A Little Late!

Well, I am prety late on updating this week since I am already almost 17 weeks, but here is the scoop for the 16th week!

Last Sunday we celebrated Melanie's baby shower for little Cole. It was a sports theme and we were all to wear football gear. After looking at the pictures taken, I will NOT be wearing my pre-pregnancy 49ers sweatshirt EVER again. LOL. It was adorable, very intimate, and fun! Can't wait for little man's arrival! He definitely has some cute clothing to sport and an extra cute sign that Auntie Kaila hand-made to hang in his room! :) All the pictures are on my phone so I need to upload them still.

{Insert Pictures}

Monday, Jeff and I found out the sex!! We aren't telling anyone until Christmas, but it was so fun finding out!! Gonna be a great Christmas present for our families. Jeff finally got to see our little one on the big screen in 3-D; baby was moving all around being all cute and squirmy lol!! A couple times, the baby even threw up hand signs like "peace" and "loser" lol!! It was super cute! I still need to upload the pictures from the CD onto my computer, so I will input them ASAP.

"Loser" LOL!!

Our little man...sorry it's sideways!


Wednesday I had a quick check up with Dr. Dave. Everything is going well and I was able to return to work! I am so glad to be back to work--bed rest is NOT for me, however, obviously I will do whatever I need to do. But for now, I am happy to be back to work!

I have been feeling the baby a little here and there, but still waiting on the first actual kicks and punches that I can feel! Looking forward to it!

I have one more week of work and then am off for Winter Break, so yippee! We/I (depending on Jeff's work) are/am going to visit my dad next weekend, and then are spending Christmas day with my mom's side of the family. Should be very fun. I hope Jeff gets to go to my dads with me.

In other news, I have begun to purchase a few different styles, brands, etc of cloth diapers to try. I don't need a lecture, I have done my research. I know that it may not be for me, but I want to try it. I belong to many groups on Facebook and most of them say the way to go is to start after the baby is a month or two old so you don't get discouraged as easily changing a bazillion diapers a day. Most people don't realize that nowadays cloth diapering doesn't have to entail the old school cloth and safety pins...They have made diapers that work exactly like a disposable and are easy to clean and use. Anyway, I just want to try it, and after I showed Jeff how easy it is, and bought a diaper sprayer (connects to your toilet so you can spray off the poopies before washing) he was game to try it out. It's expensive to start out, but saves a lot of money in the long run, so we shall see. I may even just do it at home and use disposables when we are out...who knows!

Anywho, here is the update on me!
Weeks: 16w 5d
Cravings: nothing really...weird
Mood: Emotional/Sensitive
Symptoms: Round ligament pain at times...sore boobies
Movement: sparatic, very light tapping here and there.
