Here's the baby!!!


















So here is our baby!!!!! (If you click on the second picture, you can see the little nose!) The quality might not be too good, but how exciting! We are 10 weeks along and everything looks good they say! We'll be able to find out what the gender is in about 8 more weeks...

We were able to see and hear the baby's heart beating, and we saw the little thing moving around everywhere! It was so funny! She/he was just wiggling everywhere!

What a relief! I'm just so thankful that everything went so well. What a joy and and honor! A huge blessing! I can't wait!

(PS-They changed my due date to November 25th, so the picture below is updated.)

More Baby Clothes

My mom and sister visited T and I this weekend! We had a great time shopping for the baby. Even though we have no idea what the gender is yet, we ended up buying a few little items. Mainly pink stuff...50/50 chance right? (I'm keeping the receipts.) Baby GAP is so cute!!!

We also bought a baby book, a pregnancy journal, and an organizational book for "preparing for the baby." I'm a bit of an organizer in case some of you didn't know. It's been pretty helpful. Many, many details about stuff I didn't even know to think about! I'm pumped to get started!

Food, Food, Food

Okay, I just want to let everyone know how much stinkin' food I ate yesterday.

2 packs of peanut butter and cheese crackers
grapes
peanut butter and jelly sandwich
6" sub from subway
A lot of BUGLES
2 trays of crawfish at an All You Can Eat crawfish night
1 slice of cake with ice cream

I feel like that's a lot. I'm just so hungry all the time. I guess that would contribute to my "Baby Snug." Eating, sleeping and random pains are the only issues I have right now. No morning sickness or anything, so that's good.

Sorry some of these posts are a bit pointless. They'll get more exciting once I go to the doctor I'm sure.

Baby Snug

Well, I don't know if this is normal at 7 weeks, but my pants are definitely fitting a little differently. Oh, I guess one would say they are a wee bit snug! This is sometimes disheartening because I have no real baby evidence. I need a sign that says, "I'm pregnant. I promise! I'm really not gaining an abnormal amount of weight in an abnormally short period of time!" But, I guess if someone were to be documenting my every move, they would be able to testify that my food intake has increased significantly; thereby justifying the snug. I'm just hungry all the stinkin' time! And when I'm not hungry, I'm tired. Eat. Sleep. Eat. Sleep...not a good combination for a fit pregnant body. Oh well, I guess I have 9 months to get "fit."

But, to continue on the topic of my snug clothes...Tonight I must grace the mall with my presence...to look for a suit! Yes, a suit. Now, suits are not cheap; and it puts me in great distress to even think about spening money on a suit for a single occasion (for work) and only be able to wear it once. Now, hopefully my post-baby body will return to my pre-baby body size, but who really knows!? Anyway. I own two suits currently, both of which are too big - noticeably; so I'm basically stuck in the middle of this suit dilemma.

I just thought I'd share that with y'all on the first day of week 7 for the Lusk baby. Love y'all!
