I'm 28 weeks as of today and officially in my 3rd trimester!  We have an ultrasound this Thursday afternoon and I can't wait to see my sweet little baby on that monitor.  We last had one at the end of March and I'm anxious to see how much she's grown.  I think it may even be a 3d scan, but I'm not completely sure.  I'm thinking after this appointment I'll get busy ordering all the cute nursery decor I've found on Etsy!

 

Baby is moving like crazy these days and although I love it - I'd be lying if I said it didn't feel weird.  Sometimes her kicks just make me flinch... they're so strong!  Graham's enjoying it now that he's finally getting to feel them too.

 

Same overall symptoms as the previous weeks: frequent urination, craving carbs and sweets, hair is growing like crazy, and I'm moody as hell at work.  Nothing new!  haha!  I know it's not going to be anywhere close to a "vacation", but I'm counting down the days until I get to get away from work for 6 weeks.  I really don't want to go back, but I haven't figured out a way to make that happen yet.  I'll just continue to pray and leave it in God's hands.

 

I've been keeping really busy at home with mowing and watering the yard, watering the plants, and 'trying' to keep the house clean.  I mean it's not like a tornado has been through there, but it could definitely use a good scrub down.  I just don't wanna!

 

My bff, sister, and SIL are starting to get busy making plans for my baby shower and I'm so excited.  The date's set for June 7th, so I'll have plenty of time to get whatever we still need that we don't end up getting at the shower.  That way if baby comes early (like I'm hoping), we'll be prepared.

 

We had a great weekend visiting my family in Texas, but I was so glad to be home.  I'm just getting far too big to be in the truck for hours at a time and I'm most comfortable in my own bed.  That will likely be my last trip away from home until after delivery.  =(

 

Please continue to keep our little family in your prayers!
