THIRD TRIMESTER!!!! 27 WEEKS!!!

We are

IN OUR THIRD TRIMESTER!!!!!

Yes. Yes. Yes!

Today marks 27 weeks pregnant :)

WAHOOOOO!!!

We are on the downward slope to meeting our baby girl now! :) I can hardly stand waiting, hehe!


There's the 27 weeks belly shot. (And on a side note: HOLY CRAP. Look how much weight I have gained in my butt/thighs LOL I didn't realize it til looking at this picture!! EEK.)

But I'm so happy with how much she is growing! So thankful and I feel so blessed to have made it this far! :) According to 'The Bump' she is the size of a rutabaga. She is about 13.6-14.8" long and about 1.5-2.2lbs. We have an ultrasound March 2nd so we will know more accurate measurements soon. I can't wait! We are going for my birthday... and we are hitting up bd Mongolian Grill before hand. SO STOKED! 

We are finally getting things done for Quinn too! Her room is completely painted. We just have to add trim and I need to put up some wall decorations (I think we are going with black and white pictures for those!) Her car seat is ready to be installed. Her swing is cleaned as well as her play toys and her boppy. I am just getting so excited! :)

We have about 70-91 days left to go (10-13 weeks!) Doesn't even seem real that she could be here that quickly! Heck-- I can't even believe I am writing a blog about being in the 3rd trimester already. It's going quick!

Alright, now for some questions!

How far along? 27 weeks
Total Weight Gain? I think it was 15 pounds last time I checked?
Maternity Clothes?  Yes! Still wearing some pre-preggo shirts, but definitely maternity pants, haha!
Stretch Marks? Yes, but I keep telling myself it is for a beautiful reason!
Sleep?  I struggled this week. I just can't seem to get comfy any more. 
Best Moment of This Week:  Tayler recognizing the baby in my belly more and more :) 
Miss Anything? Comfortable sleep. Having a stiff drink after a stressful day LOL!!!
Movement? Oh yes! She is super active. I love it!
Food CravingsSalt and Vinegar Chips. Fries/Honey Mustard from The Depot. I STILL haven't got that though!
Anything Make You Queasy/Sick?  Poopy diapers. Trash. BLEH.
Gender: GIRL!! :) Our Quinn Makenzie!
Labor Signs? No thank the Lord! :)
Symptoms: Constant peeing. Back pain. And lovely braxton hicks :)
Belly Button In or Out? She's an innie.... for now, haha! Slowly starting to protrude haha!
Weddings Rings On Or Off? On for now! :)
Happy or Moody this week? Very happy! :)
Looking Forward To:  Our ultrasound March 2nd! Not looking forward to my glucose test February 13th! :( But I know it has to be done LOL

Happy 27 weeks... on to 28 weeks!
