Week 13: What a week!

This week I had to start working again...really miss summer vacation already! but I am hoping that working and moving around everyday will help me lose/maintain my weight better. Over the summer I watched alot of lifetime movies and kept the couch warm so my weight started to quickly then slowly creep up...more than the "recommended" amount for sure. =/ I am praying my weight starts to even out and slow down now that I am in my 2nd trimester :) YAY!

so yes, this week getting my classroom together was stressful. Even Momma called out of work one day to help me get everything together! I will have to post pictures soon! Loving my new curtains my Mom made me and the way my classroom looks now :)

Met my new kids on Thursday, and praying for a fantastic year this year! Maybe they will be sweet and caring since I am pregnant. :) Can only hope and pray!

This week though I have been a little down and out though. I am having a complex about this weight gain and body changing thing. I've cried a few times because though I know I am pregnant...I just look chubby. =/ not pregnant at all. Vernon says he notices I have been a little down and out about my looks so he has been really sweet to me :) Just gaining weight (getting fat) scares me but VERY thankful for the blessing God has given me :) I can not wait to see our baby boo again!!! I am hoping we can see him/her within the next 5-6 weeks! Just seems so far away...=(

How far along? 13 weeks

Month: August 2012

Baby is as big as a: PEACH! :)

Total weight gain: I don't even wanna know...=( I am hoping I am maintaining at +10lbs.

Maternity clothes? Only jeans because my regular jeans are super tight on my tummy.

Stretch marks? really need to start rubbing lotion on my belly (and everywhere else) I try to remember but not every night.

Sleep: Is so-so. I think the excitement of starting school has got me not sleeping well.

Best moment this week: meeting my kids at school :)

Nicknames:Baby Boo or Sweet Baby Masters

Food cravings: raviolis and butter bread has been a major craving! and peanut butter/chocolate protein shakes.

Missing: my smaller body, my cute work clothes, and seeing baby boo on a sonogram.

Anything making you queasy or sick: not in a while.

Gender: Thinking more girl now because the way I am getting wiiiddde..but we will see sooner than later!

Symptoms: boobies are sore and sometimes cramps from stretching.

Belly Button in or out? innie! Just took my belly ring out and have a belly ring tan line! =P

Mood: blessed! excited, exhausted and anxious to see baby boo.

Exercise: was doing very well with going to gym and walking but this week it's only been working hard in my classroom! 

Looking forward to: one last relaxing weekend before school starts again! I also have a doctor's appointment on Friday...but not sure if I am looking forward to it. It will tell me if my baby has down sysyndrome and other birth defects..=/ plus the weight gain thing. EEK! but I'd love to hear baby boo's heartbeat again!! :)

13 weeks and 5 days...wishing I had a REAL baby belly and not look like I have ate 100 donuts!
