You put the Lime in the coconut.........

12 weeks
Our baby is the size of a lime
Which I guess makes me feel a little better that I'm already showing at 12 weeks - scared of what I'll look like at 38 weeks. But I haven't gained one pound yet - so that is good I guess. I'm sure they'll be rolling in before I know it (and can stop it). :-)

You look great! I was showing at 12 weeks and in some maternity clothes. I am 19 weeks and have gained only 11 lbs total. I know you will do great! : ) Are you reading some good books? Tell me if you find a good one so I can go and get it! : )

Jenna said...

Aww Kelly! Don't feel bad, I am showing too! You look adorable!

Jacquie said...

Cute little belly, Kelly! It's surprising how big a lime can look on the outside! Ha!

Can't wait to see your maternity outfits.

You look great! Do you know about bella bands? I wore them all the time when I was in that in between stage of gaining weight but not big enough for maternity clothes.

You look great! I am so excited for you!

Trina said...

Aww, you're such a cute preggo!

I gained 40 lbs with my first. I was scared to death the second time around to get that big again so I watched what I ate and only gained 30 lbs.

It still took alot of work but thanks to Weight Watchers and breastfeeding, I finally got it off!

Scrapper Mom said...

Awwww....that's awesome. You look precious. I couldn't stop reading my "what to expect" book when I was pregnant. I was so anxious to know just exactly how big my babies were at the time I was too. It's so exciting.

Kelly,
You look so beautiful!! You have such an exuberance in your face. I remember being 12 weeks along, and just the feeling of thankfulness and joy was so hard to express, but it shows all over you ~~ just all over you!!

Stacy said...

You look great!!

NurseMom said...

Lovely coconut!

It seriously already seems like FOREVER ago that Kaleb was a lime!!! Looking great!!!

Candy said...

You look adorable!!! At my PEP (play,eat&pray) meeting tonight I brought you up because one of the gals is struggling with the fact that she can't get pregnant. I told her your story!!! The funny thing is that two other girls read your blog too! :)

TriciaNae said...

Oh Kelly...look how cute you are!! I'm still so excited for y'all. And...my sister started to show way before she ever gained a pound.

Fran said...

I just gave you a hug! :)

Billie said...

You look stunning! And from one "waiting Momma" who finally got her blessings to another...cherish EVERY moment...every pound...every stretch mark...every bathroom stop. I learned thru the loss of my 3 babies before my 1st born (and one after) that so many women just get pregnant. Then their feet hurt, their back hurts, they hate feeling like this, thier belly will never be the same. But I cherished my aching toes...my curled up back, my nausea...my badges of honor I call my stretch marks. Because those things meant LIFE was inside of me! She was just reminding me she was there and anxious to meet me. As yours is anxious to meet you! So you just keep glowing and growing girl!

SO adorable.

Jennifer said...

I just read the news--I am SO late to the party!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

Alyce said...

You look beautiful! When I was pregnant the first time, I just couldn't wait to get those maternity clothes on...they make such cute ones. I was showing by 12weeks and was able to wear some. By the second pregnancy, I wanted the maternity clothes more for comfort,not cuteness. And that time..showing at 8 weeks!!!

Alison said...

This is one of the best pictures here on your blog! It is exciting to see how the Lord is blessing you.

Jennifer said...

You are just adorable pregnant Kelly! Congrats again!

Megan L Hutchings said...

All of your friends in TN are so happy for you and your little lime ;)! I love the pajama pants!!!

Mandy said...

That was one of my favorite things when I was pregnant...the food comparison!! I got an email each week that compared the baby to a food. I kept thinking they would run out of foods to compare to, but they never did!! You look great!!!

pinkmommy said...

You look great. And I can't wait to see you when you are as big as me! (Which is big. Very big.)

"J" said...

Rhonda said...

You look great!! Love the photo!! Try the bella band, I wore it for the first time yesterday when my pants finally did not fit. Seeing the baby bump grow is the best!

Wear that belly proud girl, you've earned it. It's one of the best times of life. Praying for baby H to continue to grow and develop. What a blessing to see H poking out!!

Lauren said...

You look adorable! I hope that you're feeling well. Isn't it amazing that what is now the size of a fruit you'll take to kindergarten some day?!

WOW!! We love reading your site! Come and visit us sometime...we have given you an award on our site that we think that you are so deserving of!

Heather said...

You look so cute..fun pic with the lime. Hope you guys have a Happy 4th!!

K said...

You look great!! I'm just 3 weeks behind you in pregnancy!

Jackie said...

Kelly:

I wanted to stop by and say hi...I just recently found you, and I am literally in tears as I read your story. Congrats on the precious little one on the way!! God is so good. You have given me hope...we do have one child already, but are experiencing secondary infertility now, and have been trying for our second for over a year. Sometimes it is a struggle, because things are not working according to MY plan, but in reading your story, I'm reminded again that God has perfect timing. No matter that the "evidence" and tests say that I cannot get pregnant again, I know that He is greater.

You are so adorable, and you look absolutely fantastic! I'll be back to follow along as Baby progresses. :)

CAMoore said...

It's funny b/c you really aren't "showing" yet. But I do remember thinking back when I was 12 weeks, that I was showing then too. You look great girl!

Just wait until your belly is so big you have a hard time rolling over at night! (thats me) haha!

Unknown said...

Kelly,

You don't know me but I linked over to your blog from Ashley Honea's blog. I have been praying for you a baby and was SO overjoyed to read that you are expecting!!! That's an adorable little baby bump you are sporting! I am 14 weeks pregnant and am definitely showing so don't feel bad. A lot of it is bloating so don't worry - it doesn't mean that you'll be enormous! That's one precious lime!! Congratulations!

P.S. If you haven't picked up The Girlfriend's Guide to Pregnancy, you totally should. It's light-hearted and hilarious. Read it with Scott :) You'll both get a laugh.

Lindsey said...

How cute are you?!!! You are glowing and I am truly so excited for you and your family! What an answered prayer:)
