16 Weeks-Holiday Fun

Phew! What a busy holiday season it has been! So proud that we finally got to send out our first family holiday card as the Dahers! 

Ahmad and I have been having so much fun with our friends and family this month. I would have to say our favorite holiday party this year was at The Evans Estate. My friend Katie had the best decor, music, guest list (shout out to my fellow preggo-Laura, thanks for letting me ask so many questions!) and most importantly (at least for this pregnant lady).....an amazing food table! :) 

Christmas Eve was by far the best night! We went over to Ahmad's Mom's house and made pizza's with the family. Who knew my *brother Omar had such amazing pizza making skillz?! After pizza's our friends the Reeves family came over to play a fun game of PicWits, drink tea and we all couldn't stop eating these amazing peanut butter cookies Mrs. Reeves made. Definitely a new tradition we are going to have to keep. Not pictured is my beautiful *sister Haneen, she was elbow deep in pizza sauce and then was busy taking care of the newest addition to the family, Zane. 

* I am not a fan on putting "In-Law" after, we are family now who cares if it is by law or not. The More You Know... 

Things are getting saucy!

Mama Mia!

You didn't see nothin', so don't say nothin'!

We love our Tata! 

How far along: 16 Weeks

Gender Prediction: I'm going to guess girl because everyone is saying they think it will be a girl. 

Weight gain: 5lbs.

Maternity clothes: Still wearing regular clothes, legging and my maternity jeans. My tops are starting to get a little tight around the chest area if you know what I mean. :/ 

Have you started to show yet: I feel like I am still in that stage of "Is she pregnant or did she eat too many burritos?"

Stretch marks: Nope, loving my Palmers Cocoa Butter and oil.  

Belly button in or out: In

Sleep: I have been sleeping great, but I keep waking up at 3am to go to the bathroom. 

Best moment this week: Christmas fun!

Exercise: So proud of myself for finally having a daily work out routine! I do 30 minutes on the elliptical followed by some light weights or I will walk a couple miles with our Havanese dog Leon and do some floor exercises.   

Miss anything: It's hard watching everyone cheers with Champagne.  

Movement: I thought I felt something the other day, but I am sure it was just a figment of my imagination.....or gas. Hehe ;) 

Symptoms:  Still pretty emotional, it doesn't take much for me to tear up. 

Happy or Moody most of the time: Very Happy!!

Cravings: Pineapple, strawberries, salad with Italian dressing. For those who don't know me, I HATE raw tomatoes. I can eat salsa and things like that, but I have NEVER been one to just slice tomatoes up and throw them in my salad....until now. For some reason I can't seem to get enough of them.   

Wedding Rings on or off: On

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope, feeling really good! Hamdullah!

Looking forward to: Feeling movement and New Years-We have out next check up on the 31st!
