Size of baby: Baby Smith is the size of a blueberry.  

Maternity Clothes: No way!
Gender: This week, I think it's a girl but I'll probably change my mind again next week!  :)
Movement: None, of course.
Sleep:  I am sleeping a little better this week, so that's great news!  Still not sleeping through the night, but I'm guessing that might not ever happen!
What I miss: Sleeping in, enjoying food, being a person who isn't constantly nauseous. 

Cravings:  I think we had our first craving run this week!  I looked at Brad and said, I think donuts sound good at 10pm Friday night.  He said, ok, let's go get some!  So we went and got donuts and they were Yummy! ....I'm starting to see why they say the hubby gains weight too!  Ha ha!  
Symptoms: constant nausea and dry-heaving at least one session per day.  Yuck!!

Best Moment this week:  Telling my brother who didn't even let me get "I'm pregnant" out of my mouth before he shouted, "That's awesome, Sammy!".  Love him!

Sleep: I'm still having trouble falling and staying asleep.  DH is sleeping like a rock, which is starting to drive me crazy!
What I miss: Sleeping in...
Cravings:  Nothing, I've been having some constant low grade nausea since Friday, so nothing is sounding good.

Best Moment this week:  Seeing Baby Smith's heartbeat on the ultrasound. 

Biblical Meaning of Numbers

I decided to look up the biblical meaning of some numbers today.  So sweet and perfect!

1 - The number one is also used when marking the beginnings of things. Unity is very common when defining this number, for it stands alone and cannot be divided
{January is the month that DH & I conceived LO.  Unity is just a great word for the month of January this year.}

10 - deals with completeness that happens in a divine order or completed during a course of time. There's nothing that is left wanting within the complete cycle the number "ten" has just completed.
{LO is due in October.  :) }

16 - deals in reference to the things that deals with love. To have passion and hold dear. To cherish and have devotion towards things
{LO is due October 16th.  I know this will be a new kind of love that we can't even understand quite yet.}

Blog Challenge - Days 8 & 9

Since, I am horrendous at keeping up with my blog challenge, I am just making myself catch up whenever I can.  And I can't fall asleep (surprise), so I figure this is a great time to catch up!

Day 8 – A song to match your mood

I'm really loving the song:  There is a God by Lee Ann Womack.  It's playing in the playlist on the bottom of this page.  Just feeling lucky and blessed lately.  :)

Day 9 – A photo of the item you last purchased

Well this is a fun one!

I just bought this book to track my pregnancy.  It has a spot for weekly bump pictures, ultrasound pictures, cravings, morning sickness, family reactions, etc.  I think it will be a great journal for my pregnancy, and I will be sure to write a review once it comes in the mail!

5 weeks

I'm 5 weeks today...only 35 more! Ha!

Size of baby: Baby Smith is the size of an apple seed. 

Total Weight Gain/Loss: 0lbs

Maternity Clothes: No, no, no maternity clothes.  I am hoping to hold off on those for as long as possible.  :)
Gender: DH & I are planning on finding out, but I think we are having a boy.  :)
Movement: None, of course.
Sleep: I am having a terrible time staying asleep.  I am a sleeping girl.  I used to be able to sleep anytime, anywhere, and now I CANNOT stay asleep!  I'm waking up 2-3 times a night to use the bathroom, and having a terrible time falling back asleep. I also wake up around 5am or 6am and just cannot fall back asleep.  (I don't have to get up until 7am during the week!)  My mom says, my body is preparing me to stay awake with Baby Smith when he/she comes, but holy cow he/she's not here yet!
What I miss: Cherry Coke & Starbucks.  :(
Cravings:  None yet, but I would say I am "craving" all healthy foods because I am worried about consuming the "right" foods for the baby.
Symptoms: Exhaustion yet can't stay asleep, metal mouth, bloated!, a little more emotional, but overall I am just very, very happy and thankful for this pregnancy. 

Best Moment this week:  My mom told her best friend, and she gave me a big congratulation hug yesterday.  It's still a little bit of a secret for now, but it feels good to share my joy with others.  :)

Blog Challenge - Day 7

Happy Thursday!  Today's blog challenge is your dream wedding.  Well this is pretty easy for me since I had my dream wedding this summer!  I have dreamed of a beach wedding since I was little, and I was lucky enough to have 60 of our closest friends and family travel across the country to make that dream come true.  It was a beautiful week and day, and we will treasure it forever.  Enjoy!
