Watching the Baby Belly Grow!

I suppose the blogging thing has gotten off to a bumpy start.  Ever since I have gotten pregnant, I have had little to no energy in the evenings.  In fact, on many nights, this is what I look like around 8:30...


I'm pretty sure that lump under the blanket is me.  

Anyway, I think my energy level is finally on the upswing so hopefully I will be making more regular entries on the blog! 

Another thing that seems to be improving around here is my appetite.  I must say, weeks 9-12 were pretty rough.  Most days it was difficult trying to find food that I could even stand the thought of eating.  And whenever I was hungry, it certainly wasn't for anything healthy.  Nope, it was for some sort of junk food like french fries, cheeseburgers, cheese breadsticks or corn dogs.  Thankfully, around Thanksgiving time my appetite started getting better!

In related news, my belly has been growing!   It is pretty amazing to me because even though I know I am pregnant and the morning sickness definitely made me feel pregnant, it is still hard to believe that there is a little baby growing inside of there.  It is so wonderful to see my belly grow because I know that means our little baby is growing too!

I don't think these pictures really show how much my belly has grown but maybe you can see a little bit of change.

(Weazer is always trying to sneak himself into the picture)

I am actually 15 weeks as of last Friday so I will try to post my 15 week update soon!

Finally, I will leave you with a picture of a pretty amazing guy.  I must say he has been a trooper so far... cleaning out the cat's litter box, running to the store to get me Tums, doing A LOT of the housework, and putting up with my pregnancy hormones ;)  I love you Eric!

Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise! Give thanks to Him; bless His name!
