Week 16

This week has stunk. I've been sick and it's been no fun. Started feeling lousy last Friday, didn't go to work on Tuesday and instead went to the doctor and was prescribed some baby-safe meds. Well, it's the next Friday and I'll say I FINALLY started feeling a BIT better around 2:00 today. I probably shouldn't have gone to work Wednesday or Thursday, or Friday for that matter, but I did. Probably got my entire class sick, but hey, I'm saving my sick days as best as possible for maternity leave.

Anyway! Here is my week 16 picture. I was feeling pretty lousy when this was taken. Wait, it's only a belly shot. I hope you can't tell I'm sick just from a belly shot.

In other news, it was my birthday this week! Happy 27th to me. Despite being sick, it really was a great day.
