Week 17

I can't believe I'm already 4 months along! We had an appointment on September 27th for a check up and to hear the heartbeat. Such a cool experience to hear another heartbeat inside of your body! 

I'm still not "showing" very much but Daniel and I can tell my belly has grown a tiny bit. 

Praise God I'm finally done with the constant nausea! It took 4 months, but hey - as long as that part is over, I'm happy! I have still gotten sick a few times, but mostly because something I ate didn't agree with my stomach. And I finally have energy to work out! I've been trying to walk at least 2 miles a day, and the weather has finally cooled down so I'm not miserably hot when I'm out walking.

Here is my 17 week picture. I promise I will get better at updating my blog, and taking weekly pictures!
