Blue or Pink???

We found out something wonderful on May 14th, 2011.  We will be parents again!!!  Both Barry and I are extremely excited and can not wait to meet this tiny creation.  One funny thing is this baby will be born in January, just like Bella, my hope is they will not share birthdays.  From what I can gather right now, my due date falls on January 21st vs. Bella’s was the 7th with actual arrival on the 11th.  Barry and I were talking after going to Lissy’s (neighbor’s girl that I am watching) birthday party how I would love for our second child to have their birthday either in Spring or Summer, since there are so many options for birthday parties outdoors, but here we go again, another Winter baby 🙂  God has a great sense of humor and we are totally on board 🙂  I am currently 14 weeks along and already noticing the difference between two pregnancies.  One of the crazy things, is I have been feeling this baby move around at around 10 weeks, when with Bella it was more like 18-19.  It’s so crazy, because I feel the movements and want to feel them, but can’t because the baby is so tiny that it’s not something I will feel or see externally for a little while.  I started off a little rocky, feeling pretty nauseous and absolutely exhausted since the time I wake up in the morning.  A few naps here and there helped tremendously.   I also have a completely different life style compared  to when I carried Bella, I used to sit most of the time and now I am on my feet pretty much all day long, active all the time.  I am happy to report that my energy is back up where I do not feel the need to rest, at least it’s doable 🙂  My belly is also much bigger than last time at this stage in pregnancy, I was this big at about 21 weeks, but I have gained 4 pounds, so everything seems to be going well.  I have not been able to go see a Dr. at this point, which has been a very difficult thing for me, as I have gone twice before week 14 while carrying Bella.   We are currently going through some insanity with health insurances, but God is Amazing and I get to see my Dr. next Friday!  We can not wait to see and hear our baby 🙂  This time around, we are planning on finding out whether it’s a boy or a girl, but who knows maybe we will chicken out once the time comes 😉  At this point, I absolutely can not wait to find out- don’t know why.  Below is the most current picture of me and the “bump”  😉
