May 18, 2014 - 14 weeks



The numbers seem to be creeping up so fast!  14 weeks!  I'm writing this a tad late since I was in CA on the actual day.  We had so much fun.  And it again makes me realize just how much I miss being closer to my BFF.  It's so crazy how you can meet someone on the first day of kindergarten 26ish years ago.  How 2 (1/2) babies later and an entire continent between us and yet she's still my go to.  She's my best friend.  And when we see each other, it's like I just saw her yesterday.  Can you tell I miss her already?  And her sweet baby, Harper.  Adorable!  I'm so glad that I'm 14 weeks pregnant because I have major baby fever after leaving.

Zoe was hilarious and actually not so interested in FaceTiming with me while I was gone.  Now I know how her grandparents feel!  The only time she was still was when she was eating her snack or when she was taking a bath :)  Getting a running hug and kiss when I got home made up for it. It's amazing how much she learned while I was gone.  She can now form short sentences or at least put two words together (that I understand - she talks in long gibberish sentences but I have no idea what any of it means), she has new words.  I was gone for four days! 

I'm feeling much better and don't need to eat nearly as much/often.  I do still gag while brushing my teeth.

All of my main worries now just deal with something happening to my babies AFTER they are born.  Weird I know.  It just seems like I've read a lot of blogs lately or heard a lot of stories where something tragic happens or the baby is born with a horrible, incurable disease.  I know what will be will be, and I can't keep them in a bubble.  But as a mom, it's so hard to know that you can't protect them from everything.  But enough of the sad....

I'm thinking that this week will be the week to bust out the maternity pants.  The bella band is just getting so tight and uncomfortable.

My parents are coming out next weekend to help with yard work and planting.  The weather is finally turning around and it's supposed to be gorgeous.  I can't wait to be outside all weekend (I'm sure Zoe will enjoy it equally as much).
