15 Weeks....

Flutter Bug

I finally felt the flutter of our little baby today for the 1st time.

I keep reading in the baby books and articles online that your baby will move and kick but you will barely feel it because the baby is still small. The flutters are supposed to feel like bubbles or butterflies in your tummy. I definitely felt the flutters and they felt like little kicks. It was crazy but AWESOME! My 16 week appointment is on Tuesday and we are hoping to find out the gender. Keeping my fingers crossed and praying that the baby is doing great.

Love,

This Belly is Growing

I am 14 weeks and will be 15 on Monday. I love seeing my belly grow. It's so amazing! I'm constantly starving for food. This baby is going to make me eat myself into a food coma. I am starting to get the cravings now. I love a large glass of milk in the morning and at night. I love drinking lemonade or limeaid. Yum! And I love eating lemons and limes as a snack. So I guess I am craving liquids more then solid foods. But believe me I am eating alot of food too. My belly is getting bigger, people are now noticing which is exciting but crazy.

My next appointment is on March 29th and we should have our 2nd ultra-sound. Maybe we will find out if we are having a little crazy boy or a sweet little girl, or the other way around :)

My plan this weekend while Jeremy is doing his Paramedic/Firefighter clinicals:

* Go grocery shopping

* Browse around Forever 21 for cute dresses and a belt that I can wear while pregnant

* Look around the Holycow Boutique in Pleasant Grove

* Maybe clean, if I feel like it

Spring Sky & Growing Tree's

I can feel that Spring is finally here. The sound of thunder and the bright flashes of lightning makes me happy.

I love to just sit by the window, listening and watching the clouds roll in, watching the lightning and hearing the thunder fill up a silent town. I took some photo's of the Spring Sky & the Growing Tree's coming out from hybernating and ready to bloom.

Loney trying to sleep during the thunder storm, until my camera flash startled him...

A Long Saturday

I love waking up early in the morning and starting my day, whether I am lying around or running around the house doing chores. I feel if I wake up early my day seems so much longer and I love that.

I sweeped up Loney's mound of fur he likes to leave around the house while watching "My Girl" on the tv. Such a pain when he shedds. But I love when it's all cleaned up. I then made Rice Pudding for lunch. My mom would make rice pudding for my sister and I all the time. So now that I have the recipe I always make it. It was super yummy and it will last me for about a week :)

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. 

Love,

These Dreams....

I have been having the weirdest pregnancy dreams lately. I wake up from each one thinking they were real and then I finally process that they weren't. Ugh... and by the time I wake up in the morning I can't remember any of them to write them down.

So strange.

On another note, my plan for this weekend was to do a Polaroid photo shoot when I found out you cannot buy Polaroid film unless you buy it online. Oh and the worst part of it, the film has doubled, even tripled in price. So for a pack of 2 cartridges of Polaroid film that processes 20 pictures will cost around $60 to $80 bucks. This idea is out!

I am saving up for a Blackbird TLR 35 mm.

This should be fun :)

The weather is beautiful outside. The sun is shinning and it's 41 degrees. I can't wait for Spring.

Love,

Kristin

The Wolf....

I am in love with the new Fever Ray song "The Wolf". She always amazes me with her volcals, lyrics and instruments. I love how eerie Fever Ray is but yet absolutely beautiful songs that make me feel like running through the woods all day.

Check out the new song:

"The Wolf" was written and performed for the movie "Red Riding Hood". The movie looks.... ok. All I care about is the new Fever Ray song and also her band performing in the movie. I've read that it's not true, but then I have read that it is true. I will be the judge of that.

Missing Polaroids

I miss taking Polaroid photo's. They were one of my favorite things to do. Polaroids always remind me of older 60's and 70's photoshots. Polaroids always give off a creepy and haunting feel to them.

That is my goal this weekend. I want to start polaroid photoshoots again.

Here are some polaroids I took years ago. They are so beautiful and haunting. I love them. Polaroids will always be a form of photography that I hold close to my heart.

Love,

Kristin

Is there really a little Peach size baby inside me?????

Baby at 8 weeks

It's crazy to know that the 1st trimester is almost over. I am so happy the nausea is gone. But my pants are starting to get tight already and I am really tired. I finally looked at these photo's all together and you can see a difference. It's pretty amazing! I can't help but think I'm just eating to much food and thats why I am bigger. I guess this little baby will definently feel real once I feel it kick. Jeremy and I heard the heartbeat on Monday the 28th of February. The doctor let us hear the strong thuds of the babies heart beat and then compared it's to mine. Mine was so mellow compared to the babies. It was really surreal!

Love Kristin
