Preggo Tidbit #1

I am loving pickles right now! The smell, the taste, the crunch! I could eat them and eat them if they didn't make me so thirsty.

Also, coffee smells delightful again. I have only allowed myself one Starbucks "tall decaf nonfat/no whip mocha" thus far. I can have one caffeine a day if I want it!

Here's to feeling better! My color is back and people are noticing!

Reese is going to be a Big Sister!

We are super excited to announce that we are expecting our second child on November 6th! I'm 12 weeks! Reese doesn't know if she is super excited yet. When we ask her if she wants to be a big sister she says "No". When we ask her if she wants a little brother or sister, she usually says "No", but sometimes says she wants a little sister or little brother. I am hoping that when I start to show more she will get more excited. I also need to seek out some books that we can start reading together.

I'm feeling pretty good as the nausea has subsided, but I'm still quite tired. Matt says he feels great! I'm sure some of that is just because I don't have as much time to rest as I did before with Reese. This pregnancy is also different in that certain smells absolutley repulse me; I don't like any of my healthy food anymore and I'd rather eat some comfort food and I already feel movement (which may not necessarily be the baby, but just things shifting). I don't know if that is just because I am super aware of my body or just because it's the second time around and I am noticing things quicker. I'm already expanding and getting a slight bump, but most people can't really tell.

We will find out what we are having on June 18th...stay posted!

Spring is here!
