hockey + pregnant

i can't really decide what to start with here. i'm guessing i am the only one that cares about my hockey story, so i suppose i will spare you and start with the pregnancy, that way you can skip to the end if you don't want to read the rest. this is going to be a long one, you've been warned.

so, wahoo! i am 11 weeks pregnant! i haven't taken my 11 week picture yet because my husband is a tax accountant and it's april 4th. stay tuned for that.

we found out on valentine's day (which is also kameron's birthday) and we are pretty jazzed about it. i will try to update this weekly with a picture, but i can't make any promises. also, i know the chalkboard thing is becoming overdone but i have wanted to do it for a while, so deal with it. inspired by the fantastic jessica at little baby garvin. 

due date: late october. that's all you get because due dates are just a little glimmer of hope that your baby should come "around that time." <---straight from the mouth of my doctor (except she gave me an actual date)

how far along: 10 weeks in that picture up there. 11 in real life.

weight gain & stretch marks?: i think i have actually lost about a pound. no stretch marks.

best moment this week: talking nurseries

worst moment this week: feeling like my head might actually fall off. pregnancy headaches are no joke.

miss anything?: sushi, beer, and sleeping through the night. our warm weather "thing" is going to breweries and hanging out on the patio, and that's only half as fun when you can't drink the beer.

symptoms & movement: headaches, random waves of nausea, and fatigue. no movement yet!

cravings & aversions: cravings depend on the day, but i had a weird one for christmas tree cakes the other day. luckily they make them in easter versions. as for aversions, the sight/smell/mention of raw meat.

sex of the baby: we aren't finding out. 

mood: whoaaa baby. i am the definition of mood swings right now. sorry kameron. 

looking forward to: my next appointment, my mama coming to visit, and summer.

on to the next topic: how awesome my husband is/how much i am obsessed with hockey. 

kameron promised me we could go to one more hockey game before the season ended. he went into work on a saturday (see above: tax accountant) and texted me to meet him downtown later. i knew we were going to a game but i figured we were sitting in the cheap seats, because we always do. he told me on the way that we were sitting in the third row behind the avs bench and i about lost it. i had never sat that close before. when we got to the pepsi center, we discovered that there is no row 1 or 2 behind the bench- row 3 is the closest. i could have cried. the game was great and by winning it, the avalanche secured their spot in the playoffs. patrick roy also tossed the first goal puck of the game to me. and i know i am probably the only person who cares about this so i will just leave you with some pictures:

you'll notice that picture is blurry because i am shaking so hard.

i'm not even mad he was blocking my view. 

and i also have to share this because i laugh every time i look at these pictures. i guess we were on tv a few times and two of my coworkers texted me these pictures. i swear to you, i was having a blast. apparently i am an inherently mean looking person. or as my friends put it, i have "resting bitchface." either way, i promise i am typically friendly :)

see you soon, i hope

xoxo,
