Today marks my 13th week of pregnancy and I am hoping that I gradually start to feel better! I have signed up for weekly emails of the baby's progress and they told me that the baby is now the size of a medium shrimp. Last week the baby was the size of a lime and I'm not quite sure how a shrimp is bigger than a lime, but I won't ask questions! It's really exciting to see those emails come each week and watch the baby growing.
Not too much has been going on with us lately. Bob and I are super anxious to find out the baby's sex and it feels like the 20 week appt. cannot get here soon enough. I swear that I am having a boy and I think that if its actually a girl I may fall off the ultrasound table in utter shock. We are so excited and just ready to start planning things, besides the fact that we are both so bad at keeping secrets. You will all know what we are having the minute we find out. Who knows, maybe we will keep the name a secret until the little one arrives.
I have been having some major food adversions lately which is really strange for me. Typically I am not really a picky eater and tend to eat or order the same things all the time. Tonight, I ended up having tatortots with ketchup and let my chicken just sit on my plate. It's like I have to force any sort of protein down and all I want are carbs, salts and veggies. I was super tempted to call in an order of aspargus sushi at 8:45 PM, because it sounded sooooo good. Thank goodness it was close to their closing time so I kept my insane cravings a bay for at least another day.
Who do you think baby Smitka will look like? This thought crosses my mind a lot lately. With Bob and I both having light colored hair and blue/green eyes, I always tease him and tell him that if our child comes out with brown hair brown eyes we might have a problem!! My Dad keeps telling me that the baby will have red hair and gigantic feet like Bob (he wears a size 15!!)....oh boy for my sake lets hope not!
