Due Date: November 13, 2012

Weight Gain: 0 lbs

Symptoms: Feeling pretty good with the occasional bit of sleepiness.

Cravings: Slight craving for cheetos.....after our friends Jill and Lance's wedding this weekend in Jefferson City the only thing open for late night eating was McDonald's. Bryan and Kyle Wooster decided to get a bite to eat from there but Candi and I decided to get something from the hotel. For some reason the cheetos bag looked good and I forgot how good they tasted. :) Chips (other than tortillas and salsa) have not been in my diet for years.

Aversions: Same things as before specfically meat just not craving it at all.


Sleep: Sleeping fine with the addition of the now usual 2 bathroom visits a night.

I am loving: Nothing specific stands out this week just life in general.

I miss: This week I missed being able to partake in the drinking activites that took place with friends over Jill's wedding weekend. Of course it's all worth it and really was not that big of a deal.

I am looking forward to: This upcoming weekend with no plans. Hopefully, it will be relaxing and Bryan and I can take the dogs to the park.

Best thing about this week: This cuts into this past weekend but it was so great to spend it with friends for Jill and Lance's wedding. Being able to share the news with several of them who didn't know yet and getting to meet our friend Ashley's boyfriend, Matt. It was a great weekend all around. It was also great to just go public with the news....finally no more secret keeping. ;)

Milestones: Almost at the end of the first trimester

It's a....: Baby Emerson's gender will be revealed at the baby shower......no official date has been set but around Labor Day time frame is the plan.
