What's New?

Well, in case you haven't heard, we've got a bit of news in our little family. We are going to be adding a cute little baby girl to our collection on or about February 7th, 2014. We're pretty darn excited. This will be the first granddaughter for both my parents and Ethan's, as well as the first great-granddaughter for Ethan's Mower grandparents. We'd be excited even if she wasn't the first, that just makes it a little more fun.
So far baby and I seem to be doing great. I had some minor morning sickness through most of the first trimester, but it wasn't as bad as what I had with Erik so I can't really complain. Though the nausea seems to be gone, it left behind an aversion to nearly every food I like to eat. Nothing smells good, or tastes good, so eating (and cooking, which I normally love) has not been on the top of my priority list, though I do make sure I get enough to keep me going.
Other than that, I'm feeling great and as far as the Dr. can tell so is baby. The last ultrasound showed a strong healthy heart, properly formed and proportioned limbs, and she is right on the small end of average as far as size (small is FINE with me!!!).
Now, before you get your panties in a bundle that I'm 22 weeks pregnant and this is the first you've heard about it, just know that you're not the only one who was kept in the dark. Almost nobody (and this includes the grandmothers to be) knew until this weekend. We decided a while ago that as long as everything was going well we were going to wait to tell anyone until after we knew the gender to tell people. The ultrasound was last Friday, so the grandma's found out over the next two days and then we made it known to the public.
We're so excited and can't wait to meet our little sweetie in a few more months!
