Happy Monday!

I wanted to share my little pumpkin's progress with you all!

I am 13 weeks along, with only 189 days to go. Ha!

There's not a whole lot to see yet in the way of a "bump", but I promised myself to take a few pictures along the way to document my changes. The little nugget is about the size of a key lime now, and we heard it's heartbeat a few weeks ago. What a sweet sound that was!

I've felt great so far, nothing weird or out of the ordinary besides the normal preggo fatigue (which really cramps my style - I don't like to sit down very much!). I recently had a cold, but that is about as bad as I've felt! Cooking this tiny bun does have some fun perks though - my hair is thicker and growing fast, as are my fingernails. I took pre-natal vitamins for about 8 months before we decided to start a family, so my hair and nails were already changing over the summer. I read that taking the vitamins before becoming pregnant can help with the morning sickness...since I haven't had any, maybe that's actually true!

I'm attempting to continue to eat healthy - lots of fruits and veggies - but it's been difficult to resist the Halloween candy! I'm having a little coffee in the mornings, but drinking maja amounts of water - I've been crazy thirsty!

We've got an appointment this week for a checkup with my new doctor here in Gainesville...we'll discuss the tests I need to take, discovering the gender, and how the baby and I are progressing. I am loving every minute of it all while learning a lot too. Our families and friends have been so supportive and excited for us...we feel so much love for Baby Griffin already!
