Less than 2 weeks....

Well we have less than 2 weeks left 'till we are out of the first trimester!!! I am counting the days hoping I will be one of those preggos that gets out of the first trimester sickness. Yep still sick! I am eating so much- literally every two hours to help fight off the sickness but mostly I have to or my stomach starts having loud conversations it is embarrassing! I can't believe how hungry I can get in such little time after I eat....so strange to me still. I am still having some cramps; however, the worst is back pain. My mom asked me today, "what did you do to your toe?", then I realized I am walking like an old woman with this back pain!

Still pretty tired, but not as bad as before- I can actually go a whole day without feeling like I need a nap....trying to cut back on the napping so I can sleep better, correction- TRY to sleep better! I cannot get comfortable, tossing & turning and right when I do get comfortable I have to pee! I average 2 to 3 times a night having to get up and use the restroom- and boy it is dangerous!! I am usually half asleep trying to navigate and hit a shoulder, arm or leg on one of our closet doors. I have been stubbing my toe on our scale- every time I do it I ask myself why I haven't moved it yet....(thanks Amy for the reminder!). One night I hit the closet door so hard Mike woke up- he figured out what happened and that I was okay and then we both laughed...one of the only funny symptoms/situations I can laugh at thus far!

This week two friends have and are currently giving birth! Skyla gave birth to a handsome little man, Tyce. He is such a sweet baby and mom is recovering at home and amazingly has been getting more sleep than expected! Lauri was induced Saturday evening and still no baby. She might have had it but no word yet from them. Lauri is having a boy too and surly will be a cutie pie! Holding Tyce was a real eye opener. It was crazy to think in 7 months that is where we will be!  So amazing! Speaking of boys - it seems like everyone is having a boy- except my friend Meg in Orlando- she is the only one on team pink! Mike and my mom think I am going to have a girl.....main reason- that folk saying that girls take your beauty....this baby has made me feel and look like I am 13 all over again with some nice acne! Fabulous!  We will find out the sex probably the last week of Dec- the 30th or first week of Jan.! Whatever the baby is girl or boy we just hope he/she will be healthy and happy!!
