A few updates for today…
-27 weeks (3rd trimester!) on Saturday. Bananas.
-Glucose fasting test this morning. Thank heavens that’s over. It wasn’t that bad, and yet it also sucked. The drink was clear, not orange, and tasted like Sprite (lemon-lime), but flat and syrupy instead of bubbly and refreshing. Results tomorrow, fingers crossed.
-Ultrasound went well, additional details and some new pictures are up over on the Turtle page. The bump actually looks smaller here than at 23 weeks. It’s got to be a little bigger because my stretch marks are out in full swing and I’ve gained about 5-7 lb.s since then, but it doesn’t really appear so.Here’s DH’s artistic interpretation of the bump pic:
-Nursery decoration is in full swing. We’re assembling the crib today. We’re going shopping for other furniture (namely a bookshelf and dresser) at Ikea this weekend. Hoping to have the room around 75% done in time for the baby shower.
-The baby shower! Is two weeks from Saturday. Family coming in from all over, friends coming in from all over, just going to be a low key affair at the house but I am so. excited. to celebrate this little life.
That’s all for now, folks. I know it’s pretty boring, but I kind of want to keep it that way!
Wow your husband is quite the artist!
That’s great that the pregnancy is boring. Keep it that way!
Woo hoo! DH is quite the artist! Looks like you are doing great. Glad to hear it, mama.
So glad things are progressing and are a tad boring- as they should be;)
Enjoy your shower and treasure every moment of this time!
All good stuff Shelley! Congrats on all these milestones!
Not a boring post at all! I especially got a kick out of your hubby’s drawing – so cute. And happy third trimester to the both of us!
