11 weeks!

Only 29 weeks to go! :)

I'm getting closer and closer the end of the first trimester.  I can't wait until we hear the baby's heartbeat!

On the weekend, I got out all my maternity clothes and tried everything on.  Most things fit, which is good.  Everything except for 3 pairs of pants fit, so I'm happy with that.  I realized that this time, I will need more summer stuff (I didn't have any summer stuff last time really) and a couple more pairs of pants.  And a maternity bathing suit.  I was able to get away without one last time since I wasn't big until the fall and winter, but this time, I swim at the Y and intend to do so all through my pregnancy.  Not to mention, I will be big this summer too, so I will need a bathing suit to swim in at the cottage and my parents pool.  So, I am planning a maternity clothes shopping day in June.

I have been feeling a little better this past week.  The queasiness still comes and goes, but I have slightly more energy and the queasiness has been less severe.  So, I think I am starting to feel back to my old self again.  I still go to bed quite early, but I am able to function at work again, so that's good.  There were a few weeks where I felt like I wanted to crawl under my desk and take a nap every afternoon.

Julie is still asking every day "Is the baby out yet?"  Too cute!  I am really surprised that she hasn't spilled the beans to anyone at church or small groups or anything.  Only a couple more weeks to hang onto the secret and then we can start spreading the good news :)
