Symptoms: I have been suffering from morning sickness but take Zofran and it helps A TON! I also feel really hot all the time and have to have the A/C blasting all day. Strangely I have also been really weird about smells--I can't stand the smell of Tide and Downy. At all. It stinks.
Best Moment this Week: Scheduling our Gender Check ultrasound and planning our Gender Reveal party! September 19th!

A Cruise for Two

I just realized that I never posted about our cruise! We had such a great time and loved being able to spend some quality time together. There were definitely some tears when we had to leave our baby girl but we survived and so did she :)

From wave runner's on the ocean, THE BEST shrimp tacos on the beach, to zip lining through the jungle and soaking up some ray's, we couldn't have asked for a better vacation!

12 Weeks

So I totally love when people do pregnancy updates on their blogs and I seriously regretted NOT documenting my pregnancy with Hattie. On the other hand, I hate the way I look when I'm pregnant and will probably end up regretting doing this BUT I'm going to stick it out in hopes that in the end I will enjoy looking back at this time. Here goes nothin'...


Pregnancy Highlights:
How far Along: 12 weeks
Size of baby: Size of a lime
Total Weight Gain/Loss: 0 lbs
Maternity clothes: Not yet
Gender: We will find out at 16 weeks!
Movement: Not yet
Sleep: I haven't been sleeping very well and get up 2-3 times.
What I miss: Sleeping through the night. Ha!
Cravings: Mexican food. Salty foods.
Symptoms: I have been suffering from morning sickness but take Zofran and it helps A TON! I also feel really hot all the time and have to have the A/C blasting all day. Strangely I have also been really weird about smells--I can't stand the smell of Tide and Downy. At all. It stinks.
Best Moment this Week: Telling our family and friends the BIG news :)

Kind of a BIG deal...

Well...we have an announcement to make...Hattie is going be a...

BIG SISTER!

She was a little surprised at first when we told her the news

But then she got pretty excited!
We told our families through a little "birthday" invitation I made online and Hattie handed them out in her Big Sister shirt.
(I blurred some of the details for privacy reasons)

Needless to say we cannot wait to add another addition to The Pack Clan :)

Sweet Baby Evalyn

I am excited to say that I have a new niece! Evalyn finally arrived on July 29th and she is absolutely darling! We are so happy for Daniel and Kylie and loved having them visit for a few days! Every time I held little Evalyn I kept thinking, "Was my baby ever really this small?!" You forget so quickly! Hattie of course wanted to know where the "baby" was at all times and loved giving her kisses on her tiny head. She adores her new cousin.

Enjoy this time Dan and Kylie it goes by WAY TOO FAST!

We love you three :)
