12 weeks

Three months in and I'm already a bad mother. I keep forgetting to take pictures. The issue I have is that for a few weeks I had a bump and it seemed to look pretty real. I could not fit in my pants and had to wear maternity pants for a while. Well suddenly the bump is gone. I'm back in my regular jeans and just look like I've put on a couple pounds. So strange. That being said, I didn't really want to take pictures because there isn't much to take pictures of.

On a happy note, we felt you move for the first time Thursday night (3/15). It was great. It was just the tiniest little flutter but I'm sure that was you. Then again on Saturday night just as I closed my eyes to fall asleep, you started to do back flips or something and I woke up Dad to make him feel. And there you did it, three big taps. I have not felt you since but it was a comfort to know you were still in there. You go a month between doctor appointments and your mind starts to worry about how much can happen in a month. Next week we will see the doctor and hear your heartbeat again. And after today you are in the "safe zone" and I am less likely to miscarry. We officially announced the pregnancy and people could not be happier. You are already so loved.
