12 weeks

Whew! I can't believe we are already at 12 weeks! Soon we will be in the second trimester, it has gone fast already, I can't imagine how it will feel once we are just weeks away from meeting baby caswell!

How I am Feeling:
I still feel really good. I get winded easier, so I have stop and take breaks more frequent but I still haven't gotten sick, minus a few headaches when I didn't eat on a more consistent schedule.

Sleep:
Still the same, trying to find that comfortable position is a bit harder.

Cravings:
Food in general is my craving haha I have been trying to keep myself in check so that I don't go overboard, but I do allow myself some treats.  I am eating on a regular basis, and feel like I am a bottomless pit.

Best Moment of the Week:
I started out week 12 in Chicago.  We got up on saturday and decided we wanted to go to breakfast at Yolk, which my sister in law Jill had recommended, and that we wanted to go on an architectural boat cruise on the river.  Our concierge helped us book the boat, and then we headed out to walk up to Yolk.  It was a bit of a walk, and a bit of a wait, but it was so worth it! It was delicious!

After breakfast we headed to the boat tour.  We spent an hour going up and down the river learning about the architecture, it was really cool! We got to see parts of Chicago that we would have never seen on foot.  But boy, was it hot!

After the boat cruise, we found somewhere to cool off and grab something to eat and then we hit up The Magnificent Mile, which is a ton of shopping! After that we headed back to the hotel to rest before we went to dinner.  We decided to go eat at The Village which is the oldest Italian Restaurant in Chicago.  The food was amazing, I had chicken alfredo!

On sunday, we got up to hit a few things before we needed to drive back to Minnesota.  We went to get Chicago's famous popcorn.

 We also tried the best thin crust pizza according to Oprah. I love thin crust, but this wasn't really my favorite, but glad that we tried it!

After this, we went to pack up the car and head home! It was a great trip, and super fun to get to explore Chicago with some of my favorite ladies!

The rest of the week was work, and getting ready for mine and Tavid's anniversary trip to Maryland! That will be for the next update, but first on Friday we got to celebrate my cousin Kallie's wedding to her hubby Tyler! They got married in January in Hawaii, and this was their reception! It was luau themed, and it was hot! But it was great to see family and to see some old friends!

 Me with Sheena!

My love and I

We didn't get to stay too long, because we had an early flight out in the morning to Maryland. Stay tuned! :)
