I am a little behind on my pregnancy updates. I am really enjoying being pregnant besides the weight gain, backaches, and now swelling in my legs, BUT I feel great. I love feeling our little boy move- what a amazing experience this has been so far. :)

How far along? 27 weeks and 3 days

Total weight gain: 20-25 pounds
Maternity clothes? Yes. Maternity bottoms- I really thought I could make it to the end without them. I finally had to cave and purchase some maternity scrub bottoms for work- I bum around most of the time in yoga pants, but I really need some maternity jeans for going out.
Stretch marks? none! :)
Sleep: Yes, so sleepy lately. I have been getting to bed around 930-10 because I am so exhausted. I wake up 4-5 times nightly to pee...that is getting old my friends. 
Best moment this week: Baby boy kicked my ribs! It hurts- but made me so happy.
Miss Anything? Working out and being able to wear my jeans.
Movement: all the time. kicks, punches, sometimes a weird roller-coaster feeling (I think that may be him turning or rotating completely).
Food cravings: CAKE!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing
Gender: BOY
Labor Signs: None.
Symptoms: back pain, swelling in my legs when I've been on them too long.
Belly Button in or out? in
Wedding rings on or off? on
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy and tired.
Looking forward to: Hitting the third trimester mark!

Gifts for the BABE!

Since little man is due to arrive in late November- its freezing here in Michigan. I am so happy I found this and plan to bring him home from the hospital in it. Ah- love the ears on the hood. :)

 Dan's sister and brother in law sent this awesome rocker and Sophie the teething Giraffe to us all the way from Tennessee! What a nice surprise!! We love them both already and can't wait to use them!
