Happy 2nd Birthday Carmen!


We had a great day at the Memphis Zoo yesterday. Took great pics but unfortunately some of them didn't get saved onto the camera. Hate it when that happens!

Week 13

Carmen has a birthday coming up in just a few short days. Can't believe she is turning 2! Where has all the time gone?

Its Week 13 for me. I went to see the doc this week for a regular checkup and to hear the baby's heartbeat but the handheld machine wasn't working correctly and she couldn't pick it up. So she sent me next door where I got to see the baby on an ultrasound machine! It was so exciting! At 12 weeks, the baby really looks like a baby. 2 arms, 2 legs, everything appears to be normal physically. We still won't know the sex for another month or two.

I'm Back

Wow, its been a long time since I've posted anything on here. But its not from a lack of interest. Today marks my 12th week of being pregnant! I have been waiting this long to break the news, as the first 12-13 weeks are the most critical in pregnancies of anything bad happening. I think we are in the clear now.

I have been battling morning and evening sickness for the past month. Its hard to eat or drink anything and the smell of any food makes me nautious. I have lost 15 lbs. (the hard way) but this is all normal and is exactly what I went thru with my last pregnancy. Those pounds will come back, unfortunately.

For anyone interested, I will be posting a link every week to my favorite pregnancy website which sends me weekly emails. These emails explain exactly what is going on with my baby and my body. Tons of info!

Here is Week 12:
