13 weeks

So I stopped posting for a bit to make sure I didn't spill the beans. Most everyone knows by now that yes I am expecting a baby in mid-November! Which leads to the other reason I have been slacking off on this blog - I have been rather nauseous thanks to the morning sickness. I had a hard time being upright at the computer for long periods of time and felt it would be better on me if I limited my computer time. David took a picture of me at 11 weeks. He claims there is a small belly bump there but it is rather difficult to see.

I really haven't had cravings. Certain things sit better than others. Carbs are soooo good right now. Mashed potatoes, french fries, oatmeal, tortilla chips, etc. If nothing else sounds good, I can usually eat those. Cheese sticks are my new go-to snack - I cannot get enough cheese. We had an ultrasound at 10 weeks and apparently Baby Klein is a finger sucker already!
I have been trying to work on crochet projects. Some days were obviously better than others but I did manage to finish the pink ruffled blanket for my friend who just had her baby girl yesterday. It is stroller sized - slightly longer than wide so it tucks easily into the carseat/stroller. Plus I had left over yarn so I made some pacifier/toy leashes as well. She was very thrilled with her gifts once they arrived.

I am hard at work on a shawl for a lovely lady in my ward. The building is always FREEZING during church so everyone tends to wear jackets, bring shawls, etc. There is even a stash of blankets in the Relief Society room for use.
Hopefully, I will have more good days than bad now and will be able to get back to weekly updates on the blog. In addition to finishing all the crochet projects I have to do!
