First Post! - 11 weeks!

Welcome to the Bean Blog!

My friend Maddie has a blog on her pregnancy progress and I think it is a such a neat idea that I am copying her!

The basics so far:

We found out we were pregnant Nov. 25th - just in time for the Holidays! We had our first doctor's appointment Dec. 29th. Everything checked out just fine: the heartrate was 164 bpm and the little bean was super active. (S)he was waving to us and bouncing around. Definitely Lance's child - HAHA!

I have been feeling pretty good - assuming I get enough sleep. And there is never enough sleep. ;)

Week: 11

Weird Preggo Stuff: I am tired all the time, but can't sleep. Go figure! Also, I can't open the refrigerator without holding my breath. The smell makes me gag. And we cleaned it out!

Mind Blowing Thought of the Week: We got our first baby purchase in the mail today: a Kelty Wallaby baby carrier. I was trying it on and the thought hit me that soon I will actually be putting a baby in there!

What I miss: Champagne on New Year's Eve. Not being the assumed designated driver.

What is exciting: I know I will regret saying this, but wearing maternity clothes! Finally I can let the tummy hang out!

Upcoming Events: Visiting Colorado for the weekend, cleaning out the room for the nursery.
