Hey... There's a baby in there!


This week was a BIG week!  We finally go to see the doctor, but more importantly, we finally got to see sweet Baby O!  The doctor actually had a hard time finding the heartbeat so we went in for an ultrasound and got some keepsake photos of what Kevin and I are affectionately calling alien baby.  Baby O is looking great and is even measuring a week ahead so we are now officially at 11 weeks and will move over to 12 weeks on Wednesday!  I will take everyday we can get.

Other than that, this week was fairly slow.  I did interview for a promotion which happened really fast, but I am leaving town in a matter of minutes and will be working in Denver all week so they had to fit me in prior to leaving.  Lots of changes in the Ool house!  Also, this week we made the pregnancy "facebook official."  It was really exciting to let friends and family know that we are expecting.  We had been fairly cautions waiting until we got a thumbs up from the doctor, but finally getting to post our amazing pictures and tell the world our news was heartwarming.  Our closest family members have been so supportive already, but it was really nice to hear all the kind words and congratulations from friends so thanks to everyone who let us know that they are just as excited as we are.

That's all I have for this week since I am headed to the airport in a few minutes...onto the FAQ.

Are you feeling sick?:  Not at all.  Feeling great!

Are you sleeping?: Still uncomfortable at night, but my new pillow arrives this week.  I think it will be the most life changing thing to happen until Baby O arrives.  :)

What was the best moment this week?:  Making our news official was pretty awesome.

Do you miss anything?: Still cocktails.  I would have like to celebrate with a beer instead of a sprite after our visit to the doctor's office, but sprite it is.

Any cravings yet?:  Still struggling with having much of an appetite, but hey... no weight gain yet so I guess I will take it.

Do you want to know if Baby O is a boy or a girl?: Oh yeah!

Any other symptoms?: Have been feeling great for weeks now so I am just keeping my fingers crossed that it stays that way.

Mood lately?:  Work has been stressful so that has had me a little scattered, but outside of that, I am afraid I have entered the "emotional" phase of this pregnancy meaning that for some reason I was crying at music videos at about 5:30 am before heading to the gym... yeah, I am that girl.

What are you looking forward to?:  Now that we are 100% sure there is a baby in there I can't wait to find out the sex so we can begin doing some serious shopping.

Baby Bump?:  Getting rounder by the day.  Depending on what I am wearing, I actually look pregnant some days.

Need any maternity clothes?:  Holding out.

Have a great week everyone!
