hyper fetus

this baby is so full of energy! i can feel her kick already! justin even felt it for the first time last night. i went to the ob yesterday for my check-up and we could barely hear the heartbeat through the doppler because she wouldn't be still! she's gonna come out dancing and doing cartwheels...just like her Mommy!

p.s. i can't stop shopping for her!

we're having a...

...girl!!!! we're, needless to say, so excited! more importantly, though, she's extremely healthy. she's measuring 17 weeks, 4 days and i'm only 17 weeks along. so her growth is great! now we just need a name for little miss pretty girl!

here, she has her hand up to her face and it looks like she's smiling!

oh! and i totally had to get this out of my system...

nursery theme

animals! i'm not going overboard with it, though.

so far, i've knitted these for baby's room...

cravings

with davis, it was frosted flakes and pineapple. not at the same time. i'd wake up in the middle of the night and HAVE to eat a bowl of frosted flakes before i could go back to sleep. and i'd eat so much pineapple every day that my tongue would bleed!

with this pregnancy, i find myself randomly wanting different things. and by 'wanting' i, of course, mean 'needing'. a couple days ago, i drove all the way to towne center mall just to get some pretzel bites with melted cheese. once i satisfied the craving, it was gone. i had to have french toast for dinner a few weeks ago and ate like 5 slices...craving gone. i'm really into cheese right now, though...little caeser's pepperoni pizza, atlanta bread company's asiago bagel with cream cheese, kroger deli's white american cheese...my digestive system hates me.

i'll post a lady lump photo soon!
