"moving" along: 16 weeks

We are at week 16, and we have movement!! I felt my first flutters on New Years Day, followed by a couple of thumps! I've felt quite a few from then until now, and I have to say, I'm thrilled! Most of the time, it just feels like little pops in my belly! 

This week the baby is the size of an avocado - yum! Its eyes are settling into their permanent position, and its body is beginning to look a little more proportioned. 
We're counting down the days until our ultrasound! We're pretty set on our boy name, but we're having trouble deciding on a girl, so we're just going to wait and see what the little baby is before we stress about it too much!

It's "Blake" right??? LOL...So exciting that you felt something so soon! Baby Walker is pretty much moving every second but about 3 hours a day... :) The best is during worship at church!
