BABY ON BOARD

Well, I guess now is a good time to announce that WE ARE EXPECTING!!!! I couldn't be happier. We have told a few people already as we have seen them, but have not made an announcement. I wanted to wait until I was at least 12 weeks so we could feel a little more secure. We have told Chase and he likes to say he is having a "baby sister!" We will see if he is right. I feel like I have so much to get done, but so little energy to do any of it! I'm just hoping to stay out of the hospital with this pregnancy. As many of you know I spent about 3 months hospitalized when I was pregnant with Chase. Although it was well worth it in the end, I would hate to have to go through that again (especially with Chase at home this time around!) Here is a snapshot of what's going on.
Pregnancy Highlights:
How Far Along: 12 Weeks
Size of baby: Baby B is the size of a lime
Total Weight Gain/Loss: Gained 11 lbs Boo!!! (luckily didn't gain any from 8 week appt! Whew!)
Maternity Clothes: Not yet but I'm going to need them very soon
Gender: Can't wait to find out!
Movement: Not yet
Sleep: I'm nauseous all night and get up to pee about 2 times a night 
What I miss: my energy- I hate being sooo tired!!!
Cravings: Mexican food (Qdoba, Chipotle, tacos at home!)
Symptoms: I'm still sick all day every day but it seems to be getting a little better!!
Best Moment this week: Hearing the heartbeat at my appt today
