16 & A Half Weeks

So I'm almost 17 weeks pregnant and it feels so surreal sometimes. It's feeling more and more real as my tummy gets bigger and bigger. I think I felt the curbug kick me today. I was laying in bed and it felt like a little popcorn popped in my tummy. It could've been a gas bubble or something but this felt different. Although it hasn't happened again so I can't be certain...

This week little curbug is the size of an avocado. Can you believe that? It's incredible. I was thinking the other day about a project I'm working on. It's a city hall that's being built. I was looking at the construction progress thinking "Heavenly Father is making a little life in my tummy faster than this measely building is going up!" It really is an amazing process, one that I feel so blessed and priveledged to be a part of. I want to meet this little guy or gal so badly! (I think it's a girl for the record, but we'll see!)

Here's the requisite belly shot:


On another note, it's been snowing here like crazy! The other morning Cur was driving me to my bus stop and we were trying to guess the temperature outside because it felt so cold. I looked it up on my phone and it was zero degrees. That's right, I said ZERO DEGREES! Needless to say, we've been bundling up. I can't wait to enjoy some good 'ole Arizona weather. Who needs a white Christmas anyway? Not me.

same EXACT thing that happened to me the first time I felt him kick.

It was definitely a kick! That's so exciting! It won't be long before they kick like crazy. great explanation of what it felt like...couldn't have described it better...gas bubble but really low.
