About Me

My photo
My name is Sonja, I am 23 years old, and happily married to my best friend, Chris (a.k.a Hubby Man). I love being with my family and friends, watching movies with the hubby(we are HUGE movie buffs), or curled up on the couch with a nice cup of coffee and my two babies. (pepper ann our rescue mutt, and Witten our pug). Life is an adventure to me, and every day I look forward for what is to come. Hopefully sooner than later our happy little family will be expanding, and I couldn't be happier!

11 weeks (It's Plum CRAZY!)

Oh My! growing so fast now! I practically live my life week by week just for the pictures. I am sure that when I really start showing, and my belly isn't changing size throughout the day, I will actually start to take pictures with my whole face! in all of these, you honestly don't want to see what I look like from the waist up! talk about bed head! hehe. I have been taking every picture at the same time every Thursday morning. trying to keep everything accurate. as of right now I have put on 1 whole pound, my Morning sickness is starting to subside, and my pants feel snug around the abdomen (mostly when I am sitting)

Hubby man says he can tell I am starting to show (just a little) I don't really see it yet... I can't wait for that day though! :)

I have been getting things ready for my gender reveal party. I really can't wait! in just 5-6 weeks I will know what my sweet baby is going to be! :)

How far along? 11 weeks
Total weight gain: 1 pound
Maternity clothes? nope
Stretch marks? none yet
Sleep: pretty good... except for on Monday nights!  night I wake up at three on the dot and CANNOT go back to sleep!
Best moment this week: no more morning sickness!!!! (or much less than the last six weeks)

Miss Anything? not having to live my life under so many restrictions!
Movement: they say it is too early..... but I swear I have been feeling very small flutters
Food cravings: hummm...not really craving this week, but I have really been NOT wanting, taco bell, mexican food, or ANY form of fried food! bleh!

8,9,10 weeks

I was 8 weeks, sill sick and still 0 pounds gained. dr. appt. went great. I had a pelvic exam and urine pregnancy test. he answered all my questions

Still no weight gain, still fighting morning sickness. I was still dying to know if it was twins or not. I have still been fighting morning sickness and fatigue. :( not my favorite. counting down the days to that second trimester!

this Saturday or town had a baby expo. all the baby related organizations and such got together and handed out information and tons of free stuff! I went with my mom and had such an amazing time!

one of the last booths we came to happened to be an ultra sound clinic. my mom just happened to notice, they were giving ultrasounds for only ten dollars! such an amazing deal! I downed a bottle of water and got in line.  was sad y sweet husband wasn't there, but I just couldn't wait any longer! :)

my baby's first picture! They couldn't hear a heart beat yet, but you could see it beating away. I was so happy, I cried. that was the single most amazing moment of my life. :)

Wednesday I had another ultrasound scheduled at another local clinic. this one hubby man was actually going to see :)


Heart Rate was 171! very strong and very healthy! hubby was amazed, and I was so happy! my next ultrasound isn't until 20 weeks! that will be forever! I miss seeing my little baby already. the tech said I was measuring nearly a week ahead, but she didn't recommend changing my due date. and I am starting t plan my gender reveal party :) I really feel like we have a baby girl, but would not be sad if there was a sweet little boy in there. all I ask is for a healthy baby.
