Wow. Almost to the halfway point already. I had the anatomy scan of our little sapling yesterday. The doctor said everything looks perfect.
It is odd to be having such an easy pregnancy after all the pain and suffering involved in the IVF process I went through a few years ago.
That time has impacted my thoughts on this pregnancy. I don't take (well I try not to) for granted the ease involved in this pregnancy. The beginning was filled with thoughts of everything that could go wrong. That has tapered off for the most part, especially after seeing the cute sapling yesterday.
Thursday is when I (we) finally get to open the sex reveal envelope. With my significant other being in training, he wasn't able to attend. I thought it was a moment we should share, and I do hope he gets to go to some of my future appointments.
Life is crazy and hectic. I don't know how others keep up with a full time job, pregnancy, home, and another child (or children). I'm beat trying to keep everything floating. It stresses me out, but I know it is only for awhile longer.
And if the above wasn't enough, my daughter's hormone levels are EVERYWHERE. She is yelling at me one moment and apologizing for yelling two minutes later. It is a miracle my mom didn't kill us all while we were in this phase. sigh.

17 weeks
Wow, this is moving quickly and I'm realizing I'm a horrible blogger/recorder of my life.
In general, things are going well. My doctor keeps telling me I'm perfect (boost to the ol' ego). I'm tired and emotional. TJ thinks my crazy emotions and other pregnancy induced moments of crazy are "cute". I think he needs to stop laughing at me. LOL
I feel like I'm huge, but other people are saying you can barely tell I'm pregnant.
We get to find out the sex of the baby the week before Thanksgiving. We are excited. I'm hoping for a boy (as is TJ and everyone else), but TJ thinks it is going to be a girl.
Otherwise, Kaitlin is excited about being a big sister.
I bought the first thing for baby (a book called "Kiss Kiss" which was purchased purely for the baby hippo). We also received the first gift for baby (a very generous gift card).
