Feeling So Much Better (11 Weeks)

Well you will hear a lot less complaining this post, thank goodness! As of week 10 or so (last week) the nausea has subsided and the mind numbing exhaustion has gone! Praise the Lord! I am still pretty picky about what I eat, but nowhere near as bad as before. Anything that involves syrup (pancakes etc) is acceptable. Macaroni and cheese, yum. Any sort of red meat is good. Sweet stuff of course is always fine. I'm drinking a lot of sweet tea (as usual) or water with lemon. Really like that at restaurants. At home I try to flavor my bottled water with the bottle lemon stuff, although its not as good, lol. As for aversions, still can't eat my favorite lunch food, grilled chicken pita from guthries, and a lot of times salad I can't get down. Pizza has not been sitting lately either, boo. And the heartburn is here already, ugh.

So I have been awful taking belly pictures this time around. I have had a pooch since 6 weeks and I don't think its going away. Either this week or next my uterus is going to become too large to stay within my pelvis bones so I will probably just be trading bloat for actual belly, lol.

I got some cute shirts at the consignment store the other day (all for either a dollar or two!) and then we went to burlington and I got two really cute shorts and another shirt. So I'm doing good for now! I still would like another pair of pants and capris.

We finally made our 'official' announcement, on mothers day, hehe. Here it is:

The pictures came out so cute! Chloe is freakin adorable! Here are a few more:

Love them!! Here in a few weeks I'm going to do Jamie's prego pics, I can't wait. I have all kinds of ideas for her I've been finding on pinterest, love that place!!

Not a whole lot going on other then that. Lee was getting good side jobs in but now they have trickled to a stop. :( There is one really good opportunity if he can get it, but we re still waiting to hear. It's sad though because all of the money from the last one went straight to bills and car repair. Sigh. I'm going to try to pay a hundred at every baby appointment, but that will not put much of a dent in 2,500.

Oh, I have my next appointment tomorrow! I'm sure it will be pretty routine. Hear the heartbeat, how are you feeling, etc. Then tell me how my blood-work came out from the last appointment. I will be going by myself I'm sure. No biggie. I'm still excited though ;). It is killing me I still cannot find my home doppler to hear the baby. I have one, but its freaking DISSAPEARED! I have looked all over for it, Jamie was wanting to use it and for a couple months off and on I have searched for it. BOO. Lee thinks I loaned it out but everyone I have asked about it said they did not have it. Its in that flipping house somewhere, I wish it would come out! I think Chloe would think it really neat to hear her little bro/sister. Then let me listen to her heart. She is saying its a little sister, of course, haha. I'm pretty content right now, I was chomping at the bit to find out but I'm just chill now. I will be happy to know though so I can start looking at decorating ideas etc.

Well guess thats all, till later!
