How Far Along: 12 weeks 2 days

Fruit: baby is the size of a lime (I think it was that size last week...hmmmm but it's longer now. Who knows :)

Size: 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 inches

Baby changes: Fetal growth is rapid now. In the next 3 weeks crwon-to-rump length of baby doubles.Fingernails also appear this week. external genitalia are beginning ot show distinguishing features. In a nother 3 weeks development of the fetus into a male or female is completed.

Best Moment this week: Thursday was Thanksgiving and we spent it with Blake's family, yesterday I got the tree put up and started decorating the house for my favorite holiday, Christmas! And, today my sister and her family are here for our Thanksgiving with my parents.

Putting up the tree and three stockings was kind of bitter-sweet. This will be our last Christmas as a family of three. I need another stocking for BabyK2!

Gender: Unknown

Movement: Nothing yet.

Food Craving: Potatos!! I love the broccheese one from Jason's. Really, any kind of potato at any time of day is really, really great!

What I miss: Sleeping through the night

Sleep: See above...I'm also having those really weird, really vivid and real pregnancy dreams. Last night I dreamed some dude asked me to marry him and he knew I was already married and he was already married. He held a dinner and had his friends and family there and invited his wife and Blake too. It was so strange.


What I am looking forward to: Tuesday is my 3rd dr.'s apt and we will get to hear the heartbeat. I love that sound!


Symptoms: still just "growing pains" and things. Sore bubbies, occassionally I will feel naseaous but not all day like before

　

Total weight gain/ Loss {ya right}: i weighed this morning and I have lost a couple lbs actually

Maternity clothes? Yes...jeans/pants just cause they are so comfy! And, semi-necessary at this point. I just let it all hang out. woohoo

Have you started to show yet? just a tad...nothing major. people probably can't tell if i'm just getting fat or not

Labor signs: No

Belly Button in or out? In

Wedding rings on or off? On

Mood? feeling good.

Things to Remember...

I'm keeping a short posts of things we really hope to never forget about Anna. Blake asked me the other day, "You're writing this stuff down, aren't you." "Yes, dear. Yes, I am." :)

Anna says Look at the... like, "Look a la!" Like, "Look a la moon!" and "Look a la tree!" It's really cute how she says it.

When she wants to fix my hair she says in a chinese accent, "Let me fick ya hai" :) Lol!

If I moan or take a deep breath she runs over and asks, "Momma, your tummy (or sometimes says belly) hurt? Hurt cause the baby?" and of course she always tells us "My tummy hurts!" and we ask why and she says, "Cause of the baby...." Ha!

Um....that's all I can think of now that we recently talked about it. :)

Baby changes: Fetal growth is rapid now. In the next 3 weeks crwon-to-rump length of baby doubles.Fingernails also appear this week. external genitalia are beginning ot show distinguishing features. In a nother 3 weeks development of the fetus into a male or female is completed.

Best Moment this week: We went to Iowa Wed-Saturday and Anna got to meet her great grandma Kathyrn June, one of the special ladies she's named after. She got to see her Grandpa D again and meet for the first time her aunts and uncles and cousins. It was a great trip. She loved flying and did really well!

Gender: Unknown

Food Craving: I'd say it's Italian again...I always love pasta though! But, I CRAVED spaghetti with Anna! :) This time it's just anything savory and salty but pasta can always hit the spot.

What I miss: I've been feeling really well. Maybe once a week I feel really blah but I'm not really as tired as I was with Anna and not that naseaous anymore. Yay!

Sleep: Well, last night it was wonderful because we were back in our own bed! PTL!


What I am looking forward to: next Tuesday is my 3rd dr apt and we will get to hear the heartbeat. Then, only 1 more regular apointment and then we find out the gender!!


Symptoms: I'm getting lots more "growing pains" and can feel my belly streching and stuff. I'm tired but not exhausted, and overall just feeling pretty great!

　

Total weight gain/ Loss {ya right}: I think a lb or 2
Maternity clothes? Yes...jeans/pants just cause they are so comfy! And, semi-necessary at this point. I just let it all hang out. woohoo

Mood? feeling good. I'll admit I'm a lot more snappy and a lot lower than my already low tolerance for people who are annoying. :o

Pregnancy Week by Week: 10 weeks

Just like I did with Anna I'm going to weekly keep up with this baby and it will be cool to look back on the week I was pregnant with Anna and this baby to see how they are similar and different.  How Far Along: 10 weeks

What I miss: feeling 100% i am getting better, this past sunday marked a turn but i've been nauseaous pretty bad this pregnancy and like i said earlier if i don't have food i get sick.

Sleep: Ok...until my bladder wakes me up and I shuffle to the bathroom and then I'm up and it's hard to go back to sleep


What I am looking forward to: Our trip coming up to Iowa with Anna. It's her second plane trip but her first she was only 3 months old and slept the whole way and was perfect. I'm a little more nervous this time around.

Things to remember...

Not long but I have to keep track of wonderful things out of the mouths of babes!

Last night at dinner we asked Anna to pray. Her prayer before meals at school is, "ABC, 123 Thank you God for feeding me." But, Anna said, "Jesus, thank you for our food. Amen." All by herself. It made Blake and I so happy that she is learning so much about Jesus and His love and providing for us.
