Week 16

I feel so huge, and this is just the beginning! Today I have started to do the squat.  It is very uncomfortable and near impossible for me to bend over to pick something up off of the ground.


 I think I have felt the flutters of the little one.  I could be very wrong, but I'm not..
It was so exciting!
 I have had a really good week as far as "morning" sickness goes. I am still not quite as energetic as usual, but it feels so good to feel good! I believe I have our relief society to thank for that! They have been bringing meals for us because I can't (or couldn't) cook without getting sick.  Having healthy, easily accessible food has been extremely helpful. Next week I'm planning to get back in the kitchen!
We have such a great support system out here!  Our neighbors are so excited to dig up their old things for me and give wonderful advice.  Our friends do the same.  I never leave the Lowry's house empty handed (I am sporting the super cute and comfy maternity jeans Danielle gave me).  My family from afar is of course so wonderful!  Mardee is even bringing some maternity clothes for me when we come out to Utah (November!). At this pace, we wont have to buy a dang thing!
Too many people to thank. Thank you all.
PS. 

Confession:
I was feeling a little sorry for myself today, so I got dressed up and went out.  Do you know what I did?  I went to Target to look at baby clothes. Worked like a charm.
