16 Weeks - I know, I know :)

So I meant to post this after the Dr's appt on Friday so I had exciting news to tell you but we met with a photographer I am doing a special project with and then got busy with the weekend.  We are excited to be getting closer to that 20 wk mark but can't believe it's almost halfway over.  We have started baby shopping and are getting very excited about all the supplies.

A little teaser pic from our 16wk session

Baby is measuring at the size of an Avocado this week!   

"Watch what you say...tiny bones forming in baby's ears mean she can now pick up your voice. A few more minuscule changes: Eyebrows, lashes, and hair are starting to fill in, and taste buds are forming."

How far along? 16 weeks and 9 days today.

Maternity clothes? Officially in maternity clothes now, I can still fit into my jeans but they just cut into my tummy too much. 

Stretch marks? None yet, fingers crossed!

Sleep? The Sciatic pain has gotten much better so sleeping has gotten easier, still some tossing and turning from trying to keep off my tummy.

Best moment this week? 16wk Dr's appt and hearing the little one's strong heartbeat again!

Food cravings: Nothing big this week, my Chiro said I needed to up my protein intake so the Luna protein bars have been my go-to snack but not what I crave.

Movement? Still nothing, I have been told this happens on avg. at the 20th week but I am getting anxious.

What I miss? All our friends and family in the mid-west, this week I have gotten more emotional and am really missing everyone!

What I'm looking forward to: The second week of August for our a/s ultrasound, we can't wait to see out little one again :)

Milestones: Morning sickness seems to be G-O-N-E, this is big big news!!
