3 months in...2nd trimester here I come!

Sweet Little One,

daddy and I got to see you again today! It's such a relief to have them turn on the tv and use their magic wand and then get to see you. I can not feel you yet so I just hope and pray everyday that you are doing well and growing and developing like you should be. Today we got to see that you are getting bigger...but you are still super super tiny. You are starting to take on the shape of a little baby though...no more gummy bear. :)

Your heart beat is nice and strong and you are measuring perfectly where you are supposed to be at this point. What a blessing! A thousand thank you's to our heavenly Father - " Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a reward from him." ~ Psalm 127:3 I'm in awe at how HUGE this experience is - -everyday I can't believe how lucky I am to have a small part in this miracle of life.

I'm looking forward to taking a small trip w/ your daddy to Florida in a couple days. It will be a "relaxcation" for me and I just really need some down time and just really soak everything in more. A slower pace for five days sounds wonderful! I plan on sitting by the pool and reading, ordering room service, having my first prenatal massage {now that I'm far enough along}, and maybe one day go to Disney World w/ daddy. So far the nausea has subsided quite a bit but I'm still feeling tired and very little energy. It may be b/c I'm still trying to keep up a pretty busy pace - work is crazier than ever, and still trying to juggle Twinkle & Blush as well as maintain a little bit of a social life. It's been tough but from what I hear the next trimester will hopefully have me feeling great w/ lots more energy.

But for now...I'm sooo going to enjoy some sunny down time w/ my little teeny tiny baby bump.

xo, mommy
