Get out of mah belly

As I’m sure most of you already know, Chad and I are expecting our first baby in March!

We’re already in the 3rd month and are just getting around to setting up a weblog with pictures and to record the events of the pregnancy. We’re naughty parents-to-be. Now that it’s here, though, we do intend to update the blog often, so stay tuned!

The basic details of the pregnancy so far: Current due date is March 17, 2007, St. Patrick’s Day! I hope I am wrong, but I have a feeling based on family history that it’ll be weeks after that when the baby actually comes. Whether it’ll be a he or she that comes we won’t know until it’s here, Chad and I don’t intend to find out the sex before the birth. While we wait, we’ve been busy preparing – emptying our guest room as well as getting and building a crib and other furniture for the nursery that we are setting up in there. And I’ve been busy being sick and tired. I am nauseous all day and night, have had migraines, and am constantly exhausted. But, I am just entering the 2nd trimester and have been told by reliable sources that I will be feeling better soon. Despite having lost some weight, I am definitely starting to show, as you can see in the pictures below that Chad took this evening.

We are having another ultrasound on Friday and plan to work more on the nursery this weekend (morning sickness allowing), I expect to have pictures from both and another update to share soon.
