Feeling Sluggish/Vacation/Update

I'm ready to get up and start exercising again unfortunately the Dr. says NO. Once I'm into the 2nd trimester and into the "safe zone" he said I can even start walking.... Uhh hello I'm pregnant not handi-cap!!I feel sluggish and tired all of the time and I feel like some moderate exercising will help give me some energy. After a full day at work I come home, cook dinner, hit the couch and lights out!


Our week long vacation is quickly coming to an end... Although we spent most of our time completing project around the house it was a great week and I'm sad to see it end! I've gotten so used to sleeping in and spending so much time with Sean. Going back to work is going to be super hard. Well until I win the lottery.... I gotta keep working!
We spend 2 full days painted the house another full day of cleaning. I'll be happy if I never see another paint brush again!!! I'm glad that its done but my goodness was that a lot of work!


Baby update!


So we've entered into the 2nd trimester and into the safe zone!!! As of today I am 12weeks 5 days. It's been an amazing 3 months and we can't wait to find out if we are having a boy or a girl. At this weeks doctors appointment I was able to see the baby bouncing around in the ultrasound. It was the greatest feeling ever!
Sean brought home a fetal doppler monitor and we've been listening to the baby's heartbeat every night. It's so neat to be able to hear our baby's heartbeat while he/she is in my tummy.
Our next doctor's visit is on July 22, hopefully we will find out the sex of the baby then.

Oh and the great part.... Walking! I can start walking, of course after all the darn rain stops!
Love you all bunches and bunches!!!
XOXOXOXOXO

My love affair...

The first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem, right? Well I have a HUGE addiction to Reese's Peanut Butter Cups!! I can't get enough of them.

They are on my mind constantly. Before being pregnant I was never a big fan of chocolate and now all I think about it sweets. They are way too accessible! At work we have a candy drawer overflowing with sweets. Literally, its a 2 drawer file cabinet loaded with sweets!
Last weekend at the grocery store I caved in and bought 6 of these bad boys...

I did limit myself to only eat one a day and Sean did eat a couple of them. So there, I made myself feel better!! Go figure my pants are feeling a little snug... I'm going to continue to blame it on the baby for now.

So friends and family in you want to win my heart.... you can send me Reese's peanut butter cups!

Lots of Love!!

Our Road...

Today I was invited to follow someones family blog and it made me stop and think... Yep I do that every once in awhile. I figured this would be a great way for everyone to follow us down the road to becoming PARENTS! We are both so very excited about starting a family and encourage you to follow us through the next 7 months.

As most of you know for years we prevented having children like it was the plague! If we would have known it was going to take so long to get pregnant I think we would have started years ago. Well, better late than never!

As of today we are 9 weeks and 1day into the "baking" of Baby Webster.
Here are a couple of the latest pictures of the baby.
June 3, 2010 - 8 wks 4 days
