Pregnancy Update - Week 28

How far along - 28 weeks

Maternity clothes - Bottoms are all maternity except for some yoga pants and sweatpants...most tops are non maternity, though I am LOVING my Old Navy nursing tanks!  Don't know why I didn't buy them with Little M.  They are so long and great for layering!

Weight gain - Holding steady at 28lbs, hopefully the weight gain will taper off now.  With Little M I only put on 5 lbs the whole 3rd trimester

Stretch marks - none thank the Lord!  I'm determined to still be able to wear a bikini again!

Belly button - It wants to pop out so bad

Sleep - Love sleep.  Apparently my iron levels are even lower than when my doctor put me on iron pills a few weeks ago, so I'm really anemic.  At least that explains why I'm tired all the freakin' time...I'm not just being lazy!

Best moment this week - Finally ordered the crib...wahoo!

Movement -All the time.  This baby is going to be a kung fu master.  Sometime it is moving around so much it makes me really nauseous!

Foods I'm loving - Yogurt, candy, pizza, sandwiches

Foods I'm hating - Chicken is iffy....can't eat alot of anything in one sitting, my stomach is squished!

Symptoms - Nausea, still....I should have bought stock in Zofran!  Exhaustion, face breaking out, a little swelling at night, nesting in full force now!

Gender - I should have been more specific last time.  We found out the gender but are keeping it a secret until the birth!

What I'm looking forward to - Seeing my Marine's Girls this weekend!!  L is pregnant also {due exactly 3 weeks before me!} with her first and we are heading down to go to her shower.  Can't wait to see them!

What I miss - Bending over and being able to comfortably tie my own shoes

Milestones - Third trimester!!!

Emotions - Between General Hospital and Army Wives last night I am just crying all the time!

    Where are the belly pictures?! Those are my favorite part!! I love your little belly! Hurray for baby cribs! For some reason getting the crib was so exciting for me. It meant that it was really time to start decorating baby's room! I am going to have to remember to buy some of those nursing tanks the next time I'm pregnant!

    Wow, you totally made me remember how crazy exciting it is, counting down the pregger days. My 1st one didn't move around at all, but #2 was a kung fu master too. I blame him for my outtie. Good luck and feel good!

Spring Giveaway!

First off I want to thank Kim over at Life As I Know I t for becoming my 100 th follower! I love her blog and just know we would hang out all the time if she didn't live across the country. I am completely humbled that 100 people actually want to read what I have to say! Blogging has opened up a whole new world of friendships to me and I would probably not have kept doing it if it was not for all of you! Okay, now it's down to the good stuff. I am *dying* for a little spring around here. We had a few days of warmth and sunshine, but for the past three days it has been raining...again....I heard they have even mobilized our National Guard in case the rivers decide to really get out of hand...you know more than the crazy flooding they've already been doing. Anyways, one of my favorite things to do to get ready for spring is to paint my nails a fun, bright color. So today I am giving away these beauties. One lucky reader will win all four of these fabulous colors! I g...

$50 CSN Giveaway!!

As you all know, I have raved about my love of CSN stores several times before.  They have a huge selection of products and are constantly adding new stores to their website.  My family definitely headed over there to do some of our Christmas shopping, and I was just perusing their selection of flat panel TV stands.      It's one thing, however, for me to tell you how great CSN is.  But it's another for you to experience it yourself.  That is why I am so excited to be sponsoring a $50 gift certificate giveaway to CSN to one of my readers!!!  It's the perfect opportunity to order yourself something you didn't receive for Christmas, or check out their fitness equipment to help with your new year's resolution! Entering is simple...just leave a comment telling me what your new year's resolution is {you can also just say you aren't making any this year if that's the case!}  The giveaway will be open until January 7th 10:00 pm est.
