Journey of Baby Gunn - 2nd Trimester

Ah FINALLY 2nd Trimester. At 13 weeks baking and cooking were still not that exciting but energy level started to finally pick up a little.

Cravings went from fresh veggies, yogurt and grilled cheese into green olives, applesauce and fresh cherry tomatoes from our garden in weeks 14-16. Week 17-19 cravings for peaches, apple juice and pancakes took over.


June 17th was Father's Day and Kevin received a board back book called "I Know My Daddy Loves Me" and a picture frame that says "Daddy and Me". In the book it talks about I know my daddy loves me because he makes me pancakes. Heidi loved this part because pancakes are Kevin's speciality in the kitchen. Even when he was 2 or 3 and tried to make them for his mom mixing them on the kitchen floor with yummy ingredients like ketchup included. He has since, with lots of practice, perfected them and they are a highly requested item from Heidi.

When we first found out we were expecting we knew our lease for our townhome would be coming up for renewal in mid September. While it seemed like a perfect time to move before winter came and locate ourselves closer to Kevin's new job it felt stressful at the same time. Heidi would be 5-6 months pregnant and unable to lift much as well as have the energy to clean and pack. With lots to consider we decided mid July that in September we will sign another 12 month lease and remain in our townhome. It does mean an hour commute each way for Kevin but it also means the security and company of our wonderful community of neighbors and a great price on the space we occupy.

Kevin spent two days moving Heidi's Tastefully Simple office from the third floor of our townhome to the basement. Then in return moving all the generously given baby items that were being stored in the basement to the third floor bedroom for a nursery.

We are looking forward to Wednesday August 1st for our 20 week Ultra Sound. Boy or Girl?????
