Hi Mommy and Daddy!

On Monday, Brian, Mom, Kelly, Sterling, and I went to see little peanut most for the 1st time in person. When the tech started, peanut was jumping around in there like a little "mexican jumping bean" - I say he/she was using my bladder as a trampoline! He/she wouldn't cooperate, turning every way except the way the tech wanted him/her to. Then all of a sudden he/she turns to face us and waves!

It was the cutest thing! Then he/she went back to being stubborn. I was sent to the bathroom then had to flip from left side to right side, sit up, lay back down, repeat - NOTHING. I kept reminding Brian that this was certainly HIS child! Then he/she stops moving, all we could see was his/her little heart beating. I guess he/she was tired from all that jumping around!



Looks like I will be going for a repeat ultrasound Thursday at 10:30am. Here's hoping he/she isn't quite as stubborn Thursday!

12 down +/-28 to go!

Today is a big day...I'M NO LONGER IN THE 1ST TRIMESTER!!! Hopefully I can say GOOD RIDDANCE to "morning sickness" (random, throughout the day queasiness), the inability to brush the inside of my teeth without gagging (or worse vomiting so that I can repeat the process all over again), and exhaustion (with no time for a nap) - even if only temporarily. So I say WELCOME 2nd trimester, I've been waiting for you!
