I went to my last doctor's appointment and learned that I'm further along than I thought -- I'm 14 weeks! That puts me due on May 22, and we find out the gender (in theory) on Dec. 17 ... just before Christmas! So fun. We think little Aaron will be a great big bro. We're so excited for another addition to the family.
So far I'm feeling great ... just tired. The fatigue has waned a little now that I'm over the hump of the first trimester. I feel my energy returning, little by little. But that still doesn't mean I have any desire to stay up past 10 o'clock! :) It just feels so good to sleep ...
Also, my appetite is returning. Seriously, the only thing that tasted good the first trimester was soft-serve ice cream. Could it be anymore cliche?? :) (It was that way when I was pregnant with Aaron too. That would explain the 40-pound weight gain!! I'm determined to gain significantly less this time.) That's a trademark of my pregnancies -- I totally lose my appetite the first trimester, which is bad, because you have to eat! But now I'm craving other things like spaghetti and apple juice (my new addiction.) I really hope other things start sounding good too. The first ultrasound is tomorrow! We'll keep you posted. :)
Much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving: the Gospel, family, friends, a warm home, a baby on the way, and let's not forget soft-serve ice cream (I don't care how cold it is outside!) ;)

Congratulations and I think soft serve ice cream is yummy anytime pregnant or not. Although Jon would think I'm nuts. Have a great Thanksgiving.
You sly thing...holding out until NOW! I'm so excited for you to have another little one. I hope it is a little girl with lots of blonde curls!

I've been wondering how you're doing. So glad to hear all is well. I am so thrilled for the new little one. You are such a great mother, what blessed children you have. I am thankful for friends like you. Happy Thanksgiving!
Jenny! I am so excited for you! Trent and I are also expecting a baby...I am 13 weeks...so we are due the beginning of June. We are hoping that the baby comes just a bit early because I have my last 3 master's classes in June...so things would be just a bit better if the baby came tiny bit early...but we know it will all work out. I am SO excited for you!!
I am so excited for your family. Aaron will be such a good big brother. I will think pink thoughts for you :o)
