28 Weeks

Here I am with my growing belly at 28 weeks.  I'm officially into my 3rd and final trimester!  Yay!  I feel like I've been pregnant forever, and am honestly kind of bored with it at this point.  The newness has worn off and now I'm just anxious to hold my little guy. 

We've just barely started to get ready for baby.  We've had 7 months so far, and haven't done or bought anything in those 7 months so it's time to make up for all of that slacking.  Our next several weekends will be spent painting, putting together furniture, and setting things up. 

Overall I've been feeling really good.  But with that said, my back kills me at the end of the day, and I'm really tired of having to pee like every 30 minutes.  Everyone tells me that I look so cute and tiny, but I feel like a beached whale trying to get in and out of bed.

Shawn and I are still undecided on a name - I fear we may be in the delivery room before we actually settle on something.  For now, we just refer to him as "Junior".  I just hope the nickname doesn't stick!

You do look darling and I am twice as large, like 2 beached whales. I am the same size as the lady in the ward having twins.
It will go by soon enough though and then the sleepless nights start, so I can't tell what I want more, waking up to pee all night, or waking up to nurse. Yay for last trimester!

You are adorable! I'm so excited for y'all. I'm the same way, that last trimester is the worst and you just can't wait to see the baby! It'll be here before you know it. :)

You look like a huge fat beached whale! I can't believe you are still able to even walk! Can I just say "WOW!!!"

Just kidding! You know I love you! You are a way cute pregnant lady, especially in that shimmering silver shirt! HOT Momma!!!!

Carmen, you are super cute as always. (But honestly, a little bigger than I had expected.) I hear you, when the newness wears off it's not so much fun. My complaint this time around are the false contractions...really there is nothing false about them and I really don't like them. As time goes by they just get worse. Only two more weeks, only two more weeks.;)
