Whoosh, Whoosh, Whoosh

This week we had our 16 week appointment. It was a great day for many reasons. First, it felt amazing to have reached this far in the pregnancy considering we faced some uphill battles early on. Also, it was the point in the pregnancy when we were first able to hear the baby's heart beat! It was such a great day especially since I had been having some irrational pregnancy worries as of late. That whoosh, whoosh, whoosh signified that everything is just fine though! :)

Now some even more exciting news...in just two weeks we get to find out if Kinley will have a little sister or a little brother! Any guesses? Kevin originally thought boy...probably wishful thinking! However, now he is leaning more towards girl. Me? I'm not really sure. I think maybe boy since this pregnancy has been a little different than Mckinley, but who knows, all pregnancies are really different. Either way we will obviously be happy, but I am dying to know. I'm a planner through and through and I cannot stand not knowing! I think we are coming to a point when things are finally going to start feeling a little more real. I'm showing, starting to feel a little movement (no kicks or punches yet though), and soon we will know the answer to the big question! For now though I am just really happy that both the baby and me are doing well in this pregnancy!

Ok now on a side note and to add a few pictures to the post, we have also been enjoying the fall festivities here in the Hinton home. We went to the pumpkin patch, Kinely painted some pumpkins of her own, and we carved a couple pumpkins too! Here is some picture documentation showcasing the fun!
