My Mom is the Best.

So Hubby, Girly and I went on a whirlwind tour this weekend. We drove to Philly to see Hubby's family Thursday night. Left there at 3am to start the drive up to see my family on Friday. Left mid-day Saturday to see my high school friends, some of whom I haven't seen in 9 years! We finally headed South again on Sunday...

But the best part of this tour was seeing my mom. And not just seeing her, but seeing her so excited about the baby! She was so cute about my tummy. She carried up front and started showing within seconds of conception too! This made me feel so much better about how huge I am getting. We spent some time at a neighborhood cocktail party. Many of the guests were a little surprised by my bump (at a mere three months along), but my mom just smiled and said that our family always shows early. So there :-)

Weekly Update

I am 14 weeks today! Sorry, no belly picture...

Total weight gain/loss: Not sure... afraid of the scale...

Maternity clothes? Still loving my stretchy skirts, but they are starting to get tighter.

Sleep: I slept really well all weekend on a new mattress at my parent's. And then not so great on my mattress at home. Time for an upgrade?

Best moment this week: Seeing my family for the first time since we got pregnant! Everyone is so excited, which I've known, but it's so nice to see! My mom was so cute about my tummy too, and totally justified my hugeness. "We carry up front!"

Movement: Maybe??

Food cravings: I want pizza sooooo badly, but the tomatoes still aren't agreeing.

Gender: Still no clue. Still slightly leaning toward boy.

Labor Signs: I hope I don't have an update for this one for a loooong time.

Belly Button in or out? In. And deep.

What I miss: Pizza. And tomatoes in any form.

What I am looking forward to: Next appointment - on Wednesday!

Weekly Wisdom: Don't try to drive a total of 19 1/2 hours in one weekend. And certainly don't skip lunch while attempting this drive!

Milestones: Second trimester!!
