16 weeks!

Happy weekend friends and fam! I've never been so happy for the weekend...woohooo! One of my favorite things about living in Arizona is the beautiful weather. A few days ago we took Rocco to the dog park and it was so cute to see all the families of Surpise out and about! We also live in a HUGE retirement community and it made me smile to see how spoiled alot of these little dogs were with their owners! One cute older lady had a coat, bows, and sparkley collar on her pooch and was worried about her precious little one getting bullied....so funny :) Here are a few highlights of "Rocco's Modern Life"(old TV cartoon for those of you who remember!)

Could he be any happier to be at the dog park??

For those of you who haven't seen Rocco's handstand...Here it is! He's a circus freak :)

 Pretty Arizona :) Who says there's no water here ;)

 Happy 100th Birthday Arizona!

 My Hot hubby!

Have you ever seen a dotson this fat? His belly is about to hit the floor!

 

Who says you can't fish in the Phoenix area? (cough cough Kyle!)

 This cute older man was fishing and talking to his buddy how he hasn't gotten a bite all day...I thought he was so cute with his little sun hat :)

 16 weeks!

Today's date: Saturday Feb. 4^th, 2012

How far along: 16 weeks..and one day ;)

Sex: Still feeling boy but who knows!

Maternity clothes: My belly is so low that no pants button anymore L The belly band is my best friend and I’m glad the long shirts are in style J

Sleep: I sleep all night and no interruptions J

Best moment(s) of the week: Having a few kiddos making benchmark in Reading…it’s crazy how quick 7 year olds grow in learning! And how excited they get once they can read independently J

Movement: I definitely felt something on Monday night! I had just eaten applesauce, laid down to sleep, and felt little flutters! It stopped then happened again about 10 minutes later…very faint feeling still though.

Food cravings/aversions: Anything Sweet! And Jimmy Johns of course….heating up the meat has actually been kind of tasty

Morning sickness: THANK GOD IT’S OVER!!! I thought I was going to be teaching/puking the rest of my life

Symptoms: belly aches from growing pains, fatigue, back aches and shoulder aches, moodiness for sure…..I don’t think I’m as pleasant to be around :/

Labor signs: Way too soon.

Belly button in or out:  Becoming very wide and huge! I can see the inside of my belly button for the first time in my life…and I also think it’s time for a pregnancy belly ring J I already picked one out I like J

What I miss: Family, Wine, Energy, and time to get things done that I need to

What I'm looking forward to: Gender Ultrasound in a month and seeing lots of family this Spring J
