Lucky Number 13?

First off, I just wanted to thank everyone that had the sweetest things to say upon finding out our exciting news! It really meant a lot to Travis and I that everyone was so sweet and congratulating! XoXoX

Ok, an update. I think I spoke too soon in my last post when I said that I felt that the morning sickness was subsiding... because it hasn't. Sometimes I am lucky enough to only have the nausea in the evenings, but "fun" days like today, I experience it all day long. I've decided that I will be happy for the good days and patient with the not-so-good days.

On Wednesday, my Mom, Trav and I will be going back to see Dr. Schmidt for some routine testing and an ultrasound. We are bringing Mom along in hopes that she might be able to sneak a peek at the ultrasound (since she was an ultrasound tech in a previous life) and shed some light on the sex of our baby. Though it's a long shot, we are anxious to find out what we are having! I haven't done much shopping for the baby (which is weird considering I've wanted babies since I was one!), and I am excited to pick out either pink or blue things! :) So we shall see if we get lucky in Week 13!

My fall wishes have finally been granted! Today we had our first cool front come through! I think that fall is my new favorite season. I think it's a mixture of the cool, crisp air, the beautiful fall leaf colors, and the family holidays... I think the pregnancy is making me soft! Haha. I've done some decorating around the house in preparation for the fall holidays (will post pics later) and I am already planning fun things we can turn into family traditions with our growing family. There is one special tradition that will always remain... being in the company of our dearest family and friends!
