First Appointment

Our first appointment went great! We got to see the little peanut and it's heartbeat, which was at 182 beat per minute. Sounds like another girl. haha We met with Melanie and she said that every looks great and she is not worried at all. She is so confident that she said that she doesn't even need to see me back at my 12 week check up. I go back at the end of March and I can't wait to hear the heartbeat again! Oh and she gave me the same due date that I was thinking...September 18th...probably October 2nd (Maw Maw's birthday)!

Telling everyone

Mommy told Maw Maw, Paw Paw, and Aunt Missy on our Anniversary and daddy told Gi, Grandpa, and Aunt Jennifer the next day. We told a couple more people (Ms. Julie, Mrs. Tracey, Mr. Brent, Mrs. Misty, and Mr. Peter) right before the ski trip. Then after our first appointment we decided that we could start telling everyone.

Skiing

This baby has already been on the slopes!!!!
I had to go in to see the midwives right after I found out that I was pregnant so that they could check all my levels with blood work. While I was in there I said something about us having a ski trip planned but how I was not going to ski now. She told me I would be fine...so up on skies I got. This kid better be a skiier b/c I was a serious trooper on this trip. At one point I had to run to the bathroom b/c I thought I was going to be sick and an hour later I was skiing (well what I call skiing) again.

Morning Sickness

I started with morning sickness around the end of January...and I felt sick most of the day! It was really hard for me to get out of bed...bootcamp was a joke and poor Madeline had no one to play with! I finally started to feel better this past Saturday while I was in Lafayette. I am glad to be back to normal (for the most part) and a fun mommy to Madeline again!

Happy Anniversary

The weekend after we found out was our Anniversary weekend so I got/made us this cake!
We celebrated both wonderful events in our lives that night with Madeline!

Life After A Loss

On January 14th we found out that we were blessed with another life in my belly. I woke daddy up early before I went to bootcamp to tell him the news. We were both very excited! I wanted to yell it from the roof tops, but thought that maybe we should wait awhile. I wanted to make sure this time we had a true miracle.
