16 Weeks

Sweet Pea, you sure are growing -- you are the size of a large onion this week! We are getting ready for Christmas, and your daddy and I are going to have a special quiet Christmas at home. We were really happy to see everyone at the wedding celebrations last week, and this week we want to take it easy with you. Things are moving quite nicely. We get our second round of blood tests back next week, and we will get to hear your heart beat again.

We are also doing our prenatal yoga stretches, and I have been marching in place in the morning to get our blood flowing! Your Auntie Jenny gave you your first book - Paddington the Bear, and your daddy has started reading it to you at night. It was one of my favorites when I was little, and your daddy and l agree, it is where we both learned about orange marmalade!

We are really starting to grow:

XXOO,

Mommy
