HOW FAR ALONG?:  15 weeks 3 days.

TOTAL WEIGHT GAIN?: I havent weighed myself this week. I should probably get a scale.

STRETCH MARKS?: NOPE.

SLEEP?: Sleep??? Whats that?!

MATERNITY CLOTHES?: Still wearing my regular jeans with the Bella Band, but its so darn hot, that I would rather wear dresses and shorts

BEST MOMENT THIS WEEK?: Taking the gender reveal pictures with my sister in law, and FINALLY being able to tell everyone! Also, my AMAZING husband surprised me with a trip to New York for my bday next week! Ive never been to NY, so I am BEYOND EXCITED!!!! I cannot wait, time cannot go by fast enough! Oh, and I found out one of my cousins is also preggo, and due only 3 weeks after I am! I am SOOOOO happy for her!!!

WORST MOMENT THIS WEEK?: Ive been REALLY tired lately, and the throwing up has made a comeback. Hopefully it wont stick around for long!

MISS ANYTHING?: Sleeping. Coke. Coffee. Starbucks in general. (This answer hasnt changed.)

MOVEMENT?: I definitely feel her move, just not regularly, or as defined as I know I will feel her in the next few weeks.

FOOD CRAVINGS?: Nothing really. Nothing yet, anyways!

ANYTHING MAKING ME QUEASY / SICK?: Still the smells of meat make me gag a little.

SHOWING YET?: Yup.the belly is growing!

LABOR SIGNS?: Negative!

MOOD?: Ive been a little emotional lately. No crazy outbursts though!

COMPLAINTS?: Nope! Well, i'd like to sleep a full night!  

BELLY BUTTON IN or OUT?: For now, it's in.

WEDDING RINGS OFF or ON?: ON!

LOOKING FORWARD TO...?: NEW YORK!!!!!! And feeling the baby move alot more!

Big sister Harley wanted to get in on the pictures too! 

14 Weeks- Hello 2nd trimester!

HOW FAR ALONG?:  14-ish weeks. I GLADLY welcome the second trimester!

TOTAL WEIGHT GAIN?: +2 lbs. Seems like way more to me!!!

STRETCH MARKS?: NOPE. Only got a few tiny ones with Harley, however I have a feeling I wont be as lucky this time around :(

SLEEP?: Ha! Between my constant having to pee, and the fact that I cannot get comfortable to save my life, sleep is a luxury around here these days.

MATERNITY CLOTHES?: I recently discovered the beauty of the Bella band, so my pre-preggo jeans are finally being used again, yay!

BEST MOMENT THIS WEEK?: Finding out the sex of the baby!!!!! Unfortunately, both sets of parents live far away, so they were told by phone, but we had Ronys siblings over to watch the ultrasound DVD and i made special gender reveal cupcakes for them!! We are keeping a secret to everyone else for now, but we are both very excited, especially me, cuz now I can finally start shopping!

WORST MOMENT THIS WEEK?: I had to go see the dr (again, geeeeez!) because I was having really bad cramping, and the nurse said I needed to be seen right away. I texted Rony on the way there to let him know, and prayed that everything was ok. I went in, and the first thing they did was check for the heartbeat. It was 163- perfect!! After that, I didnt really care what the dr said. She did however, say that I overworked my body, and that I NEEDED to stick to my bedrest. Yea yea I got the message loud and clear this time!    

MISS ANYTHING?: Sleeping. Coke. Coffee. Starbucks in general.

MOVEMENT?: I already feel the flutters from time to time, which the dr said was normal since this is my second pregnancy,  But I cannot wait till Rony and Harley can feel the baby move too!

FOOD CRAVINGS?: Not really. There are times when certain things sound better than others, but generally food is just all around gross right now.

ANYTHING MAKING ME QUEASY / SICK?: Ha, everything?! Mainly the smell of meat being cooked (Umm Hello Kobe's, can you please quit making me queezy everytime I drive by your restaurant?!) and long car rides are NO FUN!

SHOWING YET?: Yup. Far more than I thought Id be this early, but again, the dr said it was normal for a second pregnancy. I still sometimes wonder if people can tell im pregnant, or just have a beer belly, lol.

LABOR SIGNS?: Negative!

MOOD?: Ehh, I have my "down days" which ive mainly attributed to the fact that I went from working full time, and going to school full time, to being home alone most of the day. I have said it several times, I was not biologically programmed to be a stay at home mom/wife. However, im getting more used to it now, and learned that as long as I keep busy (trick is keeping busy, while on bedrest, WHAT?!) im ok. But generally im happy as could be!

COMPLAINTS?: Seriously, whoever said this whole pregnancy thing was easy (Ok, i may have said it the first time around, but I TAKE IT BACK!) was insane. Ive had so many issues, I just dont seem to see the blessed light at the end of the tunnel. And to think, I still have 26 weeks to go, oh my! But thats not really a complaint, as long as little one is healthy and safe in there, Ill take the sleepless nights and the constant visits to the dr anyday! :)    

BELLY BUTTON IN or OUT?: For now, it's in.

WEDDING RINGS OFF or ON?: ON! Seriously, they will have to cut my finger off before I stop wearing my precious ring!

LOOKING FORWARD TO...?: Feeling somewhat normal again. Soon, I hope!

A picture (sorry its not great quality) of our gender reveal cupcake!

So originally I started this blog to keep everyone, near and far, updated on all the wedding plans. Ad granted, I kinda sucked a little on keeping it updated (hey, i had work, school, a kid, and a wedding to plan, dont judge me!) and it may or may not have been almost 6 months since my last update, but Ill try to be better now that im home....all the time (But thats another story!).

So what have we been up to?? Well, lets see...The wedding did in fact take place. It was the most wonderful and amazing day of our lives, filled with our closest family and friends. The weather was PERFECT, and the evening went off without a hitch. We couldnt have asked for a more perfect day over all.

After the wedding Rony and I headed off to our 8 day cruise which was wonderful, and couldnt have come at a better time after all the work and stress of a wedding. We have an amazing time, and were quite sad once we got back :(

A few weeks later we went off to spend a weekend in Savannah GA with the Mayer clan. We stayed in theee most glorious and beautiful house ever, courtesy of some family friends, and spend such a great weekend with the family.

Soon after that, CellBros (Ronys company) took their employees on a weekend getaway to Palm Coast. A whole 4 days of relaxing by the beach, watching cheesy movies, and eating awesome food. It was quite the weekend!

In June Rony celebrated his 31st bday, and fathers day, by going skydiving with his siblings. I had bought him a gift certificate last year, and he finally worked up the courage to do it once Kevin, Milton and Lissie joined in too! According to them, it was the best experience ever, and I was a very cool wife according to the hubby.

anddddd. Merely 4 days after all the bday celebrating...Rony and I found out I was pregnant!!! Thats right...somewhere along all those getaways, and all the celebrating...a little baby Mayer was made (Too much information? haha) despite our efforts to hold off on a little addition for a year or two.

So, thats pretty much everything. You are all officially caught up! Ill add some pictures so that you guys (whoever actually made it this far) wont be bored to tears.
