16 Weeks

How far along? 16 weeks

Size of baby? avocado, 4.5 inches long, 5 oz

How I'm changing? Starting to notice the bump taking shape now. I've been having cramps and stretching pains for a few weeks now, and I'm starting to see WHY! Baby is making room.

Activity level? Still enjoying my walking! Feeling more energy and stamina every day. Thank goodness because I felt like such a zombie for so long.

What I'm eating? Um, what am I not eating? That's a better question at this point. I am way hungrier than I have been maybe my whole life. I was never much of a snacker before, but now I feel like I'm eating something all day long. I've recently discovered Outshine coconut water popsicles, and I'm obsessed with those at the moment.

What I'm not eating? Still not liking broccoli or seafood, so I guess there are some things I turn down.
How I'm sleeping? Like a champ.

Best moment of the week? We had a 3d/4d ultrasound today and found out Baby Houston is a GIRL!!!!!!!!! We are so freaking excited! A sweet little girl. She was dancing throughout the ultrasound and moving those hips. She has what the lady called "WOAH, look at that" legs. They were super long, like a frog. Obviously not from me, as I stand high and mighty at 5'3". We didn't get a great shot of little lady's face because she kept putting her hands in front of it. She wasn't ready for her close up just yet. In any event, I think I'm on cloud 9 and won't be very productive today. :) Here's to 16 weeks!
