11 weeks and feeling great!


I went to the doctor today and everything looks great. I had a sonogram so I have a new picture of my baby! He/She is just chilling with a good heart beat. Very nice profile pic.

It has been a few weeks since my last post and I have only gained about 2 pounds. I am telling my self its my clothes that are putting on the weight! I still haven't had any nausea or vomiting...yippee! I have had some sinus headaches but nothing that requires medical attention. I haven't been real emotional but I have a feeling its just around the corner. I am staying active and my plan is to continue with that. I have stopped running and replaced all my running with walking or the elliptical. The sensation to pee the entire time was annoying plus it was just tiring!

Blake and I have realized we are going to have to make some serious financial changes to afford everything we want for our baby. We do our best not to stress and continue to have faith that everything will work out.

Operation Tell All...

On Easter Sunday we decided to tell the family we were expecting in November. Of course everyone was super excited and wants us to have a girl!
I hate being the center of attention so I tried my hardest to have someone else announce it for me. Well it didn't go as planned. I had a basket full of eggs and a special delivery card with my sonogram pic inside. I placed it on the table outside near everyone. It took about 15 minutes for anyone to notice and sneak a peak. Blake's aunt Sherri the nosey one was the first to find out. Instead of her saying "Christine is pregnant" she squeals and runs in the house to find me and said" Whats this...when did you find out, what are you having and when are you due"! I was then pushed outside to announce it to everyone.
Blake's mom was also so excited and was dying to post it all over facebook so with my permission she made a post.
