11 weeks


12/10/08 I have finally gained weight!!! One whole pound in 11 weeks! I have been eating every 1-2 hours to keep the nausea away. Still craving citrus and now peanut M&Ms. Last night I talked to your Great Granny Carter and she is very excited for your arrival. She has already planned to come up for a few weeks and help me after you are born. She has been looking at baby supplies and can’t wait to start sewing you sun dresses if you are a girl. Your dad is now rubbing my belly and reminding me that I am not getting chubby, just growing a baby. He is a wonderful man and I can’t wait for you to meet him :)

12/17/08 12 weeks down, 193 days to go! This week is a crazy one getting ready for Christmas. We have been running around to Christmas parties and programs. Jenn Dampf came to work yesterday to hear her baby’s heartbeat on the Doppler for the first time. It was so exciting to be with her to hear it with her! Of course, I had to check on you again while we were there and yours was pumping strong at 164bpm. It is so reassuring to hear that sound. Jada is getting really excited about your arrival and is asking lots of questions. We had her this week and she came right up to me and said, “ is that baby still in there? When is he coming out? What is he eating? How did a bottle get in there?” She also decided that if you are a boy you should be named Lance Jr. and Misty or Jada if you are a girl. She is going to be a wonderful big cousin. Off to eat more oranges!
