A little Kick

Maternity clothes? Shirts for sure, my pants don't really fir either way

 Stretch marks? No


Sleep: Great minus the 3am potty break, however I am starting to get to where I can't sleep on my belly


Best moment this week: Getting a little kick on Tuesday!

 Miss Anything? Not really


 Movement: I felt a kick on Tuesday morning, it was perfect timing because I was starting to stress about the upcoming school year.

 Food cravings: Homemade french fries, doughnuts (chocolate from Publix because there is no Krispy Kreme) and lemonade ... although not all at the same time



Anything making you queasy or sick: The smell of dog food and bacon grease

Belly Button in or out? Neither its flattened out


Wedding rings on or off? On


Happy or Moody most of the time: Moody but I really want to be happy

Luckly Little Seminole

So I found a template thing to try out with this baby blog. Here goes!

How far along? 12 weeks and 4 days


Total weight gain/loss: loss of 2 lbs

 Maternity clothes? Sorta, most pants don't fit so I am wearing some of my maternity jeans that have the low waist band but they are starting to hurt now. Thankfully it is warming up and I can wear dresses!!!

 Stretch marks? No!


Sleep: Something I want to do all the time! Most of the time I sleep well but I always get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. I don't remember this starting this early when I was pregnant with McKenzie.

 Best moment this week: FSU winning the ACC Championship! I rubbed Baby Seminole #2 for good luck right before we made the free throws to go up by 3.

 Have you told family and friends: Yes!

 Miss Anything? Green Veggies, picking up McKenzie

 Movement: Not yet, I thought I felt flutterings on Sunday but not sure

 Food cravings: In the past - fried chicken but now it is gross, rice with soy sauce and home made french fries (but not at the same time)

 Anything making you queasy or sick: Green Veggies, although I did make little green peas the other day and not get sick; bone in fried chicken

 Have you started to show yet: Yes, I could still pass as chunky but its a baby belly for sure!

 Gender prediction: At the moment I have no clue...boy is what McKenzie keeps telling us so I'll go with that
Labor Signs: No 


Belly Button in or out? In


Wedding rings on or off? On


Happy or Moody most of the time: Moody- between being extremely tired and crazy 8th graders I'm pretty cranky. I'm happy at home though!


Looking forward to: March Madness (who knew I'd like college hoops so much) and PawPaws 80th bday party in Pensacola this weekend!

The last month - and some pictures

Well I am almost done with the 1st trimester so that means I have energy again! Baby Seminole #2 is doing great. Mommy has gone through some sickness and been really tired but its all worth it. By this time when I was pregnant with McKenzie the only pregnancy symptoms I had were extreme fatigue, extreme aversion to chicken and a few tight shirts and skirts. Now I'm 11 weeks and 3 days and again I've had extreme fatigue but my aversion is to green veggies and there are so many smells I can't stand. I've also poked out at this point. Most of my dress clothes don't fit... they are either too big or too small. But like I said, its all worth it.

We went for my 1st official OB appointment on Feb. 23 and I was so worried something was going to be wrong. I know of so many people who have had miscarriages I was so worried it would happen to me. Well, while we were in there it was difficult to hear the heartbeat. Apparently the midwives could hear a really faint one but I couldn't hear anything. The funny thing is that even while they were moving the doppler all around on my belly to find the heartbeat I wasn't worrying. I knew that God is in control and this baby is going to be ok. I wish this calm had been over me before the appointment. The good thing about not getting a real strong heartbeat was that we got to do a quick ultrasound! It is amazing how much the baby has grown and changed in 3 weeks.

I have some pictures of the baby and my belly. I plan on updating once a week from this point on. I saw a really cute idea of this blog on pinterest so we'll see.
