Presents already?!

This little nugget is going to be one spoiled child I know, but sweet Ginger stopped by last night to spoil me for a bit. She brought a pregnancy survival kit with lots of goodies including crackers, ginger ale, lotion for my tummy, a BeBand, Peppermint Patties (yay!), a sleeping mask, and tons of other things to keep me feeling my best.

It's so nice to have my oldest and best friend in on the secret and to see her so excited about little Tuttle 2.0. It's crazy to think how many milestones we've experienced together- high school, college, moving away, coming home, getting married and now a baby! I can't wait to see what the future holds for us...

Surprise!

We're pregnant! It's been quite a week. I took a test around 2:00pm on Monday and then quickly ran out to buy a non-generic version (yes I am a label snob when it comes to pregnancy tests as well). Dr. Naddler confirmed we were pregnant on Tuesday (somewhere around six weeks) and we have our first ultrasound scheduled for August 4th at 3:00pm.

It's amazing how quickly the body starts changing. I'm achy, gassy and way tired but so far not too nauseous. I could sleep constantly but I'm determined to continue my a.m. workout routine considering my pants are already tight in the waist and my boobs have grown almost another cup size.

Currently I'm mostly craving good things like fruit, cottage cheese, carrots and hummus (shocking I know) and chicken but I also can't get enough Sour Patch Kids. Having given up wine for the next eight months I've struck up a love affair with Clausthaler and O' Doul's.

More to come!
