Stretching baby

Well today was a great day, we are 17 weeks! I can't believe that next week we will be 5 months. Also today, Bean was making my belly hurt some. I was having a lot of pain from stretching, especially on my right side. Every time I've had an ultrasound, Bean has been on my right side, so I think that is it's favorite. Bean should be about 5 inches long now which still seems so small to me. Many of the teachers at work keep asking when I'm going to start showing, and I feel like I am! It is weird how I feel big, but when other people see me they think I'm still small. We get to see my parents the first weekend in March, and I'm excited that my family gets to see me. I haven't seen my parents since Christmas, so I figure they will think I've grown. I'm also excited that in 2 1/2 weeks we will be off for spring break and going to a Spurs vs. Rockets game. I haven't ever been to an NBA game, so I am looking forward to it.

On Saturday, Mike and I are going to do a 5K walk for the start of the Houston Rodeo. We joined a team with Mike's work, so I'm looking forward to getting some exercise. I am also a team captain for Relay for Life with our school team. I was really nervous about being a team captain, but I have another teacher that said she would be a co-captain with me. We have some fundraisers planned at school, and I am raising as much money as possible. I think I have $250 dollars now, and my goal is $300. Our walk is April 17th, so I'll be 6 months by then. As long as my energy level stays up, I think I'll have a blast. Anyway, I wish I had more to share, but I really don't =(. Things are going well, and that is the important thing. Hope everyone has a safe and great week.
