Mommy is a slacker. I haven't blogged in three weeks, so I will do my best to get everything in that happened.

| baked mac-n-cheese |
We had some baked macaroni and cheese and to add a little bit more I put some chicken. It really hit the spot after not being able to eat for such a long time. Even now it's a little hard to eat but not as hard as it was in the beginning. Hopefully this pattern continues that way I can gain back some of the weight that I lost during the second trimester. (More on that later) since your daddy wants pictures of us every week I am sure you would like to know what we look like this week so here is your picture for 14 weeks and 2 days. (We normally take our pictures on Sundays thats why there is always the 2 days in there. Im sure you were wondering so I just wanted to put your mind at ease.)

| week 14.2 |
Here we are! Of course your brother had to jump in the picture. He is such a camera hog. Ok well not really. When I try to take a picture of just him, he runs away. But when its time to take our weekly picture he has to jump in there.
So that was week 14, now its time to get you updated on what happened during week 15.

| you at 15 weeks |
During week 15 you were the size of an avocado. I happen to like avocados, but most of the time I just like to eat them when they are in guacamole. Which by the way your uncle Ryan calls baby poop. I guess at this point its a little appropriate, then again maybe its not.

| week 15.2 |
Nothing really happened from what I can remember. I guess that is my fault for not blogging.
So here is our picture from 15 weeks and 2 days! Again, you're photo hog brother Goliath has made it into the picture. I know that the belly doesn't look bigger but I swear it has to be the clothes that I wear. But trust me, its getting bigger. Not only is my belly getting bigger, but my girls upstairs are starting to hurt really bad.

| you at 16 weeks |
During week 16 you were about this big, (--->)
the size of a turnip. Now what exactly is a turnip? I have no idea. All I know is what Wikipedia tells me and it tells me this:
The turnip or white turnip (Brassica rapa var. rapa) is a root vegetable commonly grown in temperate climates worldwide for its white, bulbous taproot. Small, tender varieties are grown for human consumption, while larger varieties are grown as feed forlivestock.
So there you have it. You are the size of a root vegetable. My favorite root vegetable to eat is a carrot though. I don't think you'll ever be compared size wise to one of those because they don't weigh very much and they are very skinny.

| Goliath's first haircut |
Daddy said that I got a new dog and that he didn't even look the same. Yes he looks different, but he acts the same so we know its our fur baby. Since Summer is fast approaching it only seemed fair to get rid of the long thick coat he had so he would be more comfortable. The benefit to the new do is I think it shows his adult coat better and will really help it to grow in.
Now, during this week your TiTi thought that it would be fun to go GeoCaching.
My advice to you now is, if she asks you to go on a walk say no because before you know it she will have you walking to the pier which is 3.5 miles away and not the 1 that she had told you before.
By the time we were done with that adventure my feet and back were killing me and all I wanted to do was go home and fall asleep. Sadly we couldn't do that because Daddy needed to help Uncle Matthew with a project for school. I have a feeling that we/he will be helping out with that kind of stuff for a long time.

Alright here is our picture from 16 weeks and 2 days! Again, you're photo hog brother Goliath has made it into the picture. But I should put a disclaimer on here, the 'leash' we are using is a makeshift one. I had to find something to keep him close when we went on the GeoCaching adventure. Normally I would use the retractable one, but I didn't bring it because we were supposed to stay at NayNay and TiTi's house.
Lesson number 2 from TiTi, I should always have the leash.
Ok WEEK 17!!
Hooray we are all caught up. I am so happy. Never again will I wait so long to blog again.

| you at 17 weeks |
During week 17 you are about the size of a sweet potato
(<---) see! AWW! Isn't that just the cutest thing? Well, maybe it only sounds cute because it says sweet. But what does it matter anyways.
This week was a pretty fun week for the most part. Your Uncle Ryan had his birthday and he turned 19! It's hard to believe that I have been a sister for that long. I remember the day that he was born, I wore a shirt that said: "I'm Ryan's Big Sister". I actually still have that shirt, I can't bear to part with it.
Also this week I had my doctor's appointment to make sure you are growing right. Remember when I said I hope I can gain back some weight? Well, at the doctor's appointment the Dr. told me that I was down 8 pounds from the last time I was in. I told the Dr. that it was hard to eat because everything made me feel sick but I was taking my prenatal vitamins so she was happy about that. The best part of that appointment was Daddy got to hear your very strong heartbeat for the first time, 160bpm. Now, an old wives tales tell us this means you are a girl. We won't know for sure for about 10 more days, but from the moment I found out we were expecting you I thought you were a girl. Most people around me are guessing that also and a few people are guessing you are a boy.
Yesterday I went and spent the day with Jacob and Eli. Mommy has known them both for their whole lives, well Jacob his whole life minus 6 weeks. You'll get to meet and know them. They are both really excited to meet you. Jacob says that if there are two babies in my stomach that he wants one for his mom. I told him I don't think there's two and even if there is, I couldn't give them one but they could love on and spoil as much as they wanted.
