27 Weeks

{ Due to the b-e-a-u-tiful weather this weekend I have not drawn my chalkboard yet . . . therefore no picture yet.  To fill the space I have posted a picture from Jon's swearing in this past Friday.}

How far along? 27 weeks

Total weight gain/loss: 18 pounds

Maternity clothes? Maxi skirts and dresses almost everyday.  

Stretch marks? I thought I had one, turns out it was just a vein.

Sleep: Sleeping great but I have been waking up at 5:30 or 6 everyday.  . . perfect for work, not so perfect on the weekend. 

Symptoms: It is becoming more difficult to get in and out of cars, out of bed or off the sofa. 

Miss anything: Being able to work outside all day. . . I had to take so many breaks this weekend {bathroom, water, snack, repeat}

Movement: Lots of moving around this week.  The baby has found the perfect place to lay . . . on my bladder. 

Food cravings: Smoothies.  With the warmer weather I have been craving a tropical fruit smoothie almost everyday.  Too bad I can't make them at work. :(

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing this week.

Gender Prediction: Boy 

Labor Signs: None

Belly Button in or out? In

Wedding rings on or off? On

Happy or Moody most of the time: I was Happy this week . . . . :)

Best Moment of the Week: One of my co-workers heard that my closet was quickly shrinking, so she generously brought me an enormous bag of tops.  They are all Mediums so they are still a little big, but they will be perfect later this spring.

Looking forward to: Going to Chinatown on Tuesday.  We are taking 60 Kindergarteners to Chinatown since we are currently on our imaginary trip to China.  Jon is volunteering in case I am feeling particularly pregnant that day.
