17 Weeks


Good Morning!  I will say that because we took this picture at 7am!  Clearly, I am not fully awake.  :-)

This was a good week!  Very busy too.  Thursday night we went to see Lady Antebellum, Darius Rucker and Thompson Square at the Arena.  They were so good!  Then Adam's parents came in on Friday and we went to TPC on Saturday.  My very good friend from college, Kasey, was also here for TPC, so it was a good day!  Sunday was Mother's Day and Judi made me the most beautiful card.  Yes, I started crying!  :-)

Here is a cute picture of Adam and I from the concert:


WELL, I can officially say I have felt the baby!!!!!!!!!  WOOHOO!  I'm pretty sure I have felt the "quickening" for weeks now, but thought it was gas.  Now, I can actually feel bumps or kicks or whatever they are.  They are so obvious that Adam has felt it twice too!!!  Can't wait to tell Dr. Sievert next week!

We also bought a glider and ottoman for the baby room.  It was such a good deal, we couldn't pass it up.  So, that is our first official purchase!  :-)


Mood: Good mood this week

Energy: Was tired after the concert, but other than that, have had good energy this week.

Cravings: Nothing unusual!

Nausea: No nausea, still eating lots as you can see by the next category!  :-)

Weight Gain: 7 (total) pounds

BW1 this week (per BabyCenter):
Your baby's skeleton is changing from soft cartilage to bone, and the umbilical cord — her lifeline to the placenta — is growing stronger and thicker. Your baby weighs 5 ounces now (about as much as a turnip), and she's around 5 inches long from head to bottom. She can move her joints, and her sweat glands are starting to develop.
