Party of 5 {weekly updates and growth}

This pregnancy has been good, overall.

I still have occasional nauseous spells, mostly at night when i am over tired and worn out from the day.

I've had headaches, congestion, nose bleeds, back pain, charlie-horses...

I feel like if I read about it, it happens to me!

The most annoying and frustrating thing is that all things dairy make me sick. :( I MISS CHEESE and ICE CREAM!!!

When I was pregnant with Ava, it was the best days of my life! I never was sick, or anything...such a breeze! I would tell people "I'd be pregnant all year long."...NOT this time.

I fully understand that I don't have it bad AT ALL. Just a little worse than I was expecting considering Ava's pregnancy was such a great time. Because of all these differences, I thought I was having a boy...nope...we are having ANOTHER GIRL! (I posted about the gender reveal here).

Here are a few weekly growth pics.

I also and BIGGER now then with Ava...Ug!

17 weeks

18 weeks

19 weeks (Thanksgiving)

20 weeks

25 weeks

I am 28 weeks now!

We went for a 3D ultrasound last week and got to see a little sneak peek of our new princess.

As you all can guess, she looks like Pete, Colin and Ava. What's a mom to do?...

She is right on track with growth and she is such a little mover!

Great, just what we need, another crazy girl to add to the bunch. ;0)

We are SO EXCITED to meet this little lady!

Baby Willetts' Gender Reveal!

Back in December, we found out that Baby Willetts is a GIRL!

Mommy did my usual preparation for a SPECIAL event. :)

Before the big reveal, we took a few family photos for our Christmas cards.

The family came out to celebrate.

Raimondo=team pink (Gina said she didn't have any pink.)

Willetts=team blue

HA!

Colin and Ava each got a Big Brother and Big Sister gifts.

They were both really excited about their new shirts!

Ready for the big reveal!!!

IT'S A GIRL!

Ava would've been just as happy with any color balloons...she had fun chasing and playing with them. It took her a month or so to really understand that there is a REAL baby sister in my belly.

Colin on the other hand, was hoping for blue balloons. It took him a little time to except the fact that he as getting ANOTHER sister. We let him have his moment and then he was fine. He told us that he is still excited that we are having a baby, but he just REALLY wanted a brother. Poor guy. :(

There was a park in the same area we took our photos so we played for a little bit before our brunch date.
