Update

So I thought I would just update you all on how the pregnancy has been going so far. I have to say that I have been truly lucky and blessed this pregnancy. I swear, if I knew they would all be this great, I would have 18 kids! I was fortunate enough to have absolutely NO nausea or morning sickness. I was really exhausted (which is expected) for the first 12 weeks, then I got all my energy back and quickly began my nesting/organizing phase! I have been sleeping great with the exception of a few restless nights. I have had a cough for about 3 1/2 weeks now and am anxiously awaiting the end of that!

Lucky for Eric I have not really experienced any major emotional outbursts, however it does seem like it's a little bit easier to cry these days. I have been a little bit more clumsy and I forget EVERYTHING! As a matter of fact, I was typing this and I thought of something I wanted to say, and by the time I finished the sentence I was typing, I forgot what I wanted to say! Oh yeah, just remembered! I have not had any strange cravings so far. I guess I could say that I do eat a lot of Mexican food and chocolate, but those were my favorites before I got pregnant! I guess I justify eating more of it now! I think, unfortunately, that this baby is going to come out addicted to chocolate! Other than that, everything so far has been uneventful.

We are really looking forward to our trip to Cancun in 2 weeks and then we have another checkup after we get back. We started working on the nursery a little bit and put the crib together today. I felt like I was watching myself from far away because it is still so surreal that we are going to have a baby! We are so excited and again, are so thankful for all the support from family and friends that we have had throughout this process. We would not have been able to do it without you all!
