Here We Grow... Again!

If you don't know what I'm talking about, allow me to refer you to the very first entry of this here bliggity blog...

That's right, our little family of three is soon to be a family of 4. 

This time, I'm starting a little late on the blog.  Let's just say that trimester 1 was a bit of a doozie.  Like, Kelly=completely useless lump on a log, losing weight, having crazy dreams, doozie.

Let's catch up. 

Here is a survey (as seen in pregnancy 1) for the first portion of the pregnancy and then I'll get us caught up on today.

-How far along? 0-17 Weeks
-Maternity clothes? No. But, people have noticed my bump since week 12.
-Sleep: Glorious sleep! Cameron is up to 11.5 to 12 hours a night.  That has been wonderful!  He's already a great big bro!
-Best moment this past (number of) weeks:  I have obviously had a lot!  Finding out we are preggers, telling people, seeing little baby pictures, and more!
-Movement: Not yet.
-Food cravings: Keep the food away from me.  Seriously. 
-Gender: We have joked (please emphasize the word JOKED) that this baby must be a girl because a boy couldn't be pumping this many horomones through one person.  Haha.
-Labor Signs: No
-Belly Button in or out? In.
-What I have missed: Feeling human.
-What I have been looking forward to: 2nd trimester (hopefully feeling better)
-Weekly Wisdom: So already this time I am way more laid back with everything that stressed me out last time.  So far, I like that feeling better! 
-Milestones: Recently I was able to brush my teeth in the am without it making me too sick!  Getting Better!

I don't have the ultrasound pics on my computer this time, but I have been doing a good job of posting bump pictures!

17 Weeks at the farm

 Alicia- I tried to put my math problem on and failed.  Remind me to ask you to help me with that!  :)

Okay, so that leads us to today...  Today we are 18 weeks pregnant!!  Woo hoo!

-How far along? 18 Weeks
-Total weight gain/loss: So, I went to GA this past week for Thanksgiving.  Feeling better and all, I did some SERIOUS eating, so I'll be getting back to you on this one once things settle down a bit.
-Maternity clothes? Yes.  Perhaps partially because of my baby's twin, the food baby.
-Sleep: Like a baby!
-Best moment this past week: Any moment at the farm.
-Movement: Yes.  I have felt it earlier this time around, and it's for sure.
-Food cravings: Same old same old.  Coca cola.  However, I haven't been as addicted to french fries this time, yet I have been way into sweet treats.
-Gender: If we're going to go all wives-tales, then sweet cravings mean girl.  Still a 50/50 though.
-Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In.
-What I miss: Not really missing anything this week.
-What I am looking forward to: Seeing Cameron with the new baby.
-Weekly Wisdom: Now that I am back to eating, I can drop the "whatever I can keep down mantra" and start focusing on eating well. 
-Milestones:  Feeling movement.  Makes that first trimester totally worth it!

This week the baby is either a sweet potato or a bell pepper. Bell peppers are more colorful so I am going to go with that. He or she is 5 1/2 inches long and 7 ounces. We have fingerprints and our ears are in place! Caaa-ute!

Last thing...  I thought it was kind of fun to go back to last pregnancy's 18 week post and see what I was thinking, if you also think that this is fun then go here

I lied, here's the last thing, check out this sweet face!

Seriously cute kid of mine.
