4 months pregnant!

Well, as of yesterday I am 16 weeks pregnant. As much as it feels that it is dragging on, at the same time it is flying by! I was going to wait to post my first pregnant pics until we found out what it was, but I snapped one of Karly chatting with "it" and decided it was too sweet to not pass on. I really didn't think I was showing, and my scale hasn't gone up much but my belly is definitely rounder and harder than it was even just a few weeks ago. I was hoping to hold out another month, but I am guessing the belly is here to stay for awhile! Now just have to hope my regular pants will hang in there with me for a few more weeks! Other than my impending fatty doom I am feeling much better. They shouldn't tell you at 12 weeks things are better...really its 14 or 15 before you are human again. Chris and I are getting a little closer to agreeing on names. Part of me really wants a girl because I have already done a girl and the stuff is just so much cuter! The other part thinks a boy would be a neat change. Plus, I don't know how much more pink I can handle! Karly and Chris battle with the belly...Chris: "make daddy proud and grow a weiner!" Karly: "please, pretty please be a girl" and we do this atleast once a day! Poor baby isn't even here and is already getting bossed around.

Here's a picture of Karly telling the baby how much she loves her, encouraging her to be a girl, and giving her some Christmas kisses!

How Cute! Oh Gosh, you are tiny... my tummy is getting so big already and there is no stopping it. It is so close to time to find out, I bet you are getting anxious :)

This made me chuckle because yes you feel better at the 14-week-ish mark. But then slowing you go downhill again around the 24-week mark I think it is because you start to be huge and uncomfortable. Guess that really wasn't nice encouragement for me to give, sorry. You are doing AWESOME with the weight though!!! I had already gained about 10 or 12 pounds at that point I think... and ended up at 52 on delivery day. In hindsight that was miserable. I plan on making #2 not gain so much. LOL I can't wait to find out what you are having!! Only a couple more weeks!
