First Posting

I am going to warn everyone right off the bat..Im a horrible writer! I have always hated it but will try to keep this updated (for all those asking about the pregnancy and Miss Jillian (aka the diva or princess). 
Jillian has turned into quite the lil miss independent girl. She absolutely HATES having her diaper changed. She kicks and screams. I try to tell her not to kick Mommy in the tummy but that doesn't work. She usually listens to Daddy but not Mommy so I can see we are going to buttheads when she becomes a teenager. Like my mom and dad say "pay back is coming!" And, I know they are going to sit back and enjoy every minute of it. I do believe she is going to be a great big sister though. She picks up her baby and gives her kisses and hugs all the time. She also likes to burp her. If you ask Jillian "Where is the baby?" She will point to her tummy. If she is sitting w/ me she will lift up my shirt and give my stomach kisses. Its pretty cute. Once I learn to post pictures I will post the picture of her kissing my belly. 
The pregnancy is going great now! In the beginning it was a little rough. I had my first OB appointment and Dr. Case said that with each pregnancy the symptoms are more noticable. I definitely agree with that. I never felt like this with Jillian but I am feeling so much better now. In the beginning I had to eat ALL the time too feel OK but nothing I mean nothing sounded or looked good. Just the thought of eating made me want to puke. So I figured as much as I had been eating I would have gained 8lbs or more in 8wks but I have only gained 2. Thank god! Hopefully it keeps going that way. We had our 1st ultrasound December 16th and baby is doing great. His/her heartrate was 154. When we had Jillians first ultrasound her heartrate was 181! So thats quite a difference. Could this mean a boy this time;) Well on Monday we go for another ultrasound which screens for Down Syndrome. I am so excited to see the baby again and Dustin is excited to see the baby for the 1st time! I will be 14wks so Im hoping the ultrasound tech will take a glance between the legs! I know its not 100% guarantee but we should be able to tell! 
Well I think I have wrote enough for my first post and will update on Monday on how our ultrasound went!
