First OB Appointment Today! and the dreaded belly picture.

I had a HORRIBLE morning. I was about to get on the floor, kick my feet and start crying. I couldn't find ANYTHING to wear. Nothing. I tried on about 7 different shirts. My boobs are too big, so my button up shirts don't fit. My work slacks don't fit really, so I had to try the bella band. It was a pain in the ass, so I changed pants for the third time to my one and only pair that fits and they are getting tight too. Then to try to find a shirt that works. UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need to go shopping. I'm only 9 and a half weeks and nothing fits. This can't be good.

My day should get better because today at 2:15 we have our very first OB appointment. I am not too thrilled about the pap smear, but I will deal. I just want confirmation that everything is okay!We both can't wait to hear the little heartbeat again.

This is what we woke up to last Friday morning. Our grass was full of snow, but someone, ahem, forgot to turn off the sprinklers, so it melted most of the snow. It was so pretty! My boss called me to tell me not to come in until noon - whoohooo! It snowed almost all morning!


I only have one picture from my phone at Salt Lick. The most amazing BBQ place in the whole entire world. It's right outside of Austin. AMAZING!!!!!!!!!! As you can see, I was happy to be there.

Here is my belly at almost 5 weeks. I thought I was bloated then...

AND HERE IS THE MONSTER NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! It's huge. THIS is why nothing fits. =( I would be happy if it was baby, but this is NOT baby! I am not even 10 weeks yet! This can't be normal. I need to put down the pizza and candy. No more.

9 Weeks!!

How far along? 9 weeks!
Total weight gain/loss: Ugh. About 3 pounds UP. I was horrible this weekend. I am officially only eating healthy from now on!!
Maternity clothes? I put up the stupid maternity jeans. I am not wearing them until I have to. Clothes are tight, but I'm dealing.
Sleep: I'm exhausted ALL THE TIME. All I want to do is sleep. I went to bed around 6 last night because I had a horrible headache. Thankfully it's gone today.
Best moment this week: We are going to Vegas this weekend for his moms wedding. I am the Matron of Honor. Let's hope the dress still fits! haha! AND on Thursday we have our first OB appointment. I am looking forward to hearing our little ones heartbeat.
Movement: Just gas.
Food cravings: Just horrible food. Pizza, candy, you name it.
Gender: We will find out in February.
Labor Signs: No.
Belly Button in or out? Everything is the same.
What I miss: Not being tired. Caffeine.
Weekly Wisdom: Ummm...I don't really have any!
Milestones: Getting to 9 weeks!! So close to the end of this first trimester. Praying we get there and all is okay this Thursday at the appointment.

Alex's brother has been here since last weekend. He leaves today and I'm really happy to have our home back. I love him to death, just miss our privacy! Alex leaves today too though for Nashville. He will be back Wednesday. I would typically enjoy a little time alone, but I am so needy lately that I don't want him to leave!! I will deal, but I'm sad.

The boys put up our Christmas lights on Saturday. It looks amazing! I've been a horrible blogger lately with no pictures, so I will get on that this week!
