Baby Boyd 2: 12 Weeks

Baby’s progress: 12 Weeks

Total weight gain for Mommy: I weigh in next week.

Food cravings: I had Cafe Rio twice this week!  (Though, this is a normal craving.) 

Working out: You betcha…as long as my body let's me. 
Clothes?: A bit frustrating not being able to wear all my cute clothes from Christmas.  All of my flowy shirts just make me look too big.  Ironically, tighter is better.  

Mood: Really good!

Sleep:  Had a bad night last week, but mostly good.  Feels so nice!

Movement: I have been sitting so still while laying down to feel something.  Probably just gas bubbles moving around in there.  

Best moment of the week: So here's another no-child-around highlight (what a passionate mother I sound like..geesh!): While Bryan was out of town, his parents watched Lyric over night and into the next evening.  A whole 24 hours by myself.  No husband, no toddler.  I lounged…and lounged…and then lounged a little more.  
How is being pregnant with Lyric around? She's such a joy and keeps me on my feet.  Baby Boyd is feeling a lot of dancing and hearing a lot of stories and songs.  

Baby Boyd 2: 11 Weeks

Baby’s progress: 11 Weeks

Total weight gain for Mommy:  Starting at a good weight (hopefully it all goes like last time!)

Food cravings: Vinegar (like in chips, on salads, and sandwiches), Pizza, and Bread

Symptoms of pregnancy: At 6 weeks my belly popped out! Loving it!  

Working out: Running 2-3 miles, Insanity, and body weight exercises

Mood: In good spirits!  A little more tired than normal.  Lyric doesn’t like the idea of sitting still for Mommy.

Sleep:  Good most of the time.  Already having to get up to go to the bathroom twice a night.  (Apparently your kidneys are on overdrive with baby body building.)

Movement: Not yet.  I am expecting to feel kicking sooner this time though!

Best moment of the week: Bryan and I had a slow morning without child Monday morning.  It was awwwwesome to sit around and be lazy. 

How is being pregnant with Lyric around? I can’t believe we are going to be starting all over again!  Lyric is getting easier (for the most part) so imaging a baby around again makes me a little nervous.

Anything different this second-go-round? My belly is definitely showing more!  Besides that, food choices and energy levels seem to be almost identical…but let's hope that this has no correlation to girls.  We really want a boy!
