I am now 17 weeks and 4 days!! Wow.. how time flies!!! Last Saturday I started to feel the baby move!!!! It is such an amazing feeling!! What a humbling thought that God has allowed me carry such a miracle!!! Having a small little life inside of me just amazes me each and every day!!
We had a doctors appointment on March 16th and we were able to hear the heartbeat for the first time!!! It was 158 beats!!! What a blessing to be able to hear our little baby's hearbeat!! Ariella got to be there to hear it and she said something while we were listening but just not sure what that was :) We look forward to our next appointment on April 15th which is only 6 days away!!! Ariella will be able to be there and see the baby!!! I know that I will cry when I am in that room looking at my daughter Ariella and looking at our baby in my womb!!! I hope that we will be able to find out what the sex of the baby is!! The lady who does the ulrasounds is so sweet and very good at what she does!!
I am starting to feel much better now and I am able to enjoy my time spent playing with Ariella. I still am having to watch myself and not overexert myself. John and I went camping for our 5 year anniversary on March 19th- 21st!!! We went hiking and that was probable to much for me... my muscl in my upper left leg hurts when I wdo too much walking. I don't let it stop me. I just take some Tylonol and keep on going!!
