17 Weeks and 2 Pounds Later

I am starting show and this is what I look like nowadays. I'm still not in maternity clothes since I can get by with longer shirts and my pre-pregnancy jeans with a Bella Band. It's a whole 'nother story with work clothes so I caved and bought some maternity pants from Gap Maternity.

Almost 17 Weeks and Counting

It has been a very uneventful pregnancy so far. No morning sickness and no crazy cravings. I had my 16 week check-up on Friday and I've only gained 2 pounds! JUST 2 pounds!!! I'm really ecstatic about that. My doctor wasn't concerned on my lack of weight gain so I'm not going to sweat it.

We are scheduled to go back on February 24 for our big ultrasound :) J is still in denial that he wants a girl and I don't really mind either way as long as the baby is healthy. I can't believe that I'm this far along. It seems just like yesterday when I peed on that pregnancy test. We are both very excited and can hardly wait for the baby to come.

This is going to be an awesome year! The baby will be around by the time we celebrate our first wedding anniversary and the holidays will be even better.

Let the countdown begin!

At this point most of our family and close friends already know the news that J and I are expecting our first baby this coming summer! The last 6 months of 2008 was very busy and hectic. We started planning our wedding in the summer of 2008 and got married this past October. Three weeks after the wedding, we found out that we are pregnant!

We are very quick to say the least.

Hopefully, this blog will keep our family and friends updated with what's going on in our lives while we prepare for the birth of our baby.
