11 weeks…

I am FINALLY starting to feel better!  This past weekend was pretty good.  NO nausea!  I am still feeling tired, but I would rather experience exhaustion instead of nausea any day!  I put up my Christmas decorations this weekend, and I even went to the mall to do a little Christmas shopping.  It felt good to be out somewhere else other than class or work.

I am feeling a little nauseous tonight, but not as bad as it has been.  I still have no appetite.  Eating is not really enjoyable yet, but at least I’m not puking it up!

I won a contest from George Street Photo!  They are the company that did my wedding photos.  I wore customized sneakers that I made for my Wedding.  Here is a picture of the winning photo!

I have to share this amazing video I saw.  It’s about what babies actually learn before they are even born…

Here is my belly pic of 11 weeks!  Still not really showing yet …

And here is a video of baby’s progress!

10 weeks …

I stayed home this Thanksgiving.  I haven’t had an appetite for food in weeks.  My nausea seems to have plateaued, but it still feels like a chore to eat, and the smell of certain foods still upsets my stomach.  Aaron went to his parents for Thanksgiving dinner.  I stayed home and put up my Christmas tree :)  I haven’t yet put the ornaments on, but the tree and lights are up!  Aaron put up the outdoor Christmas lights the other day.  I love the old fashioned look of the large Christmas bulbs outdoors.  I would like to get a vintage plastic Santa Clause for outside, too :)  I will post pictures of my Christmas tree and decorations soon!

I was able to make Aaron some Thanksgiving side dishes, and turkey breast.  I have to say, I really really love my stuffing and deviled eggs :)

Oh I hope and pray that by Christmas I will have an appetite!  A huge appetite so I can make lots and lots of holiday food!  Christmas cookies!  A gingerbread house!  More stuffing and deviled eggs!  A honey baked ham!  Crescent rolls!  Goodness I wish I had an appetite for this stuff NOW!
Here is baby’s progress this week! …
Here is my 10 week belly pic.  I know there hasn’t been any difference in tummy size yet :(  Hopefully once my appetite comes back we will start noticing a difference!

Very First Ultrasound ♥

It was a cold and rainy afternoon today as Aaron and I drove to our second Doctor appointment, and had our very first ultrasound ♥

It looks like we have one happy and healthy baby with a nice strong heartbeat inside my tummy!
It looks like a little peanut with feet! :)
