Wooohooo 2nd Trimester!

What a nice day to start the 2nd trimester! A beautiful sunny day, and a nice bbq with friends to end the day. I am finally getting a bit of an appetite and it feels good! I'll just have to be more careful this time around...don't want to feel like a whale by the end of this!

I can definitely say that I feel the baby moving now. I wasn't sure the past few weeks but now I am positive :) I had some juice just a couple minutes ago and am feeling some definite flutters. Finally I'm getting to the fun stuff!

I'm trying to enjoy all of it this time because wishing it away until the time baby comes will only cut my time short with Julia. I can't help but feel guilty that I'm doing this to her...maybe I'm just emotional. I don't know, I think giving her a sibling is one of the best things we can do for her but also I feel like I'm taking away from her. I'm sure it will all come together in the end. She is so funny, this is such a fun age. We asked her if she wanted a sister or a brother and she said "brudder", then we asked what his name should be and she replied, "foxy todd." foxy todd?! lol!! We realized she got it from The Fox and the Hound. The fox is named Todd. What a character she is. I'll have to make sure I write that one down. I hope we can make this somewhat understandable and fun for her...

Still trying to decide on if we'll find out the sex or not. I really don't know what my instinct is anymore. I guess if I stick with my first it is boy, but I think I can imagine a girl easier because I grew up with a sister. I'm not sure!! I'm worried that if we don't find out I might drive myself crazy. Still have 6 weeks to decide. I'll keep working through all my thoughts! After holding Haylia tonight all the good little girl feelings came back...baby girls are so sweet!

Next appointment is June 11th. Not too far off. All the icky stuff for this one though, ladies you'll know what I mean!
