Hello 10 weeks!

Week 10 has greeted me with some serious fatigue and if you ask Devin, he would probably also mention moodiness. Haha.  I am still feeling great overall with no major morning sickness and for that I a truly thankful.  I am still having a hard time deciding what I want to eat and most of what I do choose, I am less than thrilled by.  I am looking forward to the day that I actually crave something!  I am working on staying hydrated and stress free, both of which are challenges for me :) but I am making some serious strides.

Week 10 also includes my 30th birthday!!  I am looking forward to celebrating with friends this Thursday and then Devin and I will be leaving on a jet plane for a long weekend in New Orleans!  We are excited to go somewhere that we have never been and to be on a "just the two of us" adventure.  It is a birthday celebration and "babymoon" of sorts and I am soo looking forward to relaxing and exploring in a new city.

Once we return from NOLA, life will include a lot of studying for my BCBA exam (that is in February) and Christmas shopping! Eek!

Thanks for checking in on the Vaughantraps!  I will leave you with a belly pic from week 9!  The "I can't suck it in anymore" pooch is definitely making an appearance!

June 3rd 2014

After our first ultra sound (as soo perfectly documented by Daddy Dev in the movie trailer in the previous post), we were told that our official due date is June 3rd 2014.  The heart rate was 160bpm and everything checked out well, measuring at about 7 weeks along.

As I move into this 8th week, I am constantly reminding myself that I'm pregnant!  It is hard to believe it is us this time!  I have always been the babysitter, nanny, teacher, cousin, or aunt....but now I am the Momma!  We are soo thankful and excited.

Soo far I have felt great.  No major morning sickness or difficulties.  I find myself tired (what's new?) and I try to keep eating small snacks throughout the day as I learned early on that I feel a little icky when I haven't eaten (headache and woozy).  Other than that, doing really well and hoping the good health continues.

That's the latest and greatest!  Thanks for joining us on this new adventure!!  Please keep in touch and check back often, I miss and love you all!

PS:I bought this sweet lil cuddly lizard for baby, so we can always remember that first time we saw our lil lizard on the ultrasound screen :)
