Well, some pretty exciting stuff has happened and it's not officially public information, but since only a select few know that I blog I guess it won't hurt. WE ARE HAVING A BABY! I can't even believe it. There are days that I wonder if I am really pregnant at all, but quickly after I doubt it Craig reminds me that I am more emotional than ever and...well...looking a bit different. I am a few days away from 16 weeks, which mean I am nearly half way there-crazy! We aren't sure yet about the sex of the baby, but I have had a dream that it was a girl...I think I have a 50% chance. The Lord is so good to us. We are still in Nancy's home, which is mostly a blessing and sometimes pretty challenging. Craig is still on the job hunt which is similar to the home situation, and I am going to school. I will have one full year after this semester is over before I earn my bachelors degree in English-I can hardly believe that one too.
I hear that in the next couple of weeks I could possibly begin feeling the baby and that makes me so so so so happy. I wonder if I will be able to determine the difference between kicking and regular and very frequent stomach gargle? Craig and I have a list of names that we like, his are generally more "American" and mine sound a bit more exotic, this should be interesting. I hope to continue blogging and posting photos of a growing belly, once things get exciting. Right now, I just look like I had a little too much to eat-not very cute. Until then...
At some point during the first trimester I could only tolerate simple, white and yellow foods. i.e. eggs and rice for dinner. I was also always freezing, but that could be because it is much colder in Nor Cal than in So Cal.
I also felt MISERABLE. I slept a lot and Kodiak cared to keep my toes warm. Note the prego book at the bottom corner of the picture.
Between week 14 and 15. Too much food or pregnant? Pictures of the first ultrasound at 6 weeks in the background.
