A month and a half..

Wow!  I cannot believe it has been so long since my last post - I definitely am not a good blogger - opps!  But here I am, finally so let's see what has been going on..

I am now almost 14 weeks pregnant.. 13wks5days to be exact, and the baby is doing wonderful as of the last appointment.. he/she is really starting to look like a real baby now and has a nice strong heartbeat!! 

Here is the ultrasound picture from 11wks4days:
My belly is starting to show and I definitely prefer maternity clothes or very loose fitting clothes rather than my favorite jeans.. Although I say I am showing, I don't think others can notice it, unless they know about the pregnancy - to the outsider, I probably just look obese - but that's ok.. soon, the world will notice.

Kate is doing wonderful and getting excited about how she'll be able to start buying things for her baby soon.. she cannot wait to find out if she is having a daughter or son and only several more weeks until we can find out!!   Do you have a guess on what the baby is??!!  I always tend to call the baby a "him", but I really do think it is going to be a beautiful little girl.. soon we'll know for sure!

Nain is doing as well as expected - a few weeks ago he was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer - a very aggressive cancer - he just started treatment this week and we're all praying, wishing and hoping for the best possible outcome - he is an amazing man and is going to be an even more amazing daddy!  I am hoping the baby gives him the motivation he needs to push forward and beat the odds!

Me.. I have been ok.. the morning sickness is subsiding a bit but I've been getting weak lately and have had some shortness of breathe still, I get full after 2-3 bites and I am super lazy and still emotional as ever.. I also have some lower pelvic pain.. not cramping, but just pressure. I remember having it later on with my pregnancies, but never this early on, but the doctor did say my uterus is very forward so I am sure that has to do with it.  I have also been trying to stay relaxed and stressed free, but evertything going on with Nain is bothering me more than I should let it.. I'd be lying if I said I didn't worry,  but that's only because I love them both so much and I so badly want them to be best little happy family ever.. and it hurts so much to know how they have to go through right now, and how it is taking away from the happiness of their soon-to-be-parenthoodness :(  But I know they're both strong people and they've both already beat so many odds, what's one more - if anyone can do it, he can!!

Welll, that's all I have for now, please keep us in your prayers!  And I will try to be much better and update more soon!
