Happy New Year! 16 Weeks Prego!

Well, the season is officially over. Time to get back to reality. But we did have a fun vacation together this year. We spent New Year's Eve with Jake's family and played games. New Year's Day we went and saw yet another movie..this time without Lyd's. We saw Sherlock Holmes with our friends the Davies'. It was a really good movie. Very entertaining. Then we spent the past couple days hanging out with Lydia's best friends Lizzy and Will. Good times!

I can't believe I am 16 weeks pregnant. I think I've gained about 12-15 pounds so far. I haven't stepped on the scale for a few weeks for fear that I've gained 20-25. I think I might gain more than 55 this time, which is what I gained with Lydia. Crazy, I know.

(and the first I've taken this pregnancy)!
It's amazing how fast its gone by, especially since I've been sick the past 10 weeks. I starting the nausea and throwing up at 6 weeks and it's finally coming to a close this week. I'm feeling much better in that dept. Although, I think my body has traded the nausea for headaches. I've had either a dull or pounding headache every day for the past 8-9 days. It sucks. But hey, you won't hear me complaining. I'm grateful for every pain I feel. It just means that there's a healthy baby in there growing like a weed.

My next dr appt is this week and then we'll schedule the US to determine the sex of the baby. We're so excited. Jake wants a girl and when I think about it, I don't really care. It'd be nice to have a boy so it would take the pressure off of getting that boy that Jake always wanted. But then again, it would be fun to have two little girls together.

We shall see.

You are looking beautiful and there is no way you have gained that much weight! The cool thing is you will just loose it. You have good self discipline!
