Still playing catch-up

I'm getting closer to being caught up to the present, yay! Our last doctor appointment was on June 28th at 12 weeks and 3 days. We were able to see the baby jumping around like a little jellybean and trying to suck his/her thumbs. We were able to get some great ultrasound pictures as well, and now it looks like there's a real baby in there, instead of a gummy bear. According to one of the pictures, it's a boy, but I'm pretty sure that's just a leg.  :)  We probably won't be able to find out the gender until 20 weeks, which seems like a really long time from now!

Mike and I are doing great as well. I've been feeling pretty good so far and hope that continues. I'm mostly just tired and hungry all the time. Hopefully I've avoided morning-sickness since I'm almost into my 2nd trimester, but I'm still I'm going to jinx myself, so knock on wood! Mike has been feeling fine too, haha! He's just having to adjust to me falling asleep at 9pm and constantly wanting to eat everything. Luckily I've only gained a couple pounds so far, so I must be doing something right. I did have to break out my "expand-a-pants" rubber band the other day, but most of my clothes still fit fine. Mike's been a great support for me and we're both getting so excited!

Our next appointment is this Tuesday, July 12th where we will be meeting our new doctor. Our last one only sees patients for the first trimester, so it's on to the next. I hope we like her!

Here's Baby Fall at 12 weeks:
That's a leg!

Baby heartrate is 162 bpm, so cute to hear!

No, we're not having an alien.
