I’m 28 weeks pregnant today! Pardon the hot mess picture, we just took this tonight after an exhausting day. P.S. Exhaustion these days consists of simple things like walking, grocery shopping, or doing laundry.
I decided to do the ole’ pregnancy survey this week so that I can remember everything I wanted to say about reaching my 3rd trimester:
How far along: 28 weeks
Total Weight Gain: Last doctor visit, I had gained a total of 6 lbs. We will see in a couple of days when I go back!
Stretchmarks: Could there BE more stretch marks? I haven’t noticed any new ones since my first pregnancy, but who’s counting?
Sleep: Getting harder and harder to get comfortable. I’m fighting the urge to buy one of those $50 pregnancy pillows, but it may eventually come to that. Last night I actually pulled a muscle trying to turn over.
Best Moment This Week: Best moment of the entire pregnancy was finding out that I don’t have Gestational Diabetes this time!
Movement: Getting stronger! Apparently Foster got the memo about today being the first day of my 3rd trimester, because he decided to switch his movements from soft kicks and punches to HARD rolls and elbows.
Belly Button: Still in but flattening out. I love to feel the soft skin in there that isnt usually exposed to the outside world. Is that weird? :)
What I Miss: Nothing really, I’m soaking in every moment of this pregnancy since it will more than likely be our last.
What I am Looking Forward to: Holding the little guy and smelling his head!
Cravings: Everything spicy. Buffalo dip, flaming hot cheetos, hot fries.

In other news, Ellie Kate looked super stylish in her new smocked outfit today so I had to steal some pics. I only had to take about 48,000 to get these decent ones. I NEED to get the 50mm lens for my camera so I can get more light in!
Ellie still *has to have* her “milky” before bedtime and naptime or she throws a fit. We are thinking it’s about time to wean her from this habit, with potty training coming up. Any tips?
Isn't this a cute outfit? I was so proud of myself. I usually never buy nice smocked clothes for Ellie because (a) I’m cheap and (b) I figure she only needs play clothes that she can get dirty in, but when I saw this set on zulily.com for $23.00 I had to jump on it!

LOL, I was OBSESSED with my big pregnancy pillow. I had the Snoogle! My husband hated it so much that once I came home from the hospital after delivering, it was already at the end of the driveway for the garbagemen, hahaha.
You look great!
You are so cute pregnant!
And Ellie is getting so big! She's beautiful :)

thoughts on potty training and milk....we HAD to stop all drinks about an hour before bed time, it was hard, milk was such a comfort for my daughter. But, it works for night time training.
Go to bed bath and beyond they have body pillows for $10 u buy the cover for another 10/---- not labeled for preg so they don't jack up the price I got one around 29 weeks and lived it still use it even 5 months post partum
