8 week progress

I'm 8 weeks pregnant today! this is the 3rd farthest I've been. The baby is doing great, I can tell because I'm so sick. So very, very sick.
I passed my class and Joel is finishing his school this week. (Woohoo!)
Sable is moving and cruising around the house like she owns the place. She's constantly at the piano playing and dancing to her own music. Joel loves watching her. We both applaud and cheer her on. Piano lessons are in her future.

Allen "Lloyd" Veer 1927-2011

We lost Great Uncle Lloyd yesterday. Lloyd was my grandma Rene's oldest brother. He was a great guy with lots of family history. He is already missed.

Summer break!

Sable is out of Preschool for her 3 week summer break. My finals are next week and Joel's is the week after that so we will all share one week of summer vacation before fall schedule starts. I have two classes left to get my AA but I'll finish after the baby comes sometime. I'm not in a hurry.

Sable is starting to say her name! she says "ZEE-bowl." It's super cute!

6 weeks, 1 day pregnant

Here's the baby!

We are officially due on April 4th 2012, the same week as Sable's 3rd birthday.

We saw the heart beating! rate: 123 (I think it's a boy)

Everything looks perfect!

That old feeling

Morning sickness has struck and it lasts all day. anything that smells makes me gag, my whole body is sore and food makes my tummy flutter. It's kinda bad... any tips on managing?

Cravings: Apple sauce, Apple juice, soda crackers, sleep & attention from Joel

Babycenter says...

"Your baby goes through a growth spurt this week, starting out as small as a lentil and ending up as big as a chickpea."

Grandma Dawn and the Ponytail girl

If you're worried...

I'm still doing great. The Doctor was hoping that my HCG (pregnancy hormone) levels would be over 3000 today and they were WAY over 4000.

Baby update

I'm doing blood tests this week to track my progress. Everything is still great and the Doctors are happy and right on top of me. First ultrasound will be Thursday, August 11th. We're still super excited!

Preschool first

Today Sable was flipping through a book and stopped on a page with a picture of fish. Without any prompting said fish in sign language. Her Speech Therapist was very impressed.

Gencon Widow

Joel left today for Gencon and Papa John has taken his place as "stay-at-home-Papa" so I can go to work and school all week. Grandma Dawn is taking the weekend shift. Hooray for family!
I'm so tired...
