Boy or Girl?

So this week is a big week for us and baby as we hit 18 weeks. The thought of finding out what our baby is brings tears to my eyes and the anticipation of hearing everything looks good cannot come soon enough.  We have fortunately had the opportunity to check in along the way, but this appointment is a huge milestone and one you look forward to from the day you get pregnant.  Andy has been in Poland the past week and half and returns tomorrow!  I'm so ready to have him home.

This weeks highlights:
This past weekend we celebrated Kim's Bachelorette Party in Nashville, TN.  It was so great spending a weekend with my mom and sisters.  I think it helped that I had plans while Andy was away and it kept my mind off being sick.  Something about being pregnant and having your husband gone is more difficult (maybe it's the hormones).
We returned Sunday morning and I experienced probably my worst day yet.  I found myself laying on my bathroom floor calling Andy balling (like he could do anything from half way across the world:)).  I could not keep anything down and was violently ill all night long. Poor little baby.  I've felt better the past two days (no puking) and have been trying to feed the babe to make up for Sunday.
Tonight I'm getting my first prenatal massage.  I thought I would treat myself and the baby to some R&R.  We'll see how it goes.  My stomach has definitely grown this past week, so I hope they have the cut out for me to lay in.

39 hours and counting until Friday. Here's how excited I am for our appointment and Andy to be home!
