27 weeks

September 4, 2012
how far along: 27 weeks
Madelyn’s size: somewhere between 13.6-14.8 inches, 1.5-2.2 lbs… about the size of a rutabaga 
weight gain: 0 pounds this week, 18 pounds total
maternity clothes: Yes
stretch marks: None
sleep: Tossing and turning and having difficulty getting comfortable, but still sleeping pretty well
best moment this week: Making it to the 3rd Trimester!!!  Also, we asked David's best friend, Johnathan, and his wife, Katie, to be Madelyn's godparents, and they accepted!  It is so comforting to know that if anything ever happened to David and me, that Madelyn will have such wonderful people to take care of her. 
food cravings: I've been snacking and craving a lot of junk food the past couple of days
symptoms: Some Braxton Hicks contractions, cramping, round ligament pain, and my insatiable appetite returning :(
gender: Precious, baby girl!
belly button in or out: Barely in...Won't be much longer before it's completely out!
movement: Yes, lots and lots (There are daily dance parties in my tummy)
what I miss:  Nothing at the moment
what I'm looking forward to: Madelyn's upcoming shower, and  Marissa Grace's baptism...Both this weekend!!!

  2. Thank you so much! You are just too sweet! I know! I'm starting to get in panic mode a little bit, just knowing how much there is left to do and how little time we have left before she gets here! I am so excited though...I can't wait!
