17 weeks!

Yes, I do realize I have been super bad about taking weekly pictures of myself with this pregnancy :). I did a much better job with Saylor, but life is just busier these days. I am hoping to take one this week or next, before I get half way through. I have felt good this week, just more tired than usual. Hosting events while preg is a bit more taxing! I am sleeping good, with the exception of crazy dreams, and feel pretty good most of the day. Headaches still come and go quite a bit, but my doc has me taking excedrin migraine, which really helps. 

Two weeks from today we find out what we are having. I am thinking girl... hubs is thinking boy. We are having a gender reveal cake at Saylor's 1st birthday party (3 days after we find out), so I am excited about that. I am also wondering how in the world I am going to keep it a secret for 3 days! We have a boy name we are pretty set on, and a long list of girl names we are discussing. We decided to put that topic to rest until we find out what we are having :).
