Pregnancy Update

I am almost 13 weeks along now, hard to believe. This pregnancy has definetely gone by a lot faster than my pregnancy with Sydney. Thank you for all the well wishes and congratulations, and thank you to all who have voted in our name poll. We are leaning towards Emmett and Savannah, although Sydney likes Carter and Genevieve. Who knows what we'll decide! Sydney is doing better than I thought she would so far with the pregnancy. She has been very patient with her very tired mama. She says hi to the baby each morning and enjoys looking at baby things with me. As for me...well, I've been better. I've had some days of not eating anything and some days of eating tons of food all day long. I am battling daily headaches and constant fatigue. No, exhaustion is the word to best describe the way I have been lately. I joke that I peak at 11:00 am, and it's all downhill from there! Chris has been great about helping out and making me go to bed early. I am so close to the end of the first trimester, I am very hopeful that I will be feeling better soon. Even to just not feel tired all the time would be a blessing. This week we have our first trimester screening, to check for any chromosomal abnormalities. We would never consider termination if something came up, but we would want to be prepared for whoever God chooses to bless us with. Just a few more weeks and we can find out the gender! Chris, Sydney, and I all think I'm having a boy, but everyone else thinks it's a girl. Either way we will be thrilled! I have been looking at baby bedding. Not sure yet for a girl, there are so many cute girl bedding sets! However, I did choose the boy set in a darling little sports set. Here it is:

I'll keep you all posted as new things develop, and when I get bigger I'll post some belly pictures. Hope you are all well!
