+1

Long time no blog. Since my last blog, our big news to share is that we're expecting! Woohoo! Due date is October 21 and I'm 16 weeks (plus 2 days). All is going well, I'm feeling better, and getting a little bigger too! We're really excited and are eagerly awaiting to find out if we're having a little boy or a little girl. Our 20 week ultrasound (and when we hopefully find out the gender) is scheduled for June 2. Only 3 weeks and 4 days...and counting! I hope it flies by!

We are ready for the summer and I think the pool will be officially open this weekend. It's been nice and warm all week and the water feels great! Stay tuned for more updates on Cynford + 1!

I saw this milestone list on another person's blog and thought it was neat to see how things change from week to week, so here's what up with me in week 16!
