13 Weeks

So either yesterday or tomorrow I’m 13 weeks. I think it was yesterday, so let’s just pretend I’m right.  The baby is measuring 13 weeks 2 days now so, all’s good in the hood! (<------I’ll never do that again, sorry, that was weird)

I feel great. I’ve made dinner twice this week, had a doctor’s appointment, got my teeth cleaned, worked out.  I don’t think I realized that I actually was really worn out at the end of the day.

Since we’re now in the ‘safe zone’, we’ve started sharing our news.  I won’t announce on facebook or send a mass email to my entire family, instead I decided to call my grandpa.  I said, “Grandpa we’re having a baby” and he shouted “god bless that’s wonderful news!!”. It totally made me tear up. I am so so blessed that I am able to share this with my grandparents.  This will be the 16^th great grandchild on my mom’s side of the family and I’m sure that number will continue to grow.  Grandpa I knew would share my news and within 30 minutes I had a text from my Aunt Debbie!

Ben spent last evening texting every friend in his phone book to let them know the news, it was beyond adorable.

So here I am 13 weeks and here is my questionnaire! Ha did you really think I would remember to do this every week?

 

 

How far along are you? 13 weeks 1 days . I think. Who knows, but I’m fairly certain:) did you read above?

So to sum up everything above, WE’RE SO HAPPY!! Although Ben says the baby looks a bit like an alien. Fingers crossed it looks normal when I deliver:)
