Baby Update

It's been a crazy few weeks and I have gotten blog lazy! Lets start with the baby.......

I went in for my appointment on December 22nd to try to hear the baby's heartbeat. However, there was no heartbeat so we had to go in on the 23rd for an ultrasound (darn it!) It turns out I'm not as far along as I thought. We thought I was due July 24th, 2009 and now I'm not due until August 2nd, 2009. I know 10 days doesn't seem like much, but it makes it seem like I've been pregnant FOREVER! If the ultrasound is right then I found out I was pregnant when I was only like a week pregnant. How does that work? Anyway, we got the cutest picture of our little one! It looks like a little teddy bear with it's big body and little tiny arms and legs. Since we had the ultrasound on the 23rd, we called it our little gingerbread man. If I knew how to use my fabulous scanner, I'd post the picture......but I don't. I usually just take a picture of a picture, but for some strange reason it never seems to turn out very good! ;) I've felt great- I haven't been sick at all. This pregnancy is so different from my other 3 pregnancies and I'm wondering why? (But I'm definitely NOT complaining!) The only way I can even tell I'm pregnant is ..... I'm totally broken out, I'm always STARVING, and you can actually see my thighs getting bigger. The number on the scale hasn't moved yet (THANK HEAVENS!) but I've lost every ounce of muscle I worked so hard for. Oh well. I guess that's what happens when you're growing a human ;)

My goal is to get pictures uploaded from Christmas and Jaxon's birthday party within the next few days. We'll see how it goes.......
