27 Week Update

Also known as How I Spent My Spring Break

How far along? 27 weeks 2 days---Baby is due in 90 days!!
How big is baby? 14.5 inches long, 2 pounds
Weight Gain? 15 pounds
Stretch Marks? nope just some light spider veins on the belly...nothing too noticable though
Maternity Clothes? Suggest a new question for me to answer here please ;)
Sleep? Beginning to become more uncomfortable...I woke up around 4 this morning because of a very strange dream.
Best moment of the week? With my mom's help (she bought the dresser, the bookcase, and the stain for it), we finished Ebbie's room as far as furniture goes. I should really say everything in there is from my mom either for Christmas or an advance gift for my shower except the sofa--which is in there by default since I decided it did not fit properly in our new living room when we moved.

Check out the finished product--Bookshelf and dresser stained by me and mom (with a little help from my housemate Danielle)
There are pictures of this from maybe 4-7 weeks ago before it was stained. I threw a few toys on there so it would not look bare. I am hoping to get some kid books at my shower. Of course once this was all done we had to fill it up. I have a drawer for diapering supplies (wipes, spray, rash cream, etc), a drawer for cloth diapers (see below)and the other 7 drawers are filled with hand me downs we already recieved, sizes Newborn through 6-9 months. There are more clothes in his closet in bigger sizes, I only washed and stored the ones he's be using the soonest, as he grows out of them I will store them in bins and refill the drawers with appropriate sized clothes. It was exciting to do all that baby wash :) This is how I sorted it before putting it away--Yep it all fit!!!
Food Cravings? strawberries
Gender? Boy--still no name, I am afraid that may be the answer until we meet him at the hospital!
Movement? Stronger and more frequent everyday. He likes to chill on my right side so I feel kicks and jabs mostly on the left.
What I miss? My back not hurting from bending over!! I'm feeling HUGE lately!!


Here is the bedding I'd like to get to pull the room together (along with some of the coordinating decorations)

  1. Love the bedding! It's so fun to watch as you go through your pregnancy via your blog, since we don't get to see each other that often! :)
