My first baby dream....

and I was not the best mommy! I had a little baby boy at the hospital, but left him to go to a party only a few hours after he was born. The party was great, lots of random people from my life were there. No one thought it was weird that I was out right after giving birth. The next morning I went back to the hospital to pick up our new little boy, but the nurses wouldn't let me take him home. They said that he needed to see the doctor, and that once he did that they would drop him off at our house. I was fine with this baby delivery service, but wanted one of them to show me how to wrap him up and breastfeed. Apparently I hadn't done this before going out to party! Pretty interesting first dream about the baby. I think I might be watching too much 16 and Pregnant!!!

So far this first trimester has been okay. I am tired a lot (I enjoyed a 6:45 bed time on Tuesday), and need to make sure that I eat often. I have a HUGE sweet tooth, and had Mike go get me some cinnamon rolls last night because I have been thinking about them for weeks. Hopefully summer weather will help me stay some what in shape so I don't gain 50lbs! Our next appointment is June 7th when we will be 12 weeks and 2 days along. I am really looking forward to hearing the heartbeat on the Doppler and know that everything is good with our bean :-)

Garden

Mike and I planted our 2nd garden over the weekend. This year we will be growing 4 kinds of tomatoes, green and yellow cucumbers, an herb garden, peppers, broccoli, carrots, radishes, lettuce, and an artichoke plant for looks. I am hoping that pregnancy agrees with tomatoes. Last year I think we ate at least 1 a day! Hopefully the chickens will start laying eggs soon so we can really eat like farmers.

Baby's First Photo


Mike and I went to our first appointment yesterday, and after waiting for an hour and a half we got to see the little bean! It's heart was beating away and our doctor was great. Poor Mikey had to sit through a "girl" visit, but I think it's good prep for the real deal.
