19 weeks- I cannot stay full!

So I am having problems staying full lately! I never thought I would get sick of eating but it is becoming a chore. This morning alone I've had:

bowl of cereal
orange
mini muffins
bowl of oatmeal
banana
nutrigrain bar

(all before 11:30 am!)

At this rate, the baby is going to come out as a toddler ;) I'm starving again- so off to lunch!

19 weeks- It's a...

bird, it's a plane, no wait, it's a baby BOY!! How wonderful to see our beautiful baby for the very first time! We were amazed how much we could see with the black & white ultra-sound. He was a very active little guy, he flipped over a couple of times, he was standing on his head, kicking me with both legs at the same time and punching me to say hello! Quite talented I must say ;)  Certainly not camera shy, he lifted his face right up and opened his eyes (it almost like he was looking at us, so precious.) We also saw a side profile and he has the cutest little button nose. The ultra-sound ended up taking longer because the technician couldn't get him to hold still for the different pictures she took of him, but obviously this means he is healthy and so we are happy for this. I think we are going to have our hands full once he comes out but we are so excited to see him again :) We are going to try and scan the ultra-sound pictures in to post. 

17 weeks and I need some maternity pants!

I'm starting to look pregnant and not just like I've been eating too many donuts! 

Oh, and we find out the gender of our baby in a week and a 1/2!! We cannot wait :) 

15 weeks in Iowa

In front of my parents beautiful garden! We had a wonderful weekend in Iowa with our families. I'm happy to say that all the "night" sickness is long gone. I've been getting some nasty headaches in the mornings/early afternoons which I attribute to my caffeine withdrawal but that was common for me before pregnancy as well so nothing to be alarmed about.
