Week 16!

Hi everyone!

I'm now 16 weeks, so here are a couple new photos of the ever-growing belly! My body is definitely making up for the fact that I lost 4 pounds during the height of my Morning Sickness - my appetite has kicked into over-drive! Last week, I did something I've never done before: I actually went back for second's at Souplantation! I definitely got my money's worth out of "all you can eat!"

My adorable and super-crafty sister-in-law, Jen, made me a really sweet pregnancy goody bag (photo above), with a separate gift for me to open for each of the remaining months of my pregnancy. I'm going to try to restrain myself and not peek ahead at all the cute gift tags and motherhood quotes she made for each month! September's gift was the book "Baby Laughs" by Jenny McCarthy. I've heard it's a fun read, so I'm looking forward to starting it. Thanks Jen!! If you want to check out Jen's blog about her crafts and thrifty finds, take a look at the link to "Mimi Bella Boo" on the side of my blog.

We're hoping to find out the sex of Baby Tipper (aka Mini Tipdawg) at our appointment on Thursday, but I'm trying to mentally prepare myself in case it turns out that we have to wait another month to get the news... I'll keep you posted!
