14 weeks, 2 days! Second Trimester!!

I am officially in the second trimester now! Big things are happening! For instance, hair color and self tanner! This makes me happy, happy, happy! Oh, AND the last big thing is that my bump is sprouting out nicely as each day passes. I haven't woken up to and WOAH BELLY yet, but I think it's getting close. This week I have noticed a little lower back aching and restless nights. I am still sleeping but I am waking up more often to readjust and get comfortable again. I'm sure the worst is yet to come. Jacob suggested that we buy the big pregnancy pillow but it is so huge. I think I will try him as my body pillow for a while. (Wonder how he will like that?!) 

I think I am still a little shocked that we are going to see (hopefully) the gender of the baby in less than 2 weeks. I am so excited! I am nervous the whole full bladder thing while they prob around on me! Little lemon better not be stubborn! Speaking of lemons, that's the size of the baby this week. He/she can now make more fluid movements instead of jerks. It's also developing the roof of it's mouth and growing a coating of hair to keep it warm. (how cute!). I read somewhere that this week is when it can start sucking its thumb! Baby Long is already amazing me!

Here are our 14 week pictures followed by the survey =)
