Week 12

So big countdown this week waiting for the lucky second trimester to start. I am hoping with the start of week 13 my nausea will decrease.

We spent the weekend outside working in the yard and attending some activities. I split up 5 of my huge hosta on Saturday, washed dogs and we went to our neighborhod block party that night. There we were able to share our news with a lot of neighbors and caught up with people we see 2-3 times a year. My back was really tight after all the digging. John was mowing while I dug and hung out with Evie, our 4 year old neighbor. She was checking out the bugs in the plants and "helping." I also showed her how Milo loves to chase water out of the hose. I got sprayed twice:)

On Sunday we got up early and went to the Dog 'n Jog at the Plaza. We did the 2 mile walk. Last year I ran, but was not up to it this year. But when I saw people with 11 min, 30 sec miles I should have! We were back home by 10 am. I was out talking to our neighbor Ron about plants and we got involved in a hosta exchange. We traded plants, I planted some of my split hosta and gave the rest to our neighbors across the street. John trimmed back the holly and we hung out with the Tripletts (Evie's family) again. All in all a busy weekend. I was bushed.

So baby wise this week we are seeing more reflex movement, especially fingers and toes. The baby is about the size of a pacifier this week and growing quickly!

Hope everyone is having a good week!
