Baby Talk- 27 Weeks

27 Weeks

The second trimester is coming to a close and the third is quickly approaching. It is less than 13 weeks until we meet our sweet baby girl. My schedule is filling up so fast, between Dr appointments, Brady's t-ball season beginning on Saturday, normal life stuff, and spring and summer activities picking up. This makes me so happy. I feel like the last trimester(which begins next week, Eek!) is going to be a whirlwind.

I notice I keep wanting to just relax and doing nothing during Brady's naptime. I know I should/could be getting so much done. I know naptimes won't be the same when baby girl comes, so I am soaking up every second of peace and quiet I can.

My sister took this picture at my moms house on Saturday. Front pictures make me feel better about myself. Ha Ha! I meant to take a side picture this week, but kept forgetting.

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 27 weeks

Size of baby: size of a head of cauliflower

Total Weight Gain/Loss: up about 12 lbs on my scale

Clothes: It is about 1/2 regular and 1/2 maternity, although the amount of regular clothes I am able to wear are decreasing.

Gender: Girl! Presley Lynn Barrett

Movement: Yes!

Sleep: I can't complain too much. I am so tired at the end of the day that I am able to fall asleep easily. Leg cramps, feeling uncomfortable, or going to the bathroom usually wake me, but it is manageable. I have been more uncomfortable this pregnancy, but I have also been more tired and had less energy than with Brady. It seems to all even out. :)

What I miss: eating without feeling miserable afterwards

Cravings: not really anything specific.

Symptoms: nothing new.

Best Moment this week: enjoying Easter with my family. The Easter bunny brought Presley a girly Boppy cover and my mom got her a sweet outfit this week. I found a couple of sweet things from Dillards for $4 each. Nothing super exciting, but they were only $4 and had been $30+. Girl shopping is fun, but oh so overwhelming. I can never decide on what to get. It is all so cute!

What am I looking forward to: my Dr. appointment next week.
