20 Week Appointment

I can't say it enough... God is so good! Mitch and I went this past Friday morning for my 20 week appointment. This appointment consisted of so many exciting things! We would find out whether or not our baby is healthy, specifically his/her heart, lungs, brain, and kidneys, as well as, finding out the baby's gender. Needless to say, I didn't sleep very well on Thursday night! Thankfully, Friday turned out to be a great appointment with news that brought such happiness to Mitch and myself. Our sweet baby GIRL is completely healthy and already weighs 11 ounces!

Every good and perfect gift comes from HIM! James 1:17


She's going to be a shy one! Covering up her little face with her arms :)


Love her sweet profile.. It kind of looks like she's sucking her thumb! :)


We're having a sweet Baby Girl! :)

After my appointment on Friday we decided to go to Babies R us to buy Hensley Elizabeth her first girlie outfit! :) It had to be purple! :)



Below are a few other outfits that sweet friends and family have bought Hensley! :)

16 Weeks :)



Time goes by soooooooo fast! I can't believe that I'll be 17 weeks along on Thursday. We're already so in love with this baby. Today at my 16 week appointment I got to hear our sweet one's heartbeat. Since I only get to hear his/her heartbeat at my doctor's appointments each month it's such a special time for me. Tears filled my eyes today when I heard the precious sound... God is so good and I'm beyond thankful with how He's taken care of me and the baby over the past weeks. I pray for this child daily and I'm so excited to learn of the exciting plans that God has for his/her future.

How far along? 16 1/2 weeks


How big is the baby? About 5-6 inches long

Weight gain? 3.5 lbs since my 12 week appointment

Stretchmarks? Thankfully, not yet!

Sleep? I can't sleep on my stomach anymore...

Best moment of the week? Hearing my love's heartbeat today at my doctor's appointment!

Food and Cravings? Cookies and Cream Ice Cream :)

Movement? No movement yet.. Can't wait for it to happen!

What I miss? Being able to fit into my old clothes..

Belly Button? Still an innie :)

Looking forward to? My 20 week appointment where we find out if Baby Evans is a boy or girl!

Milestone? Having a great checkup today :)
