Two weeks later we headed to San Antonio for the Barteau-Zito wedding. We stayed at the J.W. Marriott Hill Country Resort which was super nice and relaxing. I spent Saturday by the pool while Gordon played golf with some of his buddies. There's nothing better than reading a good book by the pool!
We had our first doctors appointment that following Monday. We didn't actually see the doctor that day but I did have an ultrasound to find out exactly how far along in the pregnancy I was. The baby's heart rate was 140 and it measured 7 weeks 1 day making my due date June 10, 2012. It's such a relief to see that little flash of a heartbeat on the screen! If you know me you know I worry far TOO much so having this day finally come was good for us all. Here's a picture of our little sweet pea.
Next up was Gordon's 30th birthday. His first surprise of the day was his new Green EGG grill. We'd heard great things about them so I knew it would be a perfect gift for such a special birthday year. The next surprise was that night. His parents and I planned a surprise party at one of our favorite Mexican restaurants. He was SHOCKED and couldn't believe his parents were in town all the way from Texarkana. We had a great night with some of our close friends and family.

16 weeks in Texarkana for Christmas |
I was 12 weeks pregnant during Thanksgiving weekend. I still can't believe how fast the first trimester flew by! Luckily, I felt great with only a little nausea after breakfast. After watching so many of my friends suffer from morning sickness I feel extra blessed to have breezed right through the first 12 weeks.
Up next....the gender reveal party!!!
