I’m in week 14. The popular reading material says, “Your baby is 3.4 inches long by pregnancy week 14, and likely weighs close to 1.5 ounces! Every day of your pregnancy week by week your baby is growing more and more proportional.”

I have my energy back. Woo hoo. Now it’s time to get in shape although my body is starting to protrude in areas that I’m not use too. Tomorrow I plan on swimming, but I’m scared to put on a swim suit. Hahahah. I’m going to teach a friend of mine how to swim so that will take my mind off my growing bulge.

In other worldly news. Ryan comes in town this weekend and we’re excited. Going to hit up a camp site close to Leavenworth called icicle creek (Leavenworth is a bavarian themed town. You can check it out here). He has a crazy flight. Gets in Friday at 11:30pm and leaves Sunday at midnight. Can’t wait to hang with him.

Peter says meow.

Not really much of a post, but I laughed pretty hard when Eli said this to me in the shower this morning.

“…But the cats will be surrogate parents to the baby!”

So the our first ultrasound is done! Everything looks good. It was so amazing to see our little “project” wiggling around in there. For those interested, we were mainly there to do testing for birth defects such as down syndrome or neural tube problems ( spina bifida? ). The results of the ultrasound have reduced our risks dramatically, and after the results from the blood test come back, we’ll know almost for certain that everything will be ok.

Until I figure out a more elegant way to post pics, this will just have to do..

In other news:

Check this guy out.  What a name!

I was suppose to keep a journal of my progress, that’s what all the recommended books say, but I got lazy and really my first two month it would have gone something like this, “today I was nauseous all day, I ate a pack of saltines, I laid on the couch, read and fell asleep early.” So there you have it. As for food I’m still eating the same things except the little booger won’t let me eat pizza and other foods give me diarrhea…exciting. This week my book says I’m going to be really gassy. Wow pregnancy is so glamorous.

So Wednesday is our ultrasound and hopefully we get a good picture of peli to post. Maybe she’ll give a peace sign..hahah.

In other news I went white water rafting and did just fine…it was only a class 3 or 4….no problem. I’m also at 13 weeks now and my belly is a little bigger than normal.
