We're having a....

Gina - Whoops! It's been a while since I last updated this blog. So much has happened since then. My chest is continuing to grow, so is my belly and the heartburn doesn't stop! What is with the damn heartburn? I have stretch marks on my hips and I am gaining the weight that I need to be (and gaining it fast). Despite all of these annoying body changes, I couldn't be more excited to become a mama.

My wedding is next Friday, and I am so excited. I am glad we decided to have a destination wedding. It just seems so much easier to plan when it's small. We are getting married in Sedona, Arizona overlooking the red rocks. Let's just hope the weather cooperates. Next time I update this blog, I will be Mrs. Chuck Norris! How badass is that?!

I spent last Thursday back in the hospital getting IV fluids. After 2 days of nausea and vomiting, my doctor sent me in to get hydrated. I felt a million times better after I left. I even stopped at McDonalds and had myself a greasy double cheeseburger. I realize that's not the healthiest thing to eat while pregnant, but I didn't eat for 2 days. I caved and went for it!

Charlie and I had our 20 week ultrasound last Friday. The best news of the day was that everything looked normal and that the baby was healthy. The one weird thing about about my exam was that I have an extra lobe on my placenta. DO NOT google it. It's disgusting! But apparently that won't hurt the baby at all. They just have to make sure that they get both parts of the placenta when I deliver. Who knows what caused that, maybe a vanishing twin?

We also found out that we were going to be having a baby GIRL and we couldn't be more excited! We had our family over last weekend to share the news. Yes, we copied Jillian and Eric's idea of having the cake reveal our baby's gender. Most of our family thought we were going to have a boy, so when they cut into the cake and saw pink they really seemed surprised. Here is a cute photo of our baby girl...


Bring on the pink!
