Week 13 (I got a little behind)

We're at trimester two! Itty biddy and I have made it through the first third of pregnancy and we're that much closer to meeting each other face to face. This past Wednesday Nathan and I heard the heartbeat for the first time. The strong, fast, healthy baby heartbeat that leads our doctor to believe that I am carrying a HEALTHY baby and that we are right where we need to be in development. Our next appointment isn't until week 16, so in the meantime I just have to keep eating (mostly) healthy, getting sleep, and avoiding the things that are dangerous for itty biddy.
Nathan and I have decided on the theme for the nursery, and it's gender neutral. Lion King animals! If we have a girl we'll make it girlier animals of course, but the carpet in the nursery is brown and the walls are pale yellow, so a lion king theme with baby lions, elephants, and other safari animals would be adorable. I got the first items for the baby as well. A tiger blanket and monkey rattle and blanket. They're so cute!

Nathan and I have been doing really well as well. Hearing the heartbeat made him really realize that he's going to be a dad and that I really am housing our baby. He looked like he was nearly in tears when he first heard the heartbeat.

Well I think that's about all I needed to update on, things just got a little crazy for the past month, moving to a new apartment, some financial distress, some future family insanity. Now things have finally returned to calm and normal and I can focus on school, nathan, and staying healthy for itty biddy =)
