16 Weeks

Four months along already. Doesn't time fly? The babies are about the size of avocados.  There are about 4 1/2 inches long and weigh about 3 1/2 ounces. I can tell too, my bump is getting larger, not a cute bump yet. I just look fat now. Of course no one will tell me that. I am favoring looser, A line styles right now. I have less nausea, less mood swings but I am still tired most of time. I did have a few bouts of energy this weekend and was able to get some work done around the house.  With the help of the amazing Nicole I was able to start clearing out the third bedroom. I will be happy when we find out the sexes so I can start planning the nursery.

The babies are developing a lot this week.  The best part is that they can hear my voice now. Lucky for them I have a job where I talk all day. Studies have found that babies who are sung to while they are in the womb recognize the same tune when it's sung to them after they are born. What will I sing? Maybe some Prince? What do you suggest?

I should be looking forward to pregnancy glow, bigger boobs and longer hair and nails. That would be nice. Right now I have pregnancy break out.
