2nd Trimester!!

Yay, my baby is starting to look more real! No more creepy tail! I have a doctor's appointment next Monday, but it is still a bit too early to find out the sex (I will be just about 16 weeks). I'm seriously going crazy. Naming this baby consumes my thoughts. I google search baby boys names on a regular basis. I just feel like when I find out the sex, I need to have a name ready. I'm pretty sure we are set on our names, although they are subject to change. We are thinking Isla Elizabeth or Ethan David...those are our current favorites.

Next up is at least starting to turn the guest room into a nursery. We don't need to buy any baby furniture yet, but at least clear out the crap we don't need, paint the walls, and put up some curtains! It's very hard to find a time though, since Andy works weekends and I work during the week. Neither of us have the energy to take on such a big project in the evenings. Man I will be SO HAPPY when Andy finds a regular job with normal hours. Right now our project is on hold until my spring break, which doesn't start until April 3rd. By then I'll be nice and fat, but hopefuly I'll have more energy. I've still been pretty tired lately, and everyone keeps telling me the second trimester brings you so much energy. I'm keepng my fingers crossed that happens soon!

I have a lot more to say, but I hate trying to cram everything in one post. I'll try to be better at posting in the future!

I had a lot more energy in the second trimester... but I think that might be becuase I finally stopped throwing up! Don't worry you have lots of time to get everything done. I still can't believe are 14 weeks already, it seems like you just found out! I am sure so excited for you guys and I can't wait to hear what you are having... and the ways things go in our group I am gonna go out on a limb and say it's a boy!!

What happened to Brevin? Both of your current faves are adorable buddy.

I'll cross my fingers for Andy and the job thing... I can see how much that would help the stress level. Update soon (I know, who am I to demand that), I love hearing about your pregnancy!

Wow, that got considerably bigger from week 14! It really looks like a baby now and has quite long legs. A couple more weeks and you should start feeling some movements which I thought was the coolest thing ever! Keep the pregnancy updates coming, I love reading them.
