28 Weeks (7 months!)

* How far along?: 28 weeks, 12 to go!
* Total weight gain: Not sure, will find out Monday at the Dr. apt
* How big is baby?: 15 inches and 2-3 lbs!
* Sex: Baby Brianna
* Maternity clothes?: Well of course
* Stretch marks?: I seem to have sprouted one on each side of my waist, a continuation of my very old and faded ones :( Luckily, they are shorter than an inch in length still, please don't continue to grow little stretchies
* Sleep?: Crappy, my cat has decided to wake me up 3 times a night with his loud and obnoxious meows
* Best moment this week? Realizing I only have about 3 months to go!
* Movement?: She's pretty lazy in the mornings but at night it's a totally different story. There definitely is a pattern to her movement.
* Food cravings?: Nothing in particular this week
* Labor signs?: I believe I had my first Braxton Hicks contraction the other day, it was pretty uncomfortable
* Belly button in or out?: Still working its way out slowly, I don't think it will ever make it to a full "outie". My belly button pre pregnancy was pretty deep!
* What I miss: Being able to drink more than a glass of water before I need to run to the bathroom to pee
* What I'm looking forward to: Signing up for birthing and breastfeeding classes this week
* Words of Wisdom: Again nothing this week

I really need to start taking better pictures, these are horrible! And here is one of the bare belly just for fun. ;)

* Sex: Baby Brianna

* Maternity clothes?: Yes

* Stretch marks?: Still nothing thank goodness, please let's keep it that way

* Sleep?: Eh, OK I guess

* Best moment this week? Hitting the third trimester mark!

* Movement?: Not really increasing but definitely getting stronger

* Food cravings?: Spaghetti with lots of parmesan cheese, haha

* Labor signs?: None

* Belly button in or out?: Continuing to get stretched out and more shallow

* What I miss: Wearing non mat clothes, I miss my cute jeans and shirts and not feeling huge!

Absolutely Adorable Pyjamas

I found these tonight while looking at online baby boutiques. I think I might have to order a couple for the little one. Best of all, they are made of bamboo! I just love these! Who can resist a cute little baby in a footie and mitten pyjama?? I sure can't!

26 Weeks...A Few Days Late

* How far along?: 26 weeks
* Total weight gain: No idea
* How big is baby?: 13 inches and 1 2/3 lb!!
* Sex: Baby Brianna
* Maternity clothes?: Of course
* Stretch marks?: Nothing so far
* Sleep?: Not great but I think I am getting used to it
* Best moment this week? This definitely isn't the best moment but a moment that stands out in my mind. I was helping a customer at my desk and turned away to sneeze. Well let's just say not only did I let a little sneeze out, I peed a little too, so not cool. I guess I have lost control of my bladder :(
* Movement?: TONS! This little one likes to stretch out and kick! Yesterday I was sitting at my desk and for most of the day I had a pain in my side from her constant hard kicking. I can't believe how strong she is getting already!
* Food cravings?: Nothing really this week
* Labor signs?: None
* Belly button in or out?: Continuing to get stretched out and more shallow
* What I miss: Walking up the stairs at work and not being short of breath and feeling like I ran a marathon haha. I feel like the most out of shape person ever
* What I'm looking forward to: Packing this week and moving next weekend!! I will be at work so I won't actually need to move anything, yay!
* Words of Wisdom: Get the sleep in now, while it is still somewhat possible

Nursery Furniture

After weeks and weeks of trying to decide on what sort of furniture we like, we have decided that we are going to go with the Munire "Majestic" line. We know we like the flat-top lifetime crib (it converts to a full bed when baby is older) but are unsure about whether to get the combo or the extra-wide dresser. One thing is for sure, it will be in the espresso colour. I love this line so much, it will go great with our choice of baby bedding. :)

Here's a picture of the furniture we are looking at ordering.
