The Zoo, Pregnancy, ect

Saturday we went to Memphis to pick up Kerri from the airport. In the meantime, we went to the Memphis Zoo; which I think is a pretty cool place. Despite the fact that it was atleast 50 degrees outside and really windy, we had a good time. Sam was partially interested. He loves looking at the fish, so the aquarium part was probably his fave.

I keep forgetting that I can actually blog about my pregnancy. I didn´t have a blog with Sam, so I´m excited this time around. So far I believe I am about 10 weeks. This pregnancy has already been pretty different from Sam´s. By 9 weeks I had already had an ultrasound of him; I haven´t even been to the doc yet, which has actually been kind of nice. I really want to see the baby though...or babies, you never know, twins run in both sides of our family!

I´ve been sleepy like I was with Sam. I´ve been lucky to catch many naps though. Stephen got up every morning with Sam during Spring Break and I actually got to sleep until 10 or 11; I thought that would never happen again! Although I am getting up atleast once a night already to go to the bathroom, so it´s not like I´m getting uninterrupted sleep :).
I wasn´t nauseas at all with Sam. So far I have been with this baby. I´m happy for the mostly constant gaggy feeling though, it´ll be worth it in the end...or beginning, whichever you prefer. The crazy thing about a 2nd pregnancy is that I´m already showing a little. My friend actually rubbed my belly yesterday at church! (You are allowed by the way - only because I know you and you feed me) Lol, I look like I have a little beer belly, or a ¨food baby¨ as my sister calls it.

Speaking of my sister, Chelsea, is moving to Arkansas next month. What´s fun about this pregnancy is that she is pregnant too. We are about a week apart! How insane is that?! I think it would seriously overwhelm my mom if we went into labor on the same day. Ha ha, these babies will be grandbabies #5 and #6 for my mom.

I´ll start posting pics once my belly starts growing more, but for now it´s nothing fantastic.

Here´s the zoo pics:

Groundhog hole - You can go underground, pop your head up in this little bubble, and watch the groundhogs!

This is how easy labor is *snicker*

Yee haw!

Those are piranhas and Sam is licking the tank. Gross.

This was my favorite part! The seahorses were sooo cool!

This was Stephen´s favorite. I got a video of this dude tearing up some bamboo.

WHOOPS!!! Sorry about the belly rub Sunday...YIKES! It's been so long since I was last pregnant (almost 11 years ago!) that I have forgotten that it can be annoying and over-stepping personal bounderies...sorry! :O)

Enjoyed the pictures...so cute! I especially like Sam in the "egg shell" and the panda! Thanks for sharing...and for being so gracious about the belly pat (which was me just showing Baby D some love)! ;o)

Vicky - I didn´t even remember you rubbing my belly! Lol! Probably because it´s completely alright with me if you do! It weirds me out for people that I don´t know to touch me, otherwise, you just go right ahead!
