One down, two to go!

Now that I am 14 weeks, I am through the first trimester and onto the second!  Here are a few shots and notes from my first few weeks.  I was not very "disciplined" about taking the pictures, so I only have a few.  I promise to be better in the 2nd trimester:


5 Weeks - Please excuse the crazy hair!

5 Week Tummy Shot

6 Weeks

8 Weeks

I have not been "sick" at all for most of my first trimester.  The main symptoms that I have experienced have been fatigue, complete & total exhaustion, a few upset stomachs and my burping has multiplied...and did I mention that I am ALWAYS tired?!?!  That is the only complaint that I have from these first few weeks.  I have been going to bed earlier, taking naps on the weekends and just skipping tasks/activities that I usually do in order to rest more.  It has been an adjustment for me, but it has taught me one way to put someone else before myself.  I rest so that the baby can grow!  Supposedly it goes away during the second trimester, so I am looking forward to that for sure.  It has been a wonderful experience so far and one that I am very thankful for.  Tyler has been a trooper and has pitched in to help me with so much around the house without complaining one bit.  I am so thankful for a wonderful husband.  I know he is going to be such a great daddy!

Only 26 more weeks to go until Baby J is in our arms!!!
