12 weeks!

Hooray!!  I'm officially through my first trimester :)  This pregnancy so far has definitely been different than my first.  I got a little sick with Caden, mostly in the second trimester.  This time has been the first.  I would get dizzy, short of breath, throw up, try to throw up, be super tired, just overall BLAH.   I've started to feel better the past week or two so I hope that continues and I can move past the crappiness and get some energy back!  Also last time at this point I had already gained 5 pounds.  This time i've lost a pound.  I can only eat a little bit at a time so I don't feel sick.  Also I have not been working out so I've most definitely lost muscle. :( boo!

I plan to start walking again on Monday.  It's cooler in the mornings so that definitely helps.  I havent started showing yet but I took a 12 week picture anyway :)  According to babycenter the baby is only about 2 inches long right now (the size of a lime) and weighs half an ounce. :)  I can't wait to feel the baby move!

I'm wondering if I'll be able to wait 20 weeks to see what we're having. LOL.  They have Image of a miracle here where you can check the gender starting at 15 weeks!  That's only 3 weeks away! I really want to know so I can start moving the rooms around and planning how to decorate the new baby's room!  I've already decided Caden is moving into what is now the guest room since it's already painted blue and I'll make his room kind of a red, white and blue all american theme. :) There's going to be a lot more room in there for him because i'll get rid of the guest bed so I'll be able to keep a lot of his toys in there too.  The way his current room is painted will make it really easy to decorate for either another little boy or a girl. :) so no repainting!  I'll just keep the guest bed stored in the garage until we move and hopefully whenever that happens we can get a 4 bedroom and have an extra guest room.  What? I can dream right?! LOL.
