16 Weeks Pregnant

So its been a busy few weeks, Kevin got lasik eye surgery so it was hard living not only my life but also his, I actually went to some of his classes to help him read the board. Thankfully after a week his eyes were all better and things were back to normal. The next week we drove to Utah to attend my niece, Ella’s, baptism. It was so good to see Rachel and Sami again, but a bigger bonus was that my mama flew to Utah the same day! And then on top of that I was able to see my Lewis grandparents! It was so very nice! Kevin and I were hoping that Rachel would also have her baby a day early so we could see her. But it just wasn’t right. Fortunantly Rachel did have her sweet baby that next Tuesday! Welcome to the world sweet Lilly!

So Wonderful day! I had my third doctor’s appointment on tuesday, Things went well, I measured pretty big actually. and gain a few pounds too, and you can tell my, I feel like my belly is getting huge!  I didn’t think I was supposed to start showing until I was around 20 weeks, but no, lets just say I wear alot of sweat pants!



Ohe thing I have been wanting to tell you all so badly is that I believed that I could actually feel the baby moving. but i just couldnt because I didnt want you all to think I was crazy. But there was no way on earth that what I was feeling was just gas. it felt so very different. So I asked my docter if I was just crazy. he said no, I am thin enough to feel it move and said that he was positive I had.

So Hooray!!! I have been feeling this kid move quite a bit, it kinda just feels like a ball rolling around, but hey. its a baby, and thats cool.





 So this week my baby is the size of a Avacado- 5 inches and about 5 oz.

The picture below is of a 16 week old Fetus. (I think, at least thats what google told me) It looks kinda gross, but I hear this week it will start growing some fat and wont look as transparent.

I think the most exciting thing I realized about this appointment is that my next appointment, 3 weeks from now, is when we find out the Gender of the baby! Woo Hoo! I will finally be able to start decorating the sweet baby’s room!
