27 weeks

I finally have a official due date, and we're going with the date of my last period, so it's May 14th!! I will be induced a week early which is May 7th or better known as Harrison's Birthday!! Who knows what day we'll officially pick, but I'm hoping for it not to have to be the 7th, although Harrison thinks it would be great to have his sister on his Birthday!! Thinking he wouldn't think it was so great next year!! Nothing like picking "the day" and scheduling it around what works best for everyone, I will always wonder what it would feel like just to go into labor!!

I had a Dr. appointment last Friday along with a ultrasound, got to sneak another pick at our little girl and of course confirm it's still a little girl...and it is :) She's adorable if I do say so myself and reminds me of Max! I love getting the chance to see her sweet little face already!! I remember when I got to see Max in 3D before I had him, I swear my heart grew two sizes bigger at that exact moment, as it did this time as well :) Here is our little sweet pea...


I've been feeling pretty good, feeling much more pregnant and umm looking it if I do say so myself. I finally broke down and ordered some maternity shirts hope they get here soon, I don't want my belly poking out of the bottom of my shirt when I'm out and about! I'm still around that 3-5 pound weight gain, promised the Doc to have a couple of milk shakes per week!! Thinking this won't be hard with the nice weather starting down here, it's been close to hitting 70's or in the low 70's, makes going for ice cream sound like a good idea!! I could complain about a few aches and pains, but I know that it just comes with pregnancy and knowing that these last 12 weeks will be my last 12 weeks of experiencing this I'm trying to just take it all in!! So here I am at 27 weeks, or 27 1/2 if you want to get technical ;) That is a baby bump that cannot be denied!! And I'll say it again, I suck at taking these pictures!!


Speaking of 12 weeks can I just say holy crap!! I feel like I have all the time in the world to get things around but I think it's really going to sneak up on us! I really have nothing around and ready, like I said in my last post we were hoping to move so I kinda was putting everything on hold until that happened, but now that it's not I have to figure it out in this house for now. Which I think means...
  • She's going to camp out in our room with us.
  • Max is going to get to keep the crib until he's ready to leave it, I have no nursery to hurry up and decorate so why force the kid out.
  • I need to find a dresser to paint, I'm thinking a old vintage looking dresser in a nice pink, what do you think?
  • I need to make room for this baby in my room..yikes!! Tim is against putting the baby in my walk in closet so I guess she's gets to camp out by his side of the bed :)
A few little things that I would like to remember...
  • I'm still trying to sleep on my stomach with a pillow to help keep me propped up and when I wake up in the morning, she's curled up on the opposite side, you can see her protruding from the one side of my stomach and it feels like you can grab right a hold of her!! This is definitely one of the highlights of my day!!
  • She seems pretty quiet, not a ton of crazy moving and shaking going on in there!
  • At her 27 week ultrasound she weighed 1.9 pounds and was in the breech position.
  • I'm much wider this time around than I was with at least the last two boys.
  • I seem to grow as the day goes on some days, in the morning I might start of pretty small and end the day looking pretty big. Weird, I don't really remember that happening, but it has been awhile!!
I know that was a long post, just a few things I wanted to document for memory sake and had to share the pic's!!
