Vacation Bound...

Skip and I are going to Dewey Beach, DE on Wednesday with my mom and my sister, Deborah. We will be gone a week. I can’t wait!!! We use to go almost every summer when I was a kid. I haven’t been since 1999 and Skip has never been. It will be fun. I haven’t even started packing yet, but I am sure it will happen eventually. I am just so excited that I don’t have to do anything that I don’t want to do. That is my favorite part about vacation. I am a little worried about the flight. I am afraid that I will get sick since my morning (all day) sickness is still hanging around. My sister, Ginger told me to go ahead and find every barf bag around when I get on the plain. I am also worried about leaving Hogan at the vet. We have never left him there this long. Skip keeps telling him that he is going to camp for a week. The last time we left him at the vet, he was mad at me for a couple of days because I was the one that picked him up. This time we are getting Skip’s friend, Woody to pick him up because we will be getting in too late to pick him up. Hopefully he will be mad at Woody instead of us. I am sure we will get him some type of souvenir to bring back. I will most definitely be doing some shopping while we are there. Skip’s birthday is Saturday. So we will get to celebrate that while we are gone. He will be 31. I will do some shopping for him too since I haven’t bought him anything yet. Anyway, I hope everyone has a great 4th. I will post vacation pictures when we get back.

Update...

I went for a check up yesterday and they did a sonogram. It was awesome! Our little baby is a jumping bean. It was so cool to actually see a little head and body. Last time we could only see a dot with a heartbeat. The heartbeat was a strong 137 and the baby is about 2 inches long. I have gained 2 pounds, which was very surprising because I thought I had gained about 15. Dr. Gebhart said everything looks great. By the sonogram, he has changed the due date to January 4th. My next appointment is July 21st. I will be 16 weeks by then. He said that we won’t learn the sex of the baby at that appointment. He does that at 20 weeks. So we will have to wait another two months to find out. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the second picture of our baby.

11 Weeks and counting….

Today is Wednesday, which means I am now at the 11 week mark of my pregnancy. For the last couple of weeks the morning sickness (more like all day sickness) has really been getting to me. I just seem to stay nauseated all day. On top of that, I have been really tired. I am so glad that it doesn’t really matter what time I get to work because I have been sleeping in lately. I am hoping once I get through the 12th week all of this will pass, like everyone keeps telling me. I think my belly grew over night. I will probably have to surrender to maternity pants this week. I have been wearing maternity shorts on the weekend, but I am not sure I am ready to completely start wearing maternity clothes. I guess I don’t have a choice. Also, I am in the process of daycare shopping. I have already put our unborn child on a few waiting lists around town. It is hard trying to figure out which one is the best because everyone has good and bad stories about each daycare. Anyway, my next appointment isn’t until June 23rd. I can’t wait!! I am ready to see another picture of our sweet baby.
