Maternity Shopping with my Mama!

          Week 16 was great! I graduated, hung out with my parents and had friends from mesa stay with us for a few days! It was full of fun and laughter. Graduation was great and the little guy did a great job, totally behaved for me even though I didn't feed it for 5 hours and got all hot from my graduation robe and hat. baby wasn't happy but as I spent my entire commencement looking for the fastest escape route in case I puked, I am just grateful the little bean didn't make me loose it in front of all 2000 of my fellow graduates and their families.
          I'm not sure if it's the baby, or the second trimester or the fact the I graduated and am no longer under extreme but the morning sickness...GONE!! All of it, gone! Magically, on Wednesday morning I woke up and was not only sickless but feelin awesome, almost not pregnant! It was beautiful! I'm one happy girl.
           Mom took me pregnancy clothes shopping this week and it was great! I finally got a bra to fit my new and improved built in baby feeders and some awesome shirts and pants for the next few months! Finally something to wear! Chad even enjoyed it, I think he was disappointed that we didn't buy the baby belly pillow, he liked it a little too much.

Baby Facts: It's listening to your voice, thanks to tiny bones forming in its ears. It's growing hair, lashes and eyebrows and It's forming taste buds. The baby can now hear and recognize my voice! So cool! Baby is as big as an avocado!
