28 Weeks - 3rd Trimester!


We finally made it to the last trimester!!! Feeling pretty good; definitely different, though. It is a bit harder to move around and the extra weight makes it harder to do most physical things. The air quality and heat are contributing to that.

Luke is very active now and lets me know every time he is moving! I just took the gestational diabetes test last week and had a checkup. I am in the high range for weight gain for 28 weeks, so I have to watch that as time marches on. The heat wave of 90's and 100's is not making exercise an option, so it is a lot of days of sitting indoors in the a/c with a glass of ice water. We still get outside to do tours at work, so that is some exercise I am able to achieve.

We have most of the major things Luke will need and are struggling to find a place to put it all. We have been incredibly blessed by donations and good deals at Target, and getting him what he needs was easier than we thought. Now if we can just figure out how to use it all!

August is the month of my baby shower, which I am very excited about. September will bring childbirth classes, a hospital tour, and hopefully cooler weather!
