Today I can say that I heard two of my most favorite things in the world...Addy saying, "Love you most, mommy...muah!" and my little Snowflake's heartbeat.

So when I tell Addy that I have a baby in my tummy, she looks at me so adoringly and says, "I have a baby in my tummy too, mommy. See." And she shows me her little tummy. :)

Well, well well snowflake. You really want people to know you are growing and growing! Is this a 2nd baby thing or what?! With Addy I didn't 'show' until about 13 weeks...now at week 10 you are just screaming, "I'm here!". I can say that the past 2 days or so I'm feeling more 'normal'. Little Snowflake, you sure had me very ravenous the past 3 weeks. Luckily, I think you've cut me a break...and I thank you! I didn't think I could keep up! We have our first doctor appointment this Wednesday, again, we are just right around 10 weeks. I sure feel and look like I am 13 or 14 weeks though.

Snowflake, oh snowflake...I had a dream about you this weekend. I had a dream that I saw you at 1 year old. I won't disclose this dream in too much detail because it could mean nothing, but when I had a similar dream during my pregnancy with Addy, I was right on. We were on vacation and I very distinctly saw Addy playing with her younger sibling. I even had a name for her sibling in my dream! Again, this dream could mean something, or nothing...or it could just mean that I need a vacation? :)

Today, I'm hungry. Nothing new there but keeping my hunger from those around me at work is taking some talent.

Snowflake...I love that you love these...

 

...because so do I.

I've been keeping up with my running. I have slowed my running down to about a 9:30 pace, down from my 8:15 pace I was doing but snowflake and I will just take it easy.

So little snowflake and I headed out to California for a week long group meeting last week. We had a good flight out but upon arriving in CA, I realized I was downright hungry. Okay, I've been up since 4, flown to LA and now am on my way to my meeting...no wonder I'm hungry. But suffice it to say that I very quickly noticed a hunger trend setting in this week. What?! Snowflake, you are only 7 weeks along...why are you so hungry? I can't keep up(and I'm not liking it since I'm not used to actually feeling hungry)! Besides, no one out here knows about you just yet.

Before I left, I asked Addy if she wanted a baby brother or a baby sister...her reply? "Baby sister!". Wow. Now, how do I control that? Oh wait, that's right, I can't. ;)

We are only 6 weeks along and this little snowflake is tiring me already.  I have a group meeting out in CA all next week and MUST stay awake through it every day!  This is going to be trying but we'll see how I do this.  Addy told me, "It will be okay, mommy."  So, I trust her.

No morning sickness to report, yet.  Just tiredness. 

I went for a good run today at the gym...it was nice and believe it or not, makes me feel more energized! 

Again, only 6 weeks along but believe it or not, I can feel this little baby growing already.  Maybe after having Addy I'm more familiar with pregnancy, but I sure can tell.  How do people not know they are pregnant?  I sure feel it!  We have our first Dr appointment  on June 6.  We will be almost 10 weeks along by then.

Here's a picture of my dear Addy and her sibling (I'm about 5 weeks here).

May 2, 2010 News!

This weekend has been quite interesting.  With a bout of food poisoning that hit both Sean and I, Addy got to take care of her mommy and daddy as she was the only one not hit!  She did a very good job of letting us sleep and tip toeing down the hall to check on whoever was taking a nap.  She brought us water and even put on movies for us.  She was an angel for us. 

We were so happy to see how well she took care of us that it made us very happy to learn that our dear Addy will become a big sister in early January 2011! 

We asked Addy if she would like a baby in the house first.  She said, "okay". :)  Then we asked again and told her she could be a big sister...one who could teach the baby how to eat, how to get dressed and how to play with our doggies.  Addy responded with, "can the baby sleep in my room with me?"  She was very happy but we haven't pushed it more than that.
