16 weeks and surviving the heat

Over the past week we have had some record breaking highs in the Seattle area, and things are only supposed to continue heating up. This heat is making it impossible to get a good night of sleep. Scott and I have been going out to eat more often lately to escape the heat since turning on the oven or stove has been the last thing that we've wanted to do. Really, the only thing that sounds good though is ice cream and Popsicles.

I spent some time looking in the mirror yesterday, and realized that I hardly recognize my body. I can't believe how much I've changed and grown already. I felt like I went through a growth spurt this week because my belly feels much bigger, I can even see my veins on the sides of my stomach. I have felt a lot of tightening, stretching and pulling this week in my lower abdomen. This has also contributed to my difficulty in sleeping and made it just overall more difficult to get comfortable.

Here is a picture of me at 16 weeks... I feel like I've grown a ton in just 1 week!

This weekend I am really looking forward to staying home. I recently realized that out of the last 7 weekends, Scott and I have only been in town for one of them. We have had a seriously busy summer. It will be fun to tell this baby all of the places he/she has been before even entering this world.

We're about a month away from finding out the sex of our little baby Davis and have been trying to think of names. This has been so difficult, because there are so many that we like, and so many that we don't. It took us forever to name our dog Mya, and this is about a million times harder.

Boy or girl, we are so excited to meet you baby Davis!
