26/27 weeks
this was my "small" side
27ish weeks...whoa.
not sure what the kids are high on here...fatigue, maybe?
shockingly, the trip is all a blur to me now. but my heart was so full from being with them in their home.
this shirt almost looks like a dress on me now...HAHA!!
missing you, bro
27 weeks with our newest babe
28 weeks
do you see the nastiness that is our master bedroom wall color?! can't wait to paint!
How Far Along: 28 weeks
Size of baby: 16 inches and about 2.5 lbs! A head of cauliflower makes no sense to me...these size comparisons are screwy!
Total Weight Gain/Loss: Gained 30 pounds. If I'm awake, I'm gaining.
Maternity Clothes: I'm taking a dear friend's advice in hopes of surviving this pregnancy feeling more "normal" than the last and am buying stretchy tank tops, leggings, and wearing gauchos, dresses, and skirts. It's working out splendidly and I am super comfortable. Minus the 106 degree weather.
Gender: Boy!
Movement: Love it...that is something that never gets old and i always miss when i'm not pregnant. He's moving more these days - trying to get his exercise in between contractions, hah!
Food Cravings: I don't subscribe to the "pregnancy cravings" notion...I mean, we all crave something at some point or another in a given day, right? Pregnant women may just be a bit more demanding assertive when it comes to cravings. However, sour things have ALWAYS been my fave and are great when I'm nauseous!
I am also loving salads and fruit and frozen yogurt...but that's mostly me and a Georgia summer thing!

What I miss: not being out of breath so much!
Sleep: sleeping as well as i can, when i can...no more than a 3-4 hour stretch at a time. crazy, disturbing and scary dreams are rampant. and little boy tickles sometimes when i'm trying to get comfy. Pregnancy dream recap: my 1st crush, sis' wedding,caucasian mountain dog, & I found out I was pregnant again while still pregnant w/this babe.What the what?!
Symptoms: Crazy dreams, some nausea, fatigue, random bloody nose, round ligament pain (SO much worse and sooner this time around - OUCH!), and forgetfulness...don't count on me to remember to do something these days! New ones: sciatica(WHAT?!) and my finger nails are ridiculously thick. dry and brittle, but thick. it's pretty amazing. not so amazing symptom? being out of breath.
Best moment this week: Third Trimester!! And my ob visit...she's just the greatest. And couldn't stop saying how great and gorgeous I look...haha, that's a way to get on my good side!
What I am looking forward to: getting the boys' room together - Ace picked out the paint and I just need to get to sewing their bedding!
