Dear Deuce,
I am starting to feel better, I think. The nausea is not so bad these days, and I am getting over my week long cold finally! Your Papa, Brother and I have been down for the count over the last few days and the ease in symptoms has been a much needed change. Also, yay, the weather is perking up too. Hooray for sunshine! Heaven knows I need some of that natural Vitamin D.
Sadly though, despite the nausea, I am gaining weight--which is to be expected, but perhaps not as quickly as I am packing it on right now. I hope with the warmer weather I can get out a little more and start eating a whole lot better. The forecast says three more days of 50 degree weather, so big brother and I might have to take advantage of that, at the very least.
In other news, I think I can feel you every once in a while. I settle into bed and night and just press my hands to my tummy, hoping to disturb you just a little bit so you will twitch and move. Again, you are still pretty small my little avocado, but this mommy can hope.
Love you!
Mama

Dear Little One,
Guess what? Great news! We have a new car. I could jump for joy I am so thrilled with the beauty of an automobile we have. She is a white GMC Terrain that your Grandpa Brant helped us get a honey of a deal on. She has just 4 cylinders and great mileage and boy am I glad to be free to leave the house whenever I want. This Spring and Summer will be full of adventures for us little Deuce.
The new car, I call her Bianca and your Papa asks "why?" I don't understand why he is so adamant about naming vehicles, but when I come up with a name for what I am riding/driving he always looks flummoxed. When he told me we might be getting a new car and what it was, I started thinking about a name, because I knew he would ask me about it. Well, when we did end up picking up the car later that night I immediately told him the name I picked out. "Why?" I don't really have an explanation for that. I just like the name, I like the Rescuers mouse of the same moniker, and she is white. I thought it suited her, but I guess I still need practice. Just you wait until we get to pick out your name! That will be an adventure, for sure.
Well little one, I just thought I would update you on the goings on in this crazy life you are about to join. I love you so much and hope all is going well in there.
Hugs,
Mama

Hello Presidents Day!
And hello second trimester!
We had an early morning appointment today with our favorite doctor. Before going, we dropped off big brother to G.G.'s house and then made way to American Fork. Papa and I were very excited to hear your little heart beat again and make sure everything is trucking along as it should.
Apparently you are now the size of a lemon, or something, and you can even squint. I can only imagine those tiny eyes working inside of me. Its a bit surreal, for sure. You can also suck your thumb, which I can say if you are developing that habit in the womb I am going to try and break it as soon as you are out.
As for me, I am sick with a cold. The whole family is sick in fact. Not fun, I can tell you. But, on the up side, Dr. Willis told me I can use any of the over the counter cold medicines to help with the symptoms. Yay! I will be saying hello to a dose of NyQuil tonight so hopefully I can get sleep. Sleep! That is really all I want right now. Phew, it tiring trying to help you and help my ailing body. I have been super spent the last few days and try to lay down or nap at any chance I get.
Love you,
Mama
