A fresh start

Happy New Year! a little late =)
Well it took a while...6 weeks of solid nausea! but i think the tide is ebbing. I have a little more energy and feel better. And though still get queasy 2-3 times a day, it usually subsides with a little snack. I'm 12 weeks along and within a few days time, will welcome my 2nd trimester!
The most dramatic development this week: reflexes. Your baby's fingers will soon begin to open and close, toes will curl, eye muscles will clench, and mouth will make sucking movements. In fact, if you prod your abdomen, your baby will squirm in response, although you won't be able to feel it yet. Nerve cells are multiplying rapidly, and in your baby's brain, synapses are forming furiously. Eyes have moved from the sides to the front of baby's head, and ears are right where they should be. From crown to rump, your baby-to-be is just over 2 inches long (about the size of a lime) and weighs half an ounce.

We've been up to a lot with Christmas, a Colorado Wedding and Isaac's 2nd Birthday! All exciting details and interesting photos to come! But for now, I leave you with this thought for the day...

“When this New Year in time shall end
Let it be said I’ve played the friend,
Have lived and loved and labored here,
And made of it a happy year.”
