16 weeks!

 
 
 
16 weeks with Marcus on the left and 16 weeks on the right with this new little bundle.

- How far along? 16 weeks.

- How big is baby? The size of an avocado.

- Total weight gain/loss? -7.5lbs. Still sick.

- Maternity clothes? Still using the rubber band trick with the button on my jeans and wearing my more flowy tops.

- Gender? Not sure just yet.

- Movement? Little butterflies.

- Sleep? I need more and more of it…still! Always exhausted still.

- Cravings/aversions? Food in general makes me sick. I want super bland stuff; saltines, bagels and cream cheese and that's about it. Mac and Cheese on occasion.

- Symptoms? Same as last week. Vomiting, exhaustion, restlessness at night, nauseous and lots of headaches.

- Things that happened this week? Nothing too exciting, I was able to hold a couple more additional meals down.



- The differences between my pregnancies: I'm SO sick this time around and the last thing I want to do is eat.

 

Love,

Katie

It's a.....

Truck!!
 
(You didn't actually think it was already time to announce the gender of baby Hampton did you??)
 
Well we enjoyed not having car payments while it lasted, but we were recently faced with two options when it came to Chris's car. Either trade it in for a new vehicle or put more money into it than it was worth. The Intrepid was having transmission issues and the car unfortunately didn't Kelly blue book for much. We took it in to Dodge only to find out that the list of necessary repairs totalled more than the car was valued at. So out with the old and in with the new!
 





 
A much larger and safer NEW!
 
We love it and are so excited to welcome it into our Growing Family.
 
Love,
Chris and Katie
