Tonight is the last night of week 13, and I can't believe how fast time is flying.ItBaby Franco has grown to the size of a lemon (or the size of my fist)...I can't wait for our next ultrasound. I miss seeing our baby live in action...I still can't feel the baby's movements, but that should happen in a few weeks. So in between our ultrasound appointments we thought it would be fun to listen to the heartbeat. We ordered an ebay stethoscope and think we heard it but it could have been gas bubbles...lol. My belly is starting to feel bigger and I swear my belly button is already changing. I hope I "pop" soon, I can't wait to really truly look pregnant...the other day I was offered wine, I need a sign "I'm not fat, I'm pregnant", hehe.
The second trimester has been treating me well, I've been less tired but for some strange reason I've been having some serious migraines...I think they might have something to do with my eyesight changing, apparently that happens during pregnancy. The constant pounding on my office wall does not help the situation at all either (thanks to the construction work that has been being performed for the last 2 months). I have really eaten anything crazy, I think the oddest combination I had was pork dipped in balsamic vinegar with cucumbers...it was amazing. I'm not really sure where they come up with "pickles & ice cream". I'm eating my fair share of both, but never together. I don't know what really inspires pregnant women to combine very opposite ingredients...maybe that's why I'm always hungry, I can't figure out what I'm craving. I'll keep working on that.
Tonight Ty was going organizing old pictures on the computer...and I realized that
We got engaged in 2008
Married in 2009
Pregnant in 2010 and we will
Have a baby in 2011!
This has been the best 3 years of my life and I'm so excited for the coming year. I'm constantly dreaming of what our life will be like, and sometimes the dreams feel so real. I'm plannring the baby nursery in my dreams, now if I can only remember all the details. I've actually been sneaking nursery ideas browsing the internet on my study breaks...there are so many ideas and options. I can't wait until I can actually focus on that, I know I want something peaceful and serene...like a spa. We thought about the future and figured we might be stuck in this house for a while (boo) so we are going to try to keep the nursery "gender neutral" just in case Baby #1 needs to share the room with a little brother or sister down the line. This house isn't our dream home and we constantly talk about moving, but reality is that it's cheap and the market isn't coming up anytime soon. I would rather live simply and be a mom than live in a big house, ect. So I want to make it as cozy and homey as possible...a safe sanctuary for our family. I have a lot of work to do before April 28th. AHHH so excited. I think I'll go dream about our future now <3
