Baby Update - 15 1/2 weeks along

Well, we finally had our first doctor's appointment today. Everything went very well. The doctor just kept commenting on how big the baby is. Just a few more weeks and we will find out if it's a boy or a girl! (We have another regular appointment in 4 weeks and then the exciting ultrasound sometime during the last week in March.) We got a few pictures today. This one is about as active as Jackson was, but isn't nearly as camera-shy. The baby kept "waving" it's hand or foot as we were looking at it. Even the doctor was laughing pretty good. I tried to take a picture of the three of us with one of the ultrasound pictures, but Jackson was not very interested in smiling for a picture. (He was upset because he wanted to play with the baby's picture and I wouldn't let him.) Well, here we are anyway!


I'm feeling good still. Lots more energy than a few weeks ago and we're all excited about that! Food is finally starting to taste better. I have gained 2 pounds, but all of my clothes are still comfortable. However, I'm sure it won't be too much longer before I hit that lovely in-between stage where your own clothes are a little uncomfortable, but the maternity clothes look huge. We found out that Jackson was a boy and I was still in regular clothes, so I guess time will tell. I know that each pregnancy is a little different.
