17 weeks!!

I am 17 weeks today!

I have been feeling so much better and getting my appetite back. I am hungry ALL the time. I don't seem to get enough. It is so much better than despising food. :) I am cramping and stretching a lot, but the doctor says that's pretty normal to feel it more when you have already had one baby. Man, I don't remember stretching like this at all with Braylon. I am so worried about how big this baby is going to be. Chris was over 10lbs at birth and I do not want it to be that big. We shall see! :)

I found this questionnaire on a couple of blogs so I thought I would try and fill it out every week to help me track the pregnancy.

How far along? 17 weeks
Total Weight Gain/Loss? 23 lbs lost
Maternity clothes? Yes, majority of them are. I need to go shopping to get some more!
Stretch marks? No new ones. ;)
Sleep: Good. Just up once or twice a night to pee.
Best moment this week: Braylon coming up to me and telling the baby "Hi" and laying his head on my belly. I love it when he shows interest in the baby on his own.
Movement: Not really, I sometimes think I can feel him/her.
Food cravings: None
Gender: Don't know yet, but will in 2 1/2 weeks!!!!!
Labor Signs: None
Belly Button in or out? In
What I am looking forward to: My sonogram in 2 1/2 weeks!!!
Weekly Wisdom: Your two year old will find a way to snuggle on your lap given the lack of space. :)
Milestones: Liking food again.

We will be heading to Manhattan tonight for the K-State game tomorrow. I am sure I will have some more tailgating pictures to share!

Catching up/New Look

As you can tell I have given the blog a little face lift. I was trying to clean it up and make it easier to read. Hope you all like it! I am working on a cool new header!!

Braylon Riding the train at the Seneca Church Picnic!
Our first K-State game of the year. We had plan on taking Braylon in with us, but he decided not to take a nap and was SUPER cranky come game time. So Nana Feldkamp took him home. But the kid LOVED tailgating!

Just chilling watching his movies. (Yes I have a thumb sucker)

All of us at Rosie and Josh's wedding dance.

Quick Baby Update(more to come)

Okay, I know I have been really bad about blogging lately. I just can't get the urge to sit if front of a computer when I get home (I sit in front of one for 8 hours a day). But I am hoping to get better at it again soon!

Anyway, I had my 16 week checkup yesterday and everything still looks good. I am still losing weight, I am at about 22 lbs lost. Doctor isn't too concerned about it since my uterus size is right on track (plus I wasn't a small girl to begin with;) ). The doctor found the heart beat right away and it was nice and steady in the 150s. She just put the doppler on and there it was, nice and strong. I LOVE that sound! I do not believe in the old wives' tale about the heart rate. Braylon's was always in the 150's and we know how that turned out. We'll just have to wait and see in 4 short weeks to find out if it is a boy or girl. I am starting to get really excited about finding out! I still think it is another boy, but everyone seems to think its a girl. We'll see who's right! We took Braylon with us to the doctor this time and he did NOT like the doctor putting the doppler on mommy. He cried and whimpered the whole time. The doctor said most kids his age are like that the first time around and it will get better so not to hesitate to keep bringing him.

I will try and get some pictures up tonight on what has been going on over the last month.
