12 Weeks!

Today I am officially 12 weeks! The baby is about the size of a small tomato. He/she (though I'm pretty sure it's a she... Nathan, of course, thinks it's a boy) is moving like crazy inside me, I just can't feel it, yet. I should be able to start feeling movement in about 4 more weeks!
I told my students that I was pregnant today and they were so excited! One little girl teared up she was so happy and there was lots of belly rubbing (I'm still trying to get used to that!). I can't believe they were surprised. I thought for sure they already knew!

Weekly Update

I hope everyone is having a wonderful Memorial Day weekend. I am resting today after a long past few days, and am so glad to have tomorrow off. As of Friday, I am 11 weeks and our baby is the size of a large lime. This week we are developing hair follicles, fingernails and toenails, and teeth buds. This is such an amazing process!

Doctor's Appointment

I had my monthly doctor's appointment yesterday afternoon, and I am happy to report that everything went fine! It took what seemed like forever to find the heartbeat, but when we finally heard it, it was probably the most wonderful sound I have ever heard. My next appointment is on June 17th.
Nathan and I are counting down the days until school is out. Only 7 more days!!! We can't wait to spend the summer in our new house :)

First Post

Hey you guys! I thought I would try this out so I can keep everyone up to date on how everything is going.
As you all know, we are very excited to be expecting our first baby on December 11, 2009! As of this past Friday, I am 10 weeks. I have my 2nd appointment tomorrow and am very eager to go! I know everything will be fine, but I will feel much better when we hear that little heartbeat again.
I'll be sure to let everyone know how the appointment goes :)
