Hamilton Family

Happy thanksgiving from the Hamiltons. This year we have so much to be thankful for-our family, our jobs, our cat kid and making it to 30 weeks pregnant with our little guy before any major complications. Here's to getting to our goal of 37 weeks pregnant and a happy end to 2015! 

How far along? 30 Weeks   Total weight gain/loss:  10 pounds or so Maternity clothes?  Wearing maternity pants and leggings. A few maternity tops that are basics with my sweaters and cardigans.  Stretch marks?  No new ones. Just the ones from when I first got sick.  Sleep:  Sleeping okay. Getting up a lot to go pee. But I'm pretty much always tired.  Best moment this week:   Getting our Christmas tree up, ordering new stockings and getting caught up on things around the house  Worst moment this week:  long work hours, swollen ankles Miss Anything?  I miss being able to move without help and walking without a waddle. Other than that I'm feeling pretty good.  Movement:  all the time. Payden finally felt him move!  Food cravings: I really just want ice cream from fast food places.  Anything making you queasy or sick:  nope Gender:  BOY!!  Labor Signs:  No Symptoms:  Upper back pain...

We had our first 3D/4D sonogram on November 18th but our little guy was not cooperating so we have another one scheduled. But here are some pictures of our little guy at 29 weeks and 1day. Although he wanted to sleep he did flex for us which was the cutest dang thing! Our second one was done December 2nd, 2015. Wyatt was being way more active that time around. We got to see him play with his hands, open his mouth and eyes, smirk and the crazy folded position he has himself in currently. Here is our little guy at 31 weeks and 1 day.

My first WSU game of the season. November 13th.  Wyatt's first game.  Dropping of the banners!  I spy a cat enjoying her dad's gaming chair.  Someone has a dresser! And I finally found a marquee W for his room.  Thank you Aunt Kaula for the homemade bibs, burp cloths and dino blanket!  Jena had her litter of puppies on November 20th. Four boys and two girls!  Vegas cat loves to hang out with mom while dad is asleep.  Thankful for cat cuddles.  Dad likes to send me pictures of all the cat cuddles he gets when I'm not home.  One of her favorite places to sit alert watching everything around her.  More cat cuddle photis

29 weeks (and 2 days) and we've gotten to the part of high risk pregnancy were we have weekly sonograms! High risk pregnancy perk! Not liking the daily shots (duh) and daily swollen ankles.  How far along?  29 Weeks and 2 days.  Total weight gain/loss:  10 pounds or so Maternity clothes?  Wearing maternity pants and leggings. A few maternity tops that are basics with my sweaters and cardigans.  Stretch marks?  No new ones. Just the ones from when I first got sick.  Sleep:  Sleeping okay. Getting up a lot to go pee. Joy.  Best moment this week:   Our 3D/4D sonogram. It was such a cool experience even though he wasn't cooperating and we have to reschedule in order to get better pictures.   Worst moment this week: long work hours Miss Anything?  I miss being able to move without help and waking without a waddle. Other than that I'm feeling pretty good.  Movement:  all the time. Payden finally felt him move!  Fo...

28 weeks (and a day). Wyatt is the size of an eggplant 🍆 and passed his first biophysical profile sonogram (we will have to do one every week until induction date due to high risk pregnancy).  How far along?  28 Weeks and one day.  Total weight gain/loss:  7 pounds or so Maternity clothes?  Wearing maternity pants and leggings. A few maternity tops that are basics with my sweaters and cardigans.  Stretch marks?  No new ones. Just the ones from when I first got sick.  Sleep:  Sleeping okay. Getting up a lot to go pee. Joy.  Best moment this week:   Our one night stay in Kansas City thanks to my work. The hotel was amazing and it was a perfect relaxing stay.  Worst moment this week:  my constant upper back pain. Still having to deal with that sucks.  Miss Anything?  I miss being able to move without help and waking without a waddle. Other than that I'm feeling pretty good.  Movement:  all the time. I'm d...

Two of my best friends; Mandy and Kayla threw my first baby shower on November 1st. One of Nancy's friends was kind enough to let us host the shower at her home. The decorations for the party were so cute and such a perfect representation of my favorite book "Where The Wild Things Are".  The girls planned some fun games one being present bingo, guess what's in the bag but my favorite was the newly parent game where they had asked Payden questions and I had to guess what his answer was. It showed how much the two of us know each other and how excited he is to be a dad. For him not being much of a talker when it comes to his emotions it is nice to see the sweet answers he had.  I can't even put into words how cute all the gifts were and how much fun I had opening them.  The girls also know me so well to know to have a place set up for me to take pictures with everyone and even bought photo booth probs.  Plus I was lucky to have both of my sorority littles at the sho...
