8 wks

Well my last baby appointment marked the 8th week of pregnancy.. so exciting.. 1 month left til 2nd trimester bliss.. I really can't complain too much.. I am not sick at all.. in fact.. food is amazing.. hamburgers especially which is funny cause with Drew I was anti meat all together.. with this one.. I crave meat.. interesting! Its so neat how they are all different in the belly and then turn into their own little people.. so awesome and a true blessing!!!!

On the down side I am extremely.. and I mean extremely exhausted.. its really bad how incredibly tired I am!!!! Thankfully the boys have been super tolerant with their sleepy Mama.. and Mark has been patient as well.. to get off the sofa to do anything is a huge chore for me.. so I slowly.. and I mean slowly do what I can around the house when I can.. I have been keeping up with my walking as best as I can too.. I am hoping once the exhaustion wears off.. I will be able to workout more without the rest of my day being totally shot!

Garrett still really wants a baby sister.. Drew still really wants a baby brother.. Mark and I are obviously still hoping for the girl.. the doctor said that the next appointment he will start trying to find gender.. which is really really exciting!!! My Mom jokes that she is going to hide all the baby stuff.. in her house if we have another boy.. cause she doesn't believe we will be done.. which makes me laugh!!!!

This next few weeks will be exciting.. Mark and I are off to Vegas for his Baker 2 Vegas run.. my sis is keeping the kiddos for us.. so we can have a babymoon.. hee hee.. and then we are off to Missouri to see our newest Lensing addition.. baby Luke which the boys are really looking forward to! So I figured I would share a little prego update before I am done with my first trimester!

There is the heartbeat.. yay.. technology is so amazing!!!!

Here is a tadpole looking picture.. hopefully next time the peanut will look more like a little itty bitty human.. so crazy how great you can see on these ultrasounds!!!
