I guess I'm in that stage they call "Nesting." I've knitted a pair of baby booties and for a first timer I think they turned out pretty darn good! 

Viruses

I had a pretty bad weekend this past weekend. To keep it as un-graphic as possible we'll just say that I had a really hard time keeping ANYTHING down. I ended up going in to the doctor to make sure everything was okay and it turned out that I had somehow managed to get the flu. I didn't even think that was possible in May!! Since I was fairly dehydrated from not keeping anything down they hooked me up to an IV and gave me a bunch of fluids. I had never had an IV before and man alive I thought my arm was turning into an ice cube!! Ben had to explain to me that the fluids are room temperature and I am much warmer than 70 degrees :)
We did get to hear the baby's heartbeat while we were at the doctor. That was the first time we got to hear it. It took them at least five minutes to find it which got to be kind of scary, but once they found it that was pretty awesome. We didn't get to listen to it for very long - 3 maybe 4 seconds tops. I think the doctor was in a big hurry!
I am starting to feel better anyways. I am hoping that having the flu is the worst thing that happens during the pregnancy. Well, that's all for now. Enjoy this "beautiful" spring weather we're all having!

Bump

My belly looks like it's starting to pop out a bit. I really don't think that too much of it is the baby, but I am very limited to the number of clothes in my closet that I can still fit in to. I measured around my waist last night and I've added 6 inches to my waistline so far. I eat like crazy, so I'm sure that's where most of the inches are coming from. I practically pack up the entire kitchen to bring to work with me each day so I don't starve!!
I have been feeling better as far as the nausea goes. I still get it at night once in awhile, but it has been much better than it used to be. I'm just hoping that it completely goes away one of these days.
That's all for now. Lots more to come...

Sleep?

Well, I think that I can call this past week "practice." I have not had any luck getting a good night's sleep! I'm hot and then an hour later I'm freezing cold. I think I've been waking up a minimum of three times a night to either put on another layer or take one off. I guess if things keep on going like this I'll be all set for those late night feedings and diaper changes :)

Our little one! The head is on the right and the rump is on the left!
