Bump updates - Week 26 and 27

Camping at Devil's Lake, Wisconsin on Memorial weekend we passed the 26 week mark. I didn't want to post this picture as I'm hot and sweaty from hiking (it was SERIOUSLY hot and humid with serious hiking/climbing) and look bigger than I thought I did in real life.... That happens a lot with pictures these days! But... I'll be a good sport. One day I will post a bump picture where I'm not just finishing a workout!




27 weeks update - one more week until the third trimester! It has been a rainy Saturday so I spent the morning kind of organizing part of Shrimpy's "room" - aka corner of the dining room! Is that nesting??? I'm just trying to clear out stuff - mainly kitchen stuff - so that we can use our shelving to hold stuff for the baby. We have stacks of diapers we are beginning to accumulate (the BSM of baby at SUPERVALU is a friend!) and I'm not sure where those will go...... especially size 3 and 4 which we are a ways from.



It's so fun sorting through Shrimpy's clothes - I'm getting pretty excited! The only setback to that excitement was thinking I wanted to watch a live birth on BabyCenter - I'd rather just go into it a little blind I've decided! Hence, I am forgoing the birthing classes - I'm just going to take it as it comes!

Not too much new has been happening with the pregnancy. My biggest complaint is my skin - I've had more acne than my entire adolescence so that has been frustrating. I'm still working out 5-7 days a week with step class, riding bikes, walking, elliptical and all that so hoping that continues. I'm slowly getting bigger as well but it has not been too bad. In general, the whole experience is pretty cool - I will admit I'm counting the weeks down until I can start slowly regaining my body back! The most fun thing has been feeling the baby move, although it worries me that I don't feel a lot of movement! I want to feel him kicking - it makes me know everything is okay.

Lastly, we are still working on a name for Shrimpy but I'm really thinking it will be Samuel - he just feels like a Samuel to me!
