Dear Baby: 13 Weeks

(Week late with no picture... oops.)

Dear Baby,

Today is an exciting day because it means we are out of the first trimester!  I am so thankful that we made it to this milestone and happy that your are growing like a weed.  I'm definitely starting to feel the "goodness" of second trimester: less nausea, less food aversions, I'm just still waiting on that extra energy!  In fact, I'd be very appreciative if that energy was delivered now soon since I started teaching Pre-K this week.  Either way, all these little symptoms are WELL worth it for you, my dear.

I decided to do something a little different this week and I am going to fill out a survey I've seen floating around.  We'll see if I get to it every week.

How far along? 13 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: about 3 LBS
Maternity clothes? I've started wearing maternity pants every day but that's about it.  I'm sticking to my baggy shirts and dresses for now.
