The First Trimester...round 2

I am well out of the first trimester, but am I going to try oh so hard to be as consistent with this baby and pregnancy as I was with Cole!!

Things seem to be going the exact same as they did with my first pregnancy.  I was nauseous mostly during weeks 6-8, exhausted early in the pregnancy, no super weird cravings...well maybe french fries. But that's not weird.  I think I just say "YES" a little easier than in a non-pregnant circumstance.

It's stinkin' hot here, but still trying to walk or do workout videos. Shawn T's T25 is my current favorite.  I also consider painting a workout, which I seem to be doing way more than I should around here...

Cole is super sweet saying, "Mommy, Daddy, Cole, Baby" all the time, even in his crib before he falls asleep. He seems overly confident that the baby is a "BOY!!!!" He loves to pat my belly and give it kisses, and he has finally stopped touching other peoples' bellies and saying "baby!" ... haha!!

8 weeks and 12 weeks!

7 and 9 weeks pregnant

11 and 13 weeks pregnant

TOMORROW WE FIND OUT THE GENDER!!! EEEEEKK!!!! So excited! 

Couples' Retreat: Port Aransas

This past weekend we were able to sneak away from parenting for a long weekend and meet up with our friends in Port Aransas.  We had the best time...so many laughs, late nights, cheetoes and oreos... I am so thankful we were able to all get away! This was our 5th beach trip with the Sanders, and we were super excited that newlyweds Chris and Emily could join us this year!

Rachel caught this umbrella in midair as the wind swept it away. So impressive.

Love love love these friends!

Happy almost 5 year anniversary to us!

I ate every bite of this. 

The guys caught lots of fish this weekend! The girls caught none.

Pardon the bare baby belly.  Pregnancy + wet bathing suits = awful itchy rashes. My skin was so happy!!

Tom.  HAHAHA!!

Florida Beach Trip

This year, the Heinemann family packed up and went to Ft. Walton Beach in Florida for a long weekend. We flew to Dallas and met up with Grant and family, and then took a delayed and late night flight to Florida. 

 

We didn't land until 11 pm...Cole of course stayed up the whole time!!! He finally went to bed at midnight when we got to the condo. Thankfully, he was a happy clam the next day. :)

 The storm that delayed all the flights the day before left the ocean super yucky... pea soup-ish.  But we swam anyway. The guys all had pocket-fulls of seaweed slush every time they got out of the water.  

The sand was gorgeous. Cole wasn't a huge fan of touching the sand, 

but was content playing once he had a seat or squat. 

 The pool was a huge hit.

 The condo was super nice and the boys played like champs. They never slowed down. 

 The water improved slightly each day. Here is my 15 week belly bump...hehe!

 These boys LOVE their Doc and GPegs.  They are so blessed!!! 

While Cole didn't fall asleep on a midnight flight, he did during the flight home at 1pm..haha!!! And stayed asleep through baggage claim.  Crazy kid.
