Lake Vacation and yes, another baby update!

On Tuesday, Kyle and I returned from our week long vacation to the Lake of the Ozarks! We had a wonderful time as usual. Gabe and Cori came along and we all had a blast together! We got lots of relaxation time, ate way too much yummy food, spent our days boating, and of course played several games of Pictionary!!

Here are some pics from the trip...

This video was too hilarious to not post... sorry babes!! Enjoy... ;)

I married Kyle for his dancing skills, lol... and don't you just love the song??? haha!!

Before we left for the trip I had another Doctor appt. We were about 9 and a half weeks at the time. It was the coolest sonogram yet for me... the baby's hands and feet were movin' and groovin', I saw the umbilical cord for the first time and I could see his/her heart beat more clearly than before! Here is the sonogram...

Here are a couple pics for Aunt Summer and anyone else who wanted to see my growing belly... :)

Taken today at 11 weeks

Have a great weekend!!

Love,

Baby Update

I last went to the Dr. on Thursday, Sept. 3rd... sorry I'm a little late on this post. Baby is still doing great! Tomorrow, we'll be 9 wks so at my last appointment we were 1 day shy of being 8 wks along. The baby was .98 cm or the size of a blueberry ;) This is double the size from the week prior and he/she's heart is still beating strong!!

My next appointment is this coming Tuesday, so I'll have more up to date info next week. I do know that baby should be nearing the size of a grape or large raspberry by now ;)

Here's last wk's sono

I'm still feeling wonderful overall, praise God! I've had more energy throughout the day recently and haven't been sick at all... I get the occasional icky feeling, but it could be much worse so I can't complain. I'm on a bit of an emotional roller coaster lately, but what else is new? I'm sensitive enough as it is, so the pregnancy has just intensified these emotions. I'm just thankful I have a husband who is extremely understanding and supportive no matter how much I wig out or cry at the drop of a hat... poor guy! The main thing I've noticed recently is my extreme indecisiveness on just about everything... I'm pretty much always hungry, but can never decide what to eat and once I do decide on something... I HAVE to get that something or I just don't want anything. I'm gonna say it... pregnancy does make us women a bit silly so I'm just praying for this pregnancy hormone silliness to stay under control as much as possible. Despite the indecisiveness... the one thing I do know is that we are so truly blessed, so all I can really feel right now is ever so grateful for this healthy growing baby!!!!

Sorry to have babbled on... tonight is the first NFL game of the season so I have a little extra time on my hands. Not to say that I'm not fully in tune to the game, of course.. wink wink!

I'll keep ya posted next week and I'll try to make it short and sweet... since I've bored you enough already!!

As always... Love to all and thank you for keeping us in your prayers, as you're also in ours!
