Wow! It has
been SO long since I've blogged. :) So much to share, now that I
finally have a little more energy to get on here... since I'm 12
weeks Pregnant!!! :) We are so very excited and so happy and
blessed to be the parents to this little one! Spending lots of time
praying and researching names... there is so much in a name and Leif
and I really take the meaning of names so seriously, and so enjoy
that aspect of naming our baby!
I am SO happy
about being almost through my first trimester!! (Seriously, you have
no idea...) It's been pretty rough with the sickness and nausea and
trying everything to try to feel better. I seriously have the most
amazing husband on the planet taking care of me. I haven't been able
to do hardly anything in the kitchen without being sick, and grocery
shopping is totally out- so he has really picked up my slack in those
areas... actually, every area. I really haven't felt well enough most
of the time to do anything. I guess it runs in the family- my mom had
it even worse with me! Thanks, Mom for all you went through
with me.... I seriously had no idea what you meant when you told me
you were really nauseous having me....
12 weeks- size of baby! |
Yesterday and
today I have felt really good and have had a bit more energy. I can't
wait to get started organizing stuff... I have so much in my closet
that needs to GO! At 6 weeks- I gave away most of my clothes that
already weren't working for my body... but I feel like I'm getting a
little bigger everyday and I have even more to put in boxes, that I
don't feel comfortable in now. I'm loving my
maternity pants already- so so comfy on my tummy! :) I really
am enjoying seeing my belly really be a cute pregnant belly instead
of just feeling fat- like I have for most of the first trimester. My
baby's the size of a plum- about 2 inches! :)
Would really
appreciate prayers- as I try to keep good food, and my prenatal
vitamins down and for the nausea to totally go away soon! I would
love to start craving things- right now pretty much everything just
sounds really bad. Thanks so much!

the heartbeat!

Hi Arielle! I hope you are feeling much better, enjoying some 2nd (3rd now?) trimester energy and just being pregnant! It's been awhile but I would love to hear how you are doing. I am so happy for you getting to experience this beautiful thing, however hard it can be. We just welcomed baby Gavriel 3 and a half weeks ago and it has been such a delight. I can't believe we have two kids now! It seems crazy.
