That's right! Jeff and I are having a baby! We were VERY surprised but we can't be more excited. Well I should say now that the morning sickness is not taking over my life I am getting very excited.

| Proof!! Sorry if this is disturbing to you! :) |
This was me almost two weeks ago. I'm 16 weeks along in this picture and starting to get a little bump. I am now 17 weeks.
We have seen the heartbeat 3 times and have heard it twice. It is strong and fast!
The pregnancy so far has not been very easy. I got sick starting about week 5 and stayed very sick until week 16. Let me tell you it is not fun, but I am thankful now to be eating things other than saltine crackers!
Pregnancy Highlights this Week:
How Far Along: 17 weeks
Size of baby: {length of} a sweet potato, {weight of} boneless chicken breast
Measurements: 5 inches, weighs about 5 ounces
Baby Milestones: nervous system is maturing rapidly, the hearing has grown and will be able to hear more sounds, learning the art of yawning.
Best Moment this week: our contract being accepted on a house we are potentially buying!
Gender: find out VERY soon!!
Movement: Not feeling anything yet
Food/Drink Craving: burritos! Yes this started yesterday and it is the first craving I have had. Not just any burrito but and ground meat, bean and cheese burrito! YUM!
Sleep: I have good nights and bad nights. Good nights I only wake up once to go to the bathroom and am comfortable. Bad nights I am tossing and turning and can't get very comfortable, plus I get up at least twice to use the restroom. I have also had some weird dreams too.
What I am looking forward to: lots of things coming up: finishing teaching, going to hawaii
to see my brother and sister in law, finalizing things on the house.
Symptoms: can tired be a symptom. If so I am the queen of tired!
So let the games begin.... what do you think I will be having? A boy or a girl?
