Do I just look chubs?

For weeks now, I have been making your father crazy with daily questions of "does this make me look pregnant?"  The thing is, even just past 16 weeks, I haven't yet made a public announcement about being pregnant, so I am still trying to keep it on the dl.  However today, I put on a totally normal outfit for me, jeans (albeit maternity ones) and a shirt that I always thought looked flattering on me.  As I looked in the mirror, I thought, oh shoot, I am totally pregnant.  My belly has outgained my boobs!  Nice work kids.

The thing is, the scale tells me I've only put on 3 lbs or so since before I was pregnant.  And I am pretty sure those 3 lbs are all giant uterus, amniotic fluid, and you.  So it's time to amp it up.  Milkshakes are my plan toward putting on enough weight for you two.  Maybe the doc will tell me tomorrow that it's all fine and that I am putting on plenty of weight.  But we will see, my cherubs, we will see.

Hope you're having fun in there!  I read that you two are touching each other now (well, as best as you can through your separate placentas).  Play nice please.  Also, as of Saturday, you are apparently each the size of an avocado.  Your grandma asked, when I told her, a big avocado or a little avocado.  I wasn't sure how to answer, so I just said a 4 inch avocado.  That seemed to make her feel better.
