Do you think I'm pregnant?

I just sent Kurt to the store for Canada Dry Ginger Ale, Yoo-Hoo, and pickles. I'm not sure why, but I want them all right now. :) The only thing I craved when I was pregnant with Ava was gummy lifesavers. I had to have them all the time. I would leave work to go get another package. This time I've been craving pickles like crazy. I could eat them all day. The other day I ate a pickle with my peppermint hot chocolate. Yum! Tonight I had a pickle and then immediately ate a klondike bar. I think we're going to have to make a trip to Sam's to get one of those huge concession stand size jars of pickles. :) I know that has to be so healthy for the baby. it's amazing I haven't gained any weight yet. I have my next appointment the week after Christmas. I don't think that's fair. I'm sure I'll have put on a few pounds. Oh well...

I got to see the baby again today. He/she was so cute! It's amazing how much they change at this stage. We could see little arms and legs already and the baby was moving around like crazy. The baby kept rubbing it's face. So adorable! The heart rate was good and the baby was measuring right on track again. It was so nice to get some more reassurance before I can feel the baby move.

I keep telling myself I need to post more, but I've been sooooo tired. It's all I can do to take care of Ava all day. The good thing is that I haven't been nearly as sick as I was with Ava. I still have my moments, but I'm not throwing up all the time. I just can't wait to get my energy back. I absolutely love the second trimester on.

I'm sure you'll be hearing from us a little more since we'll have Christmas pictures to post. I need to post some pictures we had taken recently too. Maybe I'll get around to that tomorrow...

Great post! I am so excited for you and praising God that everything seems healthy and right on track. I laughed about the pickles because I ate tons of those my first trimester too! It's funny how now I want eggnog instead and pickles just don't sound that great. At least you're not eating them WITH your ice cream... before or after a Klondike bar doesn't count. ;-)
Love you!

And by the way... remember pickles are vegetables! They're just salty cucumbers you know. How bad can they be? :-)

That is hilarious! I craved sherbert and swiss cheese =) Can you email me your phone number? I'd LOVE to talk about everything that's going on...

Glad you and baby are doing well! You've been in my prayers!

I craved Panda Express with Aubrey! They saw my big belly and would load me up with Orange Chicken!
