So after the stomach flu for 36+ hours - I'm happy to report that I'm alive and well. So is baby. We had a baby appointment this afternoon & heard the heartbeat again. My doctor said all is well for baby. As for me - I'll be fine too. The good news is I haven't gained any weight yet in my pregnancy & as you'll see in a picture below - I am showing...so I guess baby is using up some of my 'extra'. :)
I was blessed to have my sister & the girls come down yesterday afternoon to take care of me. Laura arrived & started helping with laundry, sorting my clothes that don't fit & making room for ones that do (thank you Beth!! I LOVE them!!), changing sheets, disinfecting the house, cleaning the litter box, going grocery shopping - etc. THANK YOU LAURA!!!
And I was very happy today that she was able to accompany me to my baby doctor appointment - I think she enjoyed that opportunity too. So fun. All is well.
Around 5:00 I got a call from my SIL that they were coming through town & were stopping for dinner - we went to meet them & for the first time ever, I got to have all of my nieces & nephews in one location! That was so fun for me. We had a great dinner (thank you Jeff for switching dinners with me-fickle pregnant lady) & then snapped a few photos before we left.
All in all my week is shaping up quiet nicely - I'm very thankful. And very blessed.
Eli, Melia, Auntie, Silas, Nellie
Me at 13 1/2 weeks (no - it didn't use to stick out that far - I promise)... :)

Look at that cute little growing belly!! While I am glad that the pregnancy and newborn stage is done with in my life, I do have to say it is such a fun and exciting thing to experience! Glad you are feeling better and look at that, you've entered the "good" trimester!!
love those pics! glad your stomach flu went away. Hopefully you are done with that business for a long while!
you are so stinkin' cute! Love the baby bump! I was wondering why you weren't at small group and the post explains it all. Hope you are feeling much better!
Oh goodness, this took me back to when I was pregnant and you said to keep sending pictures because it was hard being so far away!! And now it's me ... I'm already missing you so and I can't imagine when the baby is actually here. I might have to kidnap you! ;). So happy that even if you don't feel your best, baby is good and growing :). Loves!
I love the baby belly! Can I touch it next time I see you? I used to LOVE it when people touched my belly, I loved to show it off ;)
I love how little your baby bump is! You are going to be one cute pregnant lady...I can't wait to see you grow. :)
Oh my gosh, look at you! HOW CUTE!!! Have you been able to wear any of the maternity clothes yet?
Oh yuck, I'm so sorry you had the flu, that is horrible, especially when you're pregnant. Glad you're feeling better and love the picture. I need to take more this time around. Not "showing" yet though.
