Pig Sooie

So I'm at the very end of week 17 (week 18 kicks off tomorrow). I haven't posted in forever, so an update is much over-due. Week 16 was very eventful. I went for a check-up which was normal and against my will got a H1N1 immunization. Then 3 days later I was down with the sickness. Yup the swine flu got me. But I only had one day of aches and fevers. Then it was a couple days of vacation. So all that TV hype is just that HYPE. The bad news was I dropped back down to my pre-baby weight with being sick. So know I am on an eating mission (and the baby is on a growing mission).

Week 17 has been much healthier. I am gaining weight and my belly is really starting to grow. I even felt the baby kick for the first time this week (the greatest feeling ever). For Halloween I dress up as a ladybug (both at work and for trick or treating). We handed out candy at our new house which was very fun. Below are some pictures. The ladybug outfit (week 17) and a belly shot (which is from week 16). I'll post some new stuff soon.






















































PS: 2 weeks until we find out if we have a little boy or girl on the way. I'm guessing a boy, Chuck says girl. But I had a dream the other night that Chuck's mom told the EMTs when they came to get me to go to the hospital (that better not happen) that I was having a girl. We shall see.
