16 week checkin

Baby is doing well--heartbeat was 160 yesterday. Unfortunately, the sour stomach has not yet gone away, but my doctor said wait until after week 18 to see if it tapers off.

I'm starting to round in the belly...the waist I was working on will have to wait to come out and play again. Here's the proof:
Okay, so we both stuffed balls in our shirts but I could look like that at the end, right? I seriously hope not though!

Evie is so excited about the baby. Everyday she mentions something she will do with the baby or share with the baby, etc. It is so cute. I think I hurt her feelings today because she was talking about the baby in her belly (she, daddy and I all have babies in our bellies and the ladies are having girls because girls have girls and daddy is having a boy) and started talking about her baby coming out of her belly. I told her that her baby won't come out and when she asked why I said it was because hers was a pretend baby. She cried like I broke her heart and begged me to help her get a real baby in her belly. I felt bad, but I didn't want her to be confused either. She recovered by the time we got to school but man, that was not a parent of the year moment!

And finally, when asked for girl name suggestions since we have a boy name from last time, Evie's suggestion: Fathfa. We are going to continue looking for girl names, obviously.
