Thanks for the idea, Kristin!

Since I have been obsessed with Kristin's baby blog throughout her pregnancy, Pete and I decided that it would be a good idea to follow her lead and start our own baby blog.  Although it is going to be hard to live up to her writing skills, I will do my best.

I am now officially in my second trimester, and I have to say that everyone was right and I am all of a sudden feeling SO much better.  My first three months were not very pleasant...I spent most of my time feeling like I was going to throw up, but never actually following through with it.  Now, I feel great!  Well, at least I feel great 99% of the time.

We had our second appointment yesterday (which was overall uneventful, except for the highlight when we got to hear the baby's heartbeat), and we scheduled our 20-week appointment for June 3rd.  This means that I officially have just under a month to convince Pete that we should find out if the baby is a boy or a girl.  At this point, I think Pete is winning the battle.  When I hear him talk about it and see how much his heart is really set on keeping it a surprise, I can feel myself giving in.  :)
