Week 28!!

So... I was going to wait to post this until I got a picture, but I haven't had time yet this week. And I don't want to post too late. :D Especially since I wasn't anywhere near a computer on Monday, so I'm late anyway! I will endeavor to take a picture, but if I do not, I'll make sure next week has lots of pictures again! Haha.

12 Weeks Left!

80 days left!

In my 28th week I feel like my milestones are over, and I just wait out this third trimester counting down the weeks that seem to never end. :/ It seems like a lot of unbearable waiting for her to come, while being mostly miserable.

I sometimes get an infection in my lymph-nodes in my intestines, and it's sorta achy painful (it isn't a side-effect of pregnancy, it's just something that happens to me). Anyway, she was totally kicking the heck out of it this morning and it felt SO AWESOME, like she was massaging me. Haha. That was interesting and fun. She's already helpful. :D

Also, so many of my very dear friends came back Monday (some of them just to immediately go, whether home for the summer or off to new adventures). It was a time of great happiness, but also extremely exhausting, part because we were up at 5 am to see them arrive, and part because carrying this growing girl is tiring. In any case, it was extremely joyful!! :D
