19 weeks

  I am a major slacker but have been crazy busy! 

but we have exciting, exciting news!! and have known for a month now! 

We are having...

A BOY!!! 

 

 

 

 

 We are so very excited! =) His 19 weeks US was yesterday and everything looked so perfect =) We are very blessed!! <3 He has been measuring about a week ahead though so maybe that means he will come earlier than later =) Our due date was 11/26 off my LMP but then our first US showed 11/22-23 and then 19 week showed 11/20. So we will just be ready that WHOLE week for him =) 

I have been on summer break which has been nice but still so busy! Have been going to gym 3x a week and trying to eat healthy but still gaining quickly =P BOO! Was only hoping for 25lbs but looking like 35-40. =P Gunna try to start eating healthy and keep moving =) Hopefully body will slow down!

 Finally made it to 2nd trimester =) Isn't the sickness suppose to be gone and my energy come back? =P Still queasy and still tired! I finally had to start taking b6 to bite the naseaua a little bit because bleh!! =P Finally able to eat meat a little but still do not have my normal appetite back although I've been eating alot LOL mostly starving in mornings! 


My belly is growing but nothing too crazy, unless I eat alot =P I am hoping my weight gain is steady and slow. I am still fitting in my clothes and haven't had to break out maternity clothes yet (with exception of the dresses I bought earlier this month) so I think I am doing okay...HOPEFULLY! LOL I have been so busy with my monogramming business I've kinda let exereiscing slide...plus it is so stankin' hot outside =P but I have done it a few times this week. Not as much as I should I am sure.

My next dr appointment is June 3rd and that's just a healthy check up and then!!!! We get to see what we are having JUNE 4th!!!!! I am excited =)=) just sadly, no one can know until June 10th when my inlaws get back in town...boo!! I know I am going to slip and tell someone haha. Good thing I don't work that week...maybe I will just sit at home and keep quiet while making gender reveal box and taking Macyn's big sister to a little _______ photos =) We really should be worried about HER ratting us out hahah she would be the one to tell everyone! We will just blame it on her being 3 and not knowing what she is talking about =P

I really need to take photos =P I will probably regret it looking back on how small/big I was and comparing myself with how I was with Macyn.

  TODAY IS THE DAY!! =)

 

We get to see our baby today!! I am too excited! Macyn is too! 

Wednesday I recieved my doppler back from a friend and pretty sure that I heard baby boo's heartbeat. I am trying not to get tooooo excited but I am pretty sure it wasn't mine...soo eek! Guess we will see this afternoon! 

I just want ONE healthy sweet little gummybear swimming around in there!

This week has been a pretty good week =) I have felt better as far as the naseous feeling and being super tired so hopefully all is well and my hormones are just easying up on me =) Headaches come and go but nothing too bad. =) I think the excitement of seeing baby boo just has blocked out all the yucky feelings =P 

Here is a picture of me this week. Still look pretty much the same except for that BUMP in front =P but I love it! It's finally getting hard and not squishy! 

 

I worked out 2 times this week and still in my size 9/10 jeans so feeling pretty good although I know I have gained weight. =P I can see it in my face =P but hopefully once I hit 12 weeks I will feel amazing and start really wanting to work out more (plus will be on summer break and have nothing to do all day). I have made up my mind about going to gym every morning during summer time. I am planning on babysitting my cousins but those days we will swim all day and the others I will go to gym and do modified classes =) Maybe a little zumba and kickboxing =P which will hopefully help me stay within my 25-30 lb weight gain goal =)

This week hasn’t been too bad. I ‘ve been able to eat eggs again after a few weeks of being so bleh but at night I still can not eat meat. I actually dry heave at the thought of eating chicken. BLAHHH although I did eat chicken salad for lunch on day this week =P 

Baby has been craving cheese, salt and taco bell taco supremes =P I’ve only ate one though =) Good girl! I’ve been trying to eat healthier…but exercise has been none this week. =/ I’ve been busy and exhausted after school and getting on the elliptical is the last of my worries! I have tried to walk 10 mins after lunch and do some kind of dance exercise with my kiddos =P

Still able to wear my size 10 jeans although they are getting a little snug so I know I am not a HUGE cow yet but I am sure I have gained weight with my diet of pb&js, hot dogs, and grilled cheeses =P I will get better with diet though….hopefully after this queasy feeling goes away.
