bye-bye first trimester...


...hello "feel good" stage!

no, this is not the new craving. this is how BIG our bean is now!!! the size of a medium shrimp. we still call it "bean"...he/she'll always be our little bean.

speaking of our little bean. i had a vivid dream this week that we had a baby boy and he looked EXACTLY like petey!!! he was SO stinkin cute...with a full head of black hair and sweet, pouty, kissable lips!!! it goes without saying....i CANNOT WAIT to meet, hold, love on, kiss our little baby in 27 +/- weeks!




THIS is actually what i've been craving for the past 2 weeks. have i reverted to childhood?! is our baby going to grow up and only eat peanut butter and jelly and mac and cheese, like i did?! either way, i am salivating at this very sight right now!


week 13 has brought quite a pop to this baby belly. there is certainly no denying there's a baby in there. i must say, it's quite a crazy feeling to have no control over what's going on with your own body. however, i love showing off my baby bump in my clothes. people are already coming up to me and touching my stomach! it's funny how when you get pregnant, all personal boundaries go out the window. i don't mind though. especially when baby daddy rubs and kisses my baby bump! i think we're both getting really excited!




There they go...guess i have a few more weeks before i completely lose sight of my toes! :)


Happy weekend all! We get to hear our sweet baby's heartbeat in t minus 6 more days! :)

the first signs


I have always felt like I was "showing". Ever since we found out we were pregnant. I'm baffled by how quickly my body changed! Now that I'm nearing the end of my first trimester, I've been wondering where my "belly" has gone. I attribute it to all of the bloating the first trimester

brings. Man, the books weren't kidding! However, I do have a bump that stays no matter what! A little tiny BABY BABB bump!

11 1/2 weeks!

Bean is 1 1/2- 2 inches and is the size of a fig. A fig! How fun! Growing so much!! We get to hear baby's heartbeat again in 2 weeks. Nona will be here for that visit...I think she's just a tad excited! :)






Hubby and I took some pictures for Thursday when the news "goes public".
Thanks to Pinterest, I found some cute ideas.

Here's a sneak peek at a couple of the photos...
