Week 16: Better Late Than Never

Sorry there's no cute little graphic on week 16, but it wasn't fun trying to sketch an avocado. Yep! Baby Black is the size of an avocado, or about the size of an open hand!!! He or she is growing like crazy... kinda like my appetite. :)

I officially look semi-pregnant and not just like I gained weight. This make me a little more confident in myself rather than trying to hide my lumps, bumps, and rolls. I went and tried on maternity pants... I'm not there yet, but I know I will soon be. I'm debating on whether or not I'm looking forward to that portion of pregnancy. So far, it's no, but one day, I'm certain I'll be more than happy to don the full elastic belly and set out on my way.

Here's this week's update. Week 17 is coming soon!!!

Week: 16

Weight Gain: 7 lbs or so

Maternity Clothes: Not yet!

Sleep: Better... lots of tossing and turning and getting hotter than normal.

Best Moment this Week: Finally looking pregnant! 

Cravings: Chips and Green Onion Dip

Turn-offs: Pasta sauce... still pasta sauce.

Gender: Still a surprise (but the Chinese Birth Calendar and wedding ring test both report girl!)

Happy or Moody: Moody... this week, I've been rather moody.

Looking Forward to: Hearing sweetpea's heartbeat on September 27! Only 3 days!!!
