HALF WAY THERE!!!!

It is funny how with this baby I have not been as up to date on posts, pictures, and blogging about the pregnancy. 1. because life is crazy busy right now, 2. because this pregnancy has sucked, 3. because I Feel like a whale everyday and don't really want pictures taken of me. I finally took one today though and will muster up the courage to post it, but only because it was kind and did not make me look as big as I am. However with being half way to meeting this baby, and yes baby is all I can say for now as I was strong and didn't find out the gender of the baby at the ultrasound today. YAY!! GO ME!!  I decided it was finally time to write a little bit about it, I will warn readers most of it will not be nice. The first trimester was poppy and although I was never horrificly sick I felt gross everyday. Then came the 2nd trimester and if it is not stretching pains, it is braxton hicks. Remember how with Macie I was sad that I never craved anything ,well with this little one I crave the world. I have the biggest appetite I have ever had in my life and that is scary because I am already a big eater to begin with. Nothing is truly satisfying yet I feel the need to keep eating to try and satisfy my cravings. I could eat Pizza every single day of my life and I think I will probably have more slurpees this summer then I have had in my whole entire life. One nice thing is that I started feeling baby kick around 16 weeks, and feel it kick everyday now. Also I am so glad Vemma came into my life right now because it is making life go by so fast that I don't think about being pregnant as much as I did with Macie which is making this pregnancy fly by even with it being a lot worse then it was with Macie. I tell Mark that this little munchkin better be a good sleeper because it is already -1 in best baby category. :) Well there she be and unless things start looking up with this pregnancy you probably wont see another post about it for another 10 weeks, or maybe when I am posting pics of the new little one. I will say I am super excited to have not found out and can't wait for the surprise of pushing out the baby and finding out what we are having.
