Almost 16 weeks!

So this pregnancy seems to be going well. I have pretty good energy, no swelling (so far), but I am definaltey showing quickly. One woman thought I was 5 months! She must have been skinny pregnant LOL.

I go for my second IPS bloodtest this week. I just want the results to come back positive so that I can exhale. Ever since I experienced that episode of bleeding I have been a little worried.

I should know in a few weeks if it is a boy or a girl, but I have pretty much decided that either way I will name the little Monkey Evan. Evan James Alexander if it is a boy or Evan Alexandra Rose or Evan Elizabeth Rose if it is a girl. Stil working on it...but I've got some time...

I have harldy told anyone (who wouldn't already notice), I guess you just don't have the same urge to tell everyone the way you do the first time.

I will likely take mat leave in the middle of April - the baby is due May 10th - so that should give me a good month to get ready for the chaos that ensures with #2 ;).

Kaia has been very dear. She sings twinkle twinkle little star to my belly and talks to it really sweetly...I can't wait to see the two of them together. I like the sound of Kaia and Evan ...simple but strong names...

I think it might be a boy...but time will tell...
