Updates!

Hi friends! Life is rolling along here in Starkvegas! Football season begins today and can I say I am excited for football. I am hoping that football games can help Adam forget how terrible the Cardinals have been playing. Sorry babe! Even though we live in Bulldog country, we still have allegiance to Southern Miss. We will be traveling a good bit this fall to USM games. 'Lil Knight will get exposure early!

So I have seen these types of posts on other people's blogs and thought it was a great way to remember this time and maybe even compare with future kiddos. I am not sure if I will post an update each week of pregnancy but will try to be consistent. Eventually I will post a picture to go with the highlights but this week I don't have one and 'Lil Knight is only making me look a little bloated. So here goes:

Pregnancy Highlights:
How Far Along: 11 weeks

Size of baby: 1 ½ inches. The baby is the size of a fig

Total Weight Gain/Loss: Lost 3 lbs

Maternity Clothes: Still wearing my normal clothes but they are snug across my belly. A friend loaned me some maternity clothes but I am putting off wearing them as long as I can.

Gender: Don’t know yet

Movement: Haven’t felt any movement yet.

Sleep: I used to be such a sound solid sleeper until pregnancy…Now I have to go the bathroom at least 3 times a night and am having CRAZY dreams. Poor Adam can’t get a restful night of sleep because of me!

Symptoms: Nausea, extreme fatigue, light-headed, dizziness, achy all over (Come on 2nd trimester)

What I miss: My pants closing easily and fitting comfortably.

Cravings: Last week I was craving salads! This week I am craving sleep!!!

Best Moment this week: Trying on maternity pants!! They felt SOO good across my bloated belly!

What I am looking forward to: 2nd trimester boost!!
