IOU

To come:
~Valentines Day
~Birthday
~Family and baby pictures
~fun stories
~and perhaps some ranting and raving.

Small update: Morning sickness=no fun so no blogging for Jen BUT it is the coolest throw up ever. Yea for pregnancy! I am 13 weeks this week, hopefully that energy and appetite most tell me will come back will finally come back. Pregnancy has treated me better than the South Beach diet did. I am down 20 lbs since Jan 16th. It's good for me that I have that to lose, or I would worry, instead I can just enjoy fitting into that sweater I bought I thought I'd never really fit into. For now anyway :) I can't wait to be bigger and to be able to feel Baby G move. Our next appointment is on the 1st of April. I will be 16 weeks and our Dr. said he could tell us what we are having. I ask, isn't that really early? I guess we'll see. Grandpa told me today that I better be growing "one with a stick."

Classy Grandpa. Thanks.

I still can't believe all of this is real.

Yay, morning sickness!! I'm sorry you haven't been feeling well, but it all worth it! Yes, 16 weeks is pretty early.. If you are growing a stick I bet you'd be able to see it! I'm excited to find out!! I'm excited for you! Good luck and I'll await your next post!

One with a stick? Have I mentioned how much I love your grandpa?

Rebecka Jeffs said...

lol about the stick!

You can actually tell as early as 13 weeks, but Ultra sound technicians suggest at least waiting till 16 weeks to make sure. I found out with Cohen at 16 weeks. We waited for the 20 week traditional US for Keira.

You'll be finding out the sex of your baby before me, unless I can talk my MW into making the appointment earlier.

Sorry you are sick. If you need me to drive Saturday, let me know. I guess i could help hold your hair if you have to barf out the window on the freeway. Haha.
Can't wait to know if you and Zach will have a boy or a girl:)

I fully hear you about the morning sickness; I am going on my 19th week and I STILL have all-day sickness. But hopefully you will be one of the lucky women whose sickness stops--as it should--at 13 weeks. I hope you are doing okay. Sounds like it's been rough if you've lost 20 ell-bees. I cannot wait to find out if you're having a boy or girl. You find out only a week after me--we're so N'sync. I love you. Hope you feel better soon.

I'm excited for all the "to come" updates but love this one. I've been wondering how you've been. I suppose I could call but if you've been sick like I'm sick when pregnant then phone calls only make it worse.

Hooray for 13 weeks!!! I told my parents you guys were expecting and they are thrilled for you as well. Who wouldn't be? What a lucky, lucky baby.

Linda said...

Morning sickness sucks! But you should start feeling better soon! I was usually feeling pretty good by 15 weeks!

I'm actually hoping you get one without a stick...Girls Rule!

Aubrey said...

Grandpa is my favorite. Of all time. Next to you of course.

I'm a little slow on the uptake...I haven't been on blogs lately. But I am so so so happy for you! What a blessing. You will be in my prayers and cheers of joy as you move forward! Yeah!

Bethany said...
