Well, Happy 3rd Trimester! I can't believe we only have about 3 months to go...a little less actually but who's counting?! :) Anyway, things have been busy as can be! We ended up having a major problem with our house in NJ and I went up for a couple days last week to take care of some of the mess. E.J.'s going up soon and so is his brother. Good news is...we've decided to sell it and hopefully will by the summer or end of the summer. Once we sell that house we can move and I've wanted to move for quite a while now. We really need more space in our current house. We've lived here for 12 years! It's closing in on us and now that we'll have 2 kids we really need the extra room:)
Other than that....little Emil is growing up so much! He's so much fun....walking/running around like a little wild man. It's such a fun time having him around and watching him grow:) E.J.'s soccer season is starting to slow down a little bit, I think it ends in a couple weeks. Work for me was really busy in March b/c I had some "busy work" that I ended up having to do for most of the month. But overall things are good right now. Anyway, here's my stats....
•How far along?: 27 weeks, 3 days
•Baby is the size of a: Ear of corn, 2.2lbs, 15in.
•Total weight gain/loss: 19lbs. Ugh. I'm 2lbs more than I was with Emil at this point. That was at 26+4.... I know I've been eating really bad though and haven't been going to the gym so I've made a change to eating better (for the most part) and have tried to start working out a little more. I am still planning to stay around 25lbs...what I put on must be taken off...the less the better!
•The Bump: I feel like I'm already at maximum capacity! I know I'm not THAT big but OMG, everything is shifted up and I can't breathe...I feel like I'm stretching so much. I was measuring slightly big at my last Dr's appt but I measured big the entire time with Emil so that didn't worry me much.
•Symptoms: Tired...always. But I think that's partially b/c little E's been teething and sleeping like crap, which means I have been too. But hopefully he'll sleep better tonight and I can get some sleep. What else...Huge?! Maybe a little swollen?
•Food Cravings: I was craving a big, fat, juicy cheeseburger. And since I have been pretty good the last week I decided to cave and made two tonight and had one... It was so good. It was dripping down my hands and I ate every single bite. SO GOOD.
•Anything Making Me Queasy: Nope. Thank God.
•Sleep: Well, it's been crap for the past week+. I'm tired...and uncomfortable. I need sleep...hoping tonight I'll get some much needed rest.
•What I miss: Being skinny....feeling skinny....looking skinny. (AMEN....keeping this from my previous post.)
•Weddings Rings: On
•Any Names Picked Out Yet: I still like Elias. E.J. doesn't really... He likes Armie. I don't. We are not sure yet. I'm calling him "Baby No-name."
•Gender Prediction: B-O-Y!
•Labor Signs: No, but I do get hella braxton hicks contractions. Guess I could've said that as a symptom.
•Movement: Yep...I love it. This is my favorite part about being pregnant:)
•Maternity Clothes: Pants yes, and pretty much all my tops NEED to be maternity. I just had to order some more stuff.
•Best Moment of the Week: Well, it's only Wednesday and I'm really tired so I can only think of recent stuff. Tonight at E.J.'s soccer game little E laid his sweet little head on me for a while and just stayed there...it was sweet. I love him:)
•What I’m excited about/looking forward to: Selling the house in NJ, having a good month at work, cleaning up some stuff around the house.... to name a few things.
