Helloooo third trimester!
(I love Owen's photo bomb in this one!)
Along: 28 weeks! I can't believe I'm this far along already... I feel like I am saying that all the time, that and how much I can't believe Owen has grown up! Time just goes by too fast...
Size of Baby: Baby 2 is now 17 inches long and about 3 pounds. He is almost as long as he will be at birth, but not quite there in weight. He will start to really pack on the pounds in these last two months.
Gender: BOY! We have not decided on a name yet, but have decided that we are not going to share the name until he makes his arrival!
Sleep: I am still sleeping like a rock and rarely even wake up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night. I know, I'm lucky!
What I Miss: Being able to move around easily. With this big belly sticking out it is hard to get in and out of the car when another car is parked close, or just move around in general. I'm in the middle of packing up my classroom, so moving around to do that has been annoying too. Luckily I have some super sweet boys in my class who help me out a ton!
Cravings: Milk, chocolate, ice cream... anything sweet. I craved the same things with Owen. This pregnancy my cravings/food aversions have not been as intense as they were with Owen. I don't have any weird cravings or severe food aversions that I had with him... yet!
Symptoms: Eating more... which is fun! A little heart burn here and there, which is one thing I never had with Owen. My back has not been hurting nearly as much as it did with Owen. I think this is somewhat due to my weight gain. I gained more with Owen by this point than I have with Baby 2 so far. Overall, this has been a super easy and enjoyable pregnancy!
Best Moment this Month: We are almost finished with Baby 2's nursery. Jimmy surprised me one day and when I came home from work he had already painted the room! He said he knew I would have tried to help and didn't think I should be painting at 7 months pregnant. We also got the furniture, hung curtains, and put up some cute decals. There are still some things we need to buy before we are fully ready, but it's a huge start.

We wanted to mimic Owen's room, but make it his own too. So, he has the same color furniture, but a different style, and the same wall in Owen's room is painted blue, and they both will have the cute decals on the walls! The jack and jill bathroom adjoining the two rooms is a sea theme, so we thought sea turtles would tie everything in!
I hope everyone is enjoying their start to the summer. I know we are!
Love,
Judi
