27 weeks

Today marks the third trimester! Where did the time go? We got a lot done in the last few days! We went to register at Babies R Us and Target, and made finishing touches on her room. It was a little overwhelming to realize how much stuff we actually need for one little baby, but we have a good start and im sure we will think about additions to the registery in the next few weeks.

As far as the her room, Nate stripped and re-stained the rocking chair. I was a little nervious, but it turned out very well! We also broke down and got a bedding set because we couldn't find pieces that matched with the quilt I made. So as it turns out the quilt will just be an extra blanket for her to use...

Eggplant

Our little Grace is getting bigger and bigger! Almost daily Nate turns to me and say's "Wow" I cant believe how much bigger you are than yesterday!

How far along: 25 weeks
Total weight gain: 12 lbs since 6 weeks
Stretch marks?: Nope
Sleep: Back to bad...if your ever up from 3-5am give me a call
Best moments this week: Feeling the baby quite a bit, and seeing her kick from the outside.
Food cravings: candy, cheese frys, tomatos, olives, and ...
Labor signs?: Nope
Belly Button: getting smaller
What I miss the most: being able to go have a drink with friends after a hard day, having energy to get everything done, and being able to buy the new cute summer clothes, People looking at my face rather than how big my tummy is getting:)
What I am looking forward to the most: hitting the 28 week mark and finishing the babies room so we can at least check one thing off the list!

Furniture!

Our furniture finally came in! Nate picked it up and put it together tonight. At first i was a bit nervious about the size of the three pieces; but when it all came together in the right space, we both decided that it looks perfect. Peanut even tried it out and gave her aproval. Take a look!

getting ready

Sometimes I'm really thankful to have thrusdays off! My project for last Thursday was making baby bedding. We had decided that we would not use a bumper pad because of all the safety recomendations so we didn't want to buy a whole set, and we couldn't find one that we really liked sooo... Nate and I went and picked out fabric and heres what we made:

21-24 weeks

To tired!

Sorry I haven't been keeping up with the posts to much lately, Ive been really busy at work and so tired when it get home. It takes all the energy I have left to get ready for the next day and make dinner. We went to the doctor yesterday, nothing is really new. She is right on track for growth and still has a HR of 147. Were still waiting for our furniture to arrive, and looking forward to going to get fabric for the nursery so we can put the finishing touches on everything.
