14 Weeks

I had my doctor's appointment yesterday and finally got to hear a heartbeat. It took a while to get the actual heartbeat because this one did not like being touched. Every time the doppler got near he/she kicked or hit it away and then moved. This baby is fiesty already. The heartbeat was at 139 bpm, which is great. Also it looks like everything else is progressing at the normal rate, even my weight, which is hard to believe.
As promised, here are some belly shots of me at 14 weeks. I didn't want to show off my belly but Jeremy talked me into it.

More Energy

So I promised myself I would update on the blog over the weekend. And here it is on Monday and I am updating during my lunch hour. Well, not much news to report from me. I have been doing good most days and now all the sudden I am starting to feel like my old self. I actually stayed up til 9:30 last night. What an accomplishment! I had gained 2 pounds since my last doctor's visit, but today the scale said otherwise. Those 2 lbs went away? I am just wondering if someone has tampered with the scales here at work. Yes, I am keeping a close watch on my weight. I do not like to workout and don't want to have a ton of toning to do after the baby. But trust me that I am not starving myself. (Eating 4-7 mini meals a day)

Jeremy on the other hand has been a busy little bee. During the last weekend in April he went on a fishing trip in Louisiana. It was a company paid for 4 day/3 night deep sea fishing trip. He does have pictures, which I need to get off of the camera. Also yesterday, he went with some friends of ours to Six Flags. I didn't want to go and watch him ride when I couldn't. Plus paying for someone who can't ride the rides just didn't make much sense either, so he went without me. I know he had a lot of fun and I can't wait to go with him next summer.

I will post some more pictures this week, including a new belly shot.
