Guess what I'm wearing today? Maternity pants! I was down to 2 pairs of pants that fit me and one of those was starting to get too tight. Yesterday, Kris and I were out shopping and I found 3 pairs of pants; a pair of jeans, a pair of black pants and a pair of khaki-colored pants. It is so nice to be able to wear all the shirts in my closet again! The one pair of regular pants that still fit were a pair of gray slacks. Not everything in my closet goes with gray pants! I do need to go through my closet and get rid of a bunch of clothes though to make room for the new ones I'm going to be needing in the next few months.

I was wondering last week if I was just putting on weight since I'm not watching as carefully what I was eating or if I was truly beginning to show. I bought the maternity pants because I figured I'd need them soon enough anyway. Then, last night I get my weekly e-mail from epregnancy.com. It said that at 16 weeks (which is what I'll be on Wednesday), that the baby is typically around 12 centimeters from crown to rump. That's 4.7 inches long! In my belly! No way! Yeah, I guess I'm not just gaining weight! I really am starting to show! Of course, those that don't know I'm pregnant will probably think I'm just gaining weight, but they'll know soon enough! This secret won't be a secret for very much longer!

Think good thoughts for my doctor appointment on Wednesday! I just keep praying for a healthy pregnancy and baby!
