tops that are stretchy and still fit but I also bought some bigger shirts that feel waaaay more comfortable. I always have a pair of maternity jeans from Old Navy that I would wear everyday if that was acceptable.
Stretch marks? Not yet but I'm nervous! I will be bathing in cocoa butter just in case.
Sleep: I always want to nap when I come home...which I try to resist...I have a pretty sweet work schedule so I can sleep in until 8am if I want. Sooo, I'll go with "good".
Best moment this week: Finally WANTING to exercise and not feeling like a sloth.
Miss Anything? Delicious deli sandwiches, sushi, medium steaks, aaaand brie!!
Movement: Not yet
Food cravings: Anything that is a carb must go into my mouth.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Sometimes eggs gross me out and beer...the thought of beer makes my tummy hurt.
Gender: I WAS thinking girl but now I'm having boy dreams. Will thinks it is a boy...and my doctor said she is getting "boy vibe" from me. We shall see!
Symptoms: Sleepy and hungry
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy I guess...although I have cried over the long line at Ben and Jerry's and other random commercials.
Looking forward to: Finding out the sex!!! Oh and summer clothes. I'm ready for dresses (which I never thought I would say in my entire life) and sandals.
Alright, that does it for this week. I promise the next one will be shorter!

Well I'm not sure if you will ever have the dinner thing down since I am such a lousy cook. Maybe you could take cooking lessons somewhere. I think the blog is a great idea and I promise I won't interject any of my war stories since all your friends will have fresh and exciting experiences to share with you. But I am hoping for a girl.....all I can say is "if Les had been first, he would have been the only one!" Mom
