10 Weeks

Baby H is the size of a prune.

10 weeks, 2 days- the baby belly is already in full swing!

Baby Hayden is the size of a prune (or a kumquat, but we couldn't find any!).
                  

Gabe and I spent a lovely Saturday morning strolling through Forsyth Park. We got crafty and posed the camera on a lamp post to get this sweet picture :-) 

All dressed up for Easter.

Best friends and future best friends! Lauren and I at the Fox.
Gabe kindly took our picture at Lauren's request.

Baby Hayden's first swim!

How far along? 10 Weeks

Maternity clothes? Do other clothes exist? Maternity clothes, flowy tops, and loose dresses are pretty much all I'm wearing these days.

Stretch marks? No. Keep up your magic, Palmers!

Sleep: Through the night- mostly. My dreams are vivid and all over the place. Recently, I've started having dreams about being pregnant, some of which are nicer than others. I alternate between dreaming the baby is a girl, and dreaming about all the food I'm not supposed to have. I wonder if my dreams are telling me we're having a little Lorelai? Either way, I know our baby will be a little dreamer :-)

Best moment(s) this week: 

1. My doctor visit Monday- It was so good to hear that everything is fine with our little bean. His/her heart rate is strong, and my sonogram looked great. What a relief!

2. Spending lots of quality time with Gabe and our family this weekend. Gabe and I strolled around downtown Saturday, checked out the farmer's market, and then got a tasty lunch out. It's just so good to walk around together and enjoy the beautiful spring blossoms! Yesterday, we spent Easter with our families. Lunch and dinner were both delicious, and I ate more servings of hashbrown casserole than I care to admit. Baby H was certainly well fed yesterday!

3. This morning I got to see Lauren, which was a wonderful treat! It's amazing to be preggo at the same time and to go through many of the same things together. Since she's farther along than I am, she's also a font of useful information. Hopefully little C and baby H will grow up to be best friends just like us!

Miss Anything? Not really.

Movement: Not yet.

Food cravings: Biscuits and BBQ, smoothies 

Anything making you queasy or sick: Eggs are completely unappealing to me. Ditto, fresh meat section at Publix. I've also been getting nauseous lately if my stomach gets too empty. It's really not too bad though- I feel lucky for how little morning sickness I've had!

Gender: It's still a secret... We find out June 11th!

Labor Signs: No

Symptoms: Fatigue, nausea, acne 

Belly Button in or out? In

Wedding rings on or off? On

Happy or Moody most of the time: Ecstatic! Gabe and I are so happy to be the future parents of little Max or Lorelai! It's incredible how much we already love our little one <3

Looking forward to: Enjoying spring break! Also, my second trimester :-) Time is flying by!
