A Monthly Update

I guess it's time for another update... we're not huge picture people, so we'll try and start working on it and get some prego pics up soon. But I thought I'd update on the pregnancy so far!

Weeks Along: I'm hitting 13 weeks tomorrow!

Weight Gain: Because of my sickness, I've stayed the same, but it seems that the weight on my fingers, arms and legs and has gone to my belly! (I'll enjoy that while it lasts...)

New Purchases: Two pairs of maternity jeans (love them!) and T-shirts in a bigger size. Hopefully Cam will let me steal his basketball shorts for a while. Other than that, just starting to collect maternity clothes from other mamas that are gracious enough to let me borrow them.

Morning Sickness: I'm happy to report that there haven't been any more trips to the hospital, and I now have more good days than bad days (Phenegran is a wonder drug, people!). I'm getting well enough to enjoy a [semi]normal diet again.

Food Cravings: Salty, sour, and sweet! But not chocolate sweet. AirHeads, Sweettarts, Sour Patch Watermelons, Salt and Vinegar potato chips, and pickles. The one weird craving is chicken strips and french fries. I feel great for hours after I eat a chicken tender platter from Angie's or Juniper Take Out.

Food Aversions: Eggs, white bread and really rich food. No spank you.

Cam is already so excited to be a Daddy and talks to Bug Jr. every night. He is wonderfully patient with me, and between all of the food cravings and mood swings, I know that it can't be an easy task!

Also, on a random note, Cam is going to sell security systems this summer, so we will be heading to St. Louis, Missouri on May 6th! We are looking forward to a fun adventure this summer. So if anyone is looking for a vacation spot this summer, make plans to come visit us!!
