Lee’s Corner

Hey everybody!!! I’ve been patiently figuring out how to handle a pregnant wife. So far it has been pleasant. I try to pick up a few extra chores and pick up my clothes that don’t quite make it to the hamper since E is busy growing our child. I’m getting very excited and am ready to find out what it is so I can go ahead and start shopping for baseball gloves and camouflage (just a hunch).

E has been a great pregnant wife so far. She definitely is Glowing and is looking prettier every day. Thankfully there has been no morning sickness or mood swings to deal with. I honestly think this experience has made our marriage 100 times stronger and I am ready to expand our little family.

There is still a lot of work that needs to be done to the house: moving furniture, painting rooms, buying new furniture, baby cloths, etc. I’ll leave all the shopping up to E….I’ll be the manual laborer.

Month 4 Doctor's Appointment

We had our monthly appointment this morning. Everything sounded great! We were able to hear the heartbeat for a few minutes. We also heard the little bleps of the baby moving around.

Our next visit is for the BIG ultrasound on June 17th!

Week 16

Here we are (Bella, Baby G and me, that is) at 16 weeks. Think someone is starting to feel left out?! Time is flying by and we are looking into furniture and bedding which I am finding to be really overwhelming. There are a lot of choices and I am having a hard time making a decision, which is really not like me at all!

Baby G is moving on up to the size of a naval orange, weighing 2 to 3 ounces and 4.5 inches. It's able to move around, breathe and suck...but, I have not felt anything yet. I am hoping to feel some action in the next few weeks.

Week 13

Here we are at 13 weeks. I have a little bump, barely visible under most of my clothes. My jeans don't button, so I'm getting help from the Bella Band! I have ordered some maternity pants & tops from The Gap and have a feeling I will be living in dresses this summer!

We are moving through the vegetable aisle as we reach the end of the first trimester. Right now Baby G is about 3 inches long or the size of a peach. Intestines and vocal cords are developing this week. I am feeling a lot more energetic and am looking forward to the long warm days of summer.
