Super Bowl XLIII here we come!

Well, we had our monthly visit to the doctor yesterday. Everything is growing just as it should...all my tests were good, and the baby's heartbeat is right on track. Again, the doctor said the baby was quite active, we even heard a little kick. She wasn't too concerned about my weight, so hopefully I'll be feeling better soon and start packing on the pounds! (But not too many of course.)

Now for the exciting news...we should FINALLY find out if we're having a little prince or princess on February 16th!!! I can't wait, being the control-freak I am, it's driving me nuts not to know what colors to start picking out, what names to consider, and who I need to start asking for hand-me-downs, hahaha!

On another note, as most of you know by now we finally pulled everything together and sent Daddy to Pittsburgh to see Jared play...little did we know what an exciting and important game he would get to see. He flew up there on his birthday, January 17th, and got to go to the AFC Championship game to see the Pittsburgh Steelers beat the Baltimore Ravens and advance to the SUPER BOWL!!! Yea Jared, Go Steelers!!!

2nd Trimester...

Well, as of today I'm 14 weeks along and officially into the 2nd trimester. I'm still feeling sick, but I think things are starting to get better. I had a sudden burst of energy yesterday and got A LOT of house cleaning done...Lord knows that was WAY overdue. Since the last post we had Christmas & New Years. Most of which was somewhat of a blur between all of the traveling, weddings, funerals, graduations, and sickness.

For now I am staying busy with work and other little projects here and there. It has been nice to get a few things crossed off my never-ending "to do" list.

On Monday our good friends, Luke & Keri Jo, welcomed their 2nd little bundle of joy to the world...Trip Henson Thorkildsen! Again she had a super quick labor and delivery, and they were all home in about 24 hours. We can only pray for things to go as smoothly for Baby Jackson!

Congratulations Luke, Keri Jo, & Joss!
