Pregnancy Updates - 17 weeks

Well gang, I am officially 17 weeks into this journey to Murgatroyd! So far I haven't had many cravings, other than strawberry-mango margaritas (no thanks to my family having margaritas while we were in Tulsa) and Moscato wine... Funny that I have been craving alcohol since I very rarely drink. I think it is the sweet and fruitiness of the drinks that I have wanted.

I have found that Costco smoothies are a nice substitute for my margaritas that I've craved! To date I really haven't had morning sickness and hopefully since I am in my second trimester I won't... I'm gaining my energy back and now that I have gone on leave from my babysitting have more time to rest on the weekends!

I feel blessed to have such wonderful family and friends willing to share their maternity clothing and baby gear! We can't wait to find out our little monkey's gender in 3 weeks! Tomorrow is my belated 16 week appointment (actually 17 week but couldn't fit the appointment into the provider and my schedule last week!).
