9 weeks and counting!!!!

Well, for an update, for those who care, I am about 9 weeks along. I am just starting to have any kind of belly at all. I have actually lost about 16 lbs!!! (boy if I knew getting prego would do this I would have done it long ago. JUST KIDDING!! It is just a trick for all the weight that is to come.)
I think I look bigger than what I really am in this picture. But mom got me this shirt from Motherhood for my b-day. Well we found that Motherhood shirts run a bit smaller...so I wanted to make sure and get my wear out of this shirt, because i just love it. And it is in style to, at least in Womans wear it is. I guess I am just so excited to be pregnant. I don't really want to gain alot of weight, and HOPEFULLY with good discipline and wise eating I don't plan to.
Thankfully I have not been bowing down before the "White Throne", but I have been VERY queasy pretty much all the time. But bond and determined not to throw-up!!!!!! My appetite is alot smaller. I am finding that I love mashed potatoes and sherbert. (NOT TOGATHER) I also can hardly do anything Grape flavored. It is getting better or I am getting used to it one. I hope to only have a few more weeks of this, so that is a blessing. I am just hoping my appetite will stay smaller. (probably will not happen)

Went to the doctor last week and everything seems fine. I go next month to hear the heartbeat. I am so excited.
I had to include a new picture of my little Maddie. She will be 1 month Wednesday!!! Look how chubby she is getting! I just lover her!

I love the shirt, it looks great. I was constantly sick for three straight months with both kids. I lost 30pds. with both kids those months. I hope it does get better for you.

Glad you aren't horribly sick. All 3 of mine I got comfortable on my couch - meaning that is about all I could do was just lay there for 3-5 months...if I wasn't at "the white throne!" :-) You look adorable!

I am so happy for you both, and I think the shirt looks very nice.
I hope you won't have too much more sickness. I am 15 weeks and most of the sickness is gone, but the tiredness set in, but anything is better than being sick all the time, so there is some hope for the next few weeks. Also your brother's baby is beautiful!!!
