WE ARE HAVING A BABY!!!!!
The above picture is baby and me at 12 weeks. I'm thankful that my jeans still fit nicely, and hope they continue to do so for a little while at least. My "skinny jeans" are all in the back of the closet, put away for another day. My size 3s still fit nicely, and it is kind of nice that I wasn't always really thin because I also have a pair or two of 5s lying around that I can use before maternity jeans!
I am thankful to be feeling well. I have been a bit tired, but that is not unusual for me! Whenever I am pregnant I find that coffee no longer appeals to me. So as terrible as it sounds, I've sometimes been drinking iced tea or soda in the morning to give me a little caffeine boost.
We got to hear the baby's heartbeat on Tuesday, March 2nd, and it was so neat. It is always such a relief early on in pregnancy to hear that sweet sound, especially when you don't feel the baby moving yet or see any outward signs of having a baby in the belly!
Annie is understanding a little bit that there is a baby in Mama's belly. However, she is more excited about friends of ours from church, Stu and Laura, that are also going to have a baby. When I asked her if she wanted a brother or a sister she looked at me like I am the dumbest person in the world and said, "I already have a sister!" Duh, Mama, it can't be a sister because I already have one. I hope she's not disappointed if it is a girl! I'm sure she'll love her just as much as she does Abbey. Abbey doesn't understand but does love to poke my belly button when we show where the baby is!
We are so thankful that God has chosen to bless us with another baby.
