15 week appointment

OK so this is way overdue but its the thought that counts right? So here is the scoop...
We had a doctors appointment on Wednesday, November 18th. Nothing to out of the normal: pee test (which by the way I am getting really good at peeing in a cup!), heartbeat (a strong 150), and a chat with Dr. Wing. Everything seems to be right on track and checking out just fine. I did get a new prenatal vitamin since my old one was making me sick every time I took it. I can tell my iron levels are up because I have a ton more energy since I switched vitamins! Yeah for more energy! Our next appointment is Wednesday, December 16 and if the little one will corporate we will be able to find out the gender!

Other things of interest right now:

Food-
I am loving everything there is about food right now. I am not having any one craving but when I want something, I really have to go get it usually! Yesterday was queso dip from Carlos O'Kelly's. Other random cravings include: Cesar salad, baked potato, ruffle chips with dip, and cake doughnuts (chocolate, vanilla or strawberry icing).

Holidays-
I am also really excited for this time of year! I know that after January 5th or so, I will be super depressed because it will be cold and the holidays will be over, but I am really looking forward to the next month and a half. We decorated our tree at work on Monday and played Christmas music the whole time so that made me look forward to all of the family time we will be having.

Travel-
Over the next two months Jason and I will both be busy traveling. Jason leaves on Friday for Nashville and will be there for a week and a day. While Jason is gone my Grandma Cook will be here visiting which I always look forward to spending time with her.I have plenty of good actives planed for us including looking the festival of trees and Doughy Joeys cheeseburger pizza! Once Jason returns we will be home for two weeks then we will be headed out of Iowa for Christmas. We are both very excited about spending time with our families.

Babies-
For those of you that don't know right now there are three other family members who are having babies! Needless to say if you don't want to get pregnant right now you shouldn't drink the same water as anyone related to me!

Ashley (Jason's bother, Alex's girlfriend) is due December 31st. We will be in LA from December 22nd though the 27th so Ashley if there is anyway you could have the baby around that time we would love to meet the new little one!

Margo (my sister) is due January 7th however the doctor told her that if she was to into labor anytime after December 1st they would let her have the baby. So Margo, I would really like you to have her either before December 19th (maybe the 17th or 18th) or between the 28th and 30th...could you work on that please!

Natalie (my cousin) is due May 29th....I will get back to you about your due date. Right now the 29th will be fine with me.


Ok, enough rambling for now. We hope you all have a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving holiday.
