I'll want to remember these...

Things I'll want to remember about my pregnancy:

  • We were in our room when I told Makay I was pregnant. I started crying because I was so happy. He held me with a big smile on his face.
  • I immediately started reading What to Expect When You're Expecting. I tried not to read ahead, but I failed at that every week.
  • Dawson and McKinley were the first people we let the news slip to. Dawson jumped up and down, slapped his hands together, and squealed. Kinley continued to say, "Are you serious!?"
  • I first felt the baby move at 16 weeks. I was sitting in the front room reading when I felt that little flutter once, twice, then three times. I couldn't stop smiling.
  • In the beginning of my pregnancy I loved to eat buttered toast. I had in every morning for breakfast and thought I was in heaven.
  • In the middle of my pregnancy (now) I ate at least one orange a day and had to have something with peanut butter on it.
  • No food or smell actually made me throw up, but I can't stand to look at any pictures of McDonald's McRib. It disgusts me.
  • I haven't been sick or tired at all. I've really had a wonderful pregnancy so far--knock on wood.
  • The baby will always move whenever Makay puts his hand on my belly. I'm pretty sure he's going to be a daddy's boy.
