Counting down the weeks....

This week was a good one! Lots seemed to have gone on.  Monday we were off for MLK day, so that was nice. Even though I was off, the week still seemed to drag at work. Wednesday was another day of school, loving it.  A lot to do, in the next 6 weeks, but that will keep me busy, so time will go by fast :) 
Thursday was a busy day at work, and then we had our 16wk doc appointment at night.  That went good, as usual.  I lost 2lbs, but the doc said that was ok at this stage.  The heartbeat was still strong in the 160's he said.  The baby has moved up more, which I can tell  where the harder spots and softer.  I haven't really started to show yet, just a little plump.  The major growth will be happening in the next 4 weeks.  I can already tell, since Thursday I've been having a constant dull stretching/pulling pain.  That's been fun! :)  The baby is only the size of an avocado this week, so still small, yet almost fully formed.  Just amazing!!  We have our next appointment set for Feb 21st.  We get to find out the sex then, I CAN'T WAIT!!!! And I will have to wait until the next day, the 22nd, to find out.  I agreed to this craziness, and said that my BFF, could get the info from the doc, on a piece of paper, and then she is going to bake a cake, and the filling inside is either going to be blue or pink.  Some of our friends will come, and we will enjoy the unveiling together.  :) I really can't wait for that!! :) 
Friday we got some snow, and let me specify, SOME!! People of course, freak, and don't know how to drive.  Accidents were all over and travel times were just nuts, I left the house, intending to go to work, but when I was on the road, for an hour, and barely got as far as what normally 10-15mins would, I turned around and headed back home.
Today was a busy day, we had an early soccer game for our daughter, and then we had dentist appointments.  I then took my daughter shopping for her bday, at the outlet mall and then to another.  I bought some baby clothes for the baby, from Carter's.  I am bad, I know, but hard to resist!! :)  Needless to say, I am pooped out!!  All that running around, it is nice to be able to relax for the night.  I hope I can make it through a movie tonight, but I fear that sleep may get the best of me. 
I am soooo looking forward to the next 4 weeks.  The doc also asked me if I had felt the baby move yet, I felt some fluttering, but I wasn't sure, if it was anything or just gas. LOL  He said it may have been the baby, but I didn't want to get too excited.  So I look forward to being able to tell more and more, when it is the baby. :) So amazing!
