OH baby 14 weeks

Weeks seem like they're flying by these days!  My appetite is coming back but I'm trying to watch it and still get vegetables and good protein.  I used to do protein shakes in the morning but I just couldnt do it so early but I'm making an effort to try again. I have been slacking on working out which isn't like me so I'm getting back into that too.

I did hot yoga a few weeks back, to the instructors dismay, and absolutely loved it.  I love a good sweat and after keeping with running for a while I knew I couldn't keep that up forever but I need to feel like I'm working out.  Regular yoga doesn't give me a work out, so I tried Bikram!  With all these out of control hormones a good hour and half to breathe, stretch, sweat, and meditate is heavenly.  I've made little goals to just get more exercise like parking far and always taking the stairs at work but nothing major except for Bikram.

Feeling my belly potrude little by little. Again, nothing that anyone else would know but I can feel my body changing!  Pants are a teensy bit tight. I have no idea what I'm going to do about jeans. For shirts I'm hoping to avoid maternity shirts and just buy bigger sizes.

Dayton has been everything to me during this pregnancy. Waking me up to drink water, doing dishes, and helping out with things that I find myself often completely exhausted to do.  He's my biggest cheerleader. He's always getting excited with me and giving me sneak peeks into his "dad mode" that he'll be taking on soon.  I really can't explain the overwhelming love thats grown in me for Dayton.  He can come off with sort of the tough guy attitude (I've yet to see the man cry) and always tries to lighten a sad mood with a joke or two.  But I wish people knew the Dayton that I knew.  He's so genuinely sweet to me. ANYWAY. That isn't about the baby. How do those dramatic tangents happen so fast? So yes, I am still in love with Dayton in case anyone was dying to know (right) if pregnancy hormones have put our marriage on the rocks.  Not a chance.

Sleeping is getting more and more difficult.  I am just uncomfortable and wake up multiple times to go the the bathroom and just naturally I wake up to try and get comfy again.  I am very much a belly sleeper and I worry how I'll handle it with a huge belly. All the mothers out there are like "ohhhh she has no idea what's coming!" and I DONT! I thought I had a few more weeks of bliss before sleeping was impossible.  Baby you may be trying to kill me but we love you soo much already.

14 Weeks!
