Welcome to the 3rd Trimester - Baby H - Week 27

I can't believe this week starts the 3rd trimester! It feels like I just found out we were expecting yesterday.
Once we had our gender ultrasound, time has flown by. I can hardly believe it's June...

Which brings me to the next chapter of my pregnancy - not the third trimester but more of the - where is the air conditioning and the bathroom? My ankles are already swelling, my rings barely fit (I am just wearing my bands now) and my bathroom breaks have become ridiculous. 8 times in 7 hours during the night has been my record so far. BUT, I would not change it for the world!

Baby girl is SO active now! This week she has started kicking in two different parts of my tummy simultaneously. What is she doing in there? She is a busy, busy girl!  :) I am loving every minute of it. I took a video for Jimmy to see from the outside the other day - pretty amazing to think there is a human growing inside me. God is so good!

Life for us has been busy, too. It must be my the nesting mode I am in. We have replaced all our window treatments in the kitchen with new vertical blinds and wood blinds over the kitchen sink and side windows. It looks so much better. My amazing parents spent the entire weekend completing the project for us. They are so awesome!

Other projects around the house include our new bathroom vanity being installed. What a difference!
We are having new carpet installed in a couple of weeks in our lower level which I'm also pumped for. And the last part will be painting the upstairs bathroom, master bedroom and the nursery. My bedding was delivered so now I just need the paint on and the furniture. I hope to have the nursery project started/done by middle of July so I can spend the last month of my pregnancy relaxing!
Jimmy has been working every chance he gets on the yard, tearing down old trees, planting hostas, etc. etc. Lots going on...and happy to have it completed before baby comes.

Last weekend we spent all day Saturday and most of Sunday at a childbirth class. The days were long but we are really happy we signed up for it (Jimmy changed his first diaper on a doll LOL). We learned a lot and although it is very scary it also makes me super excited. We got a tour of MG Hospital and it is gorgeous and I feel much more prepared.

Next Dr appointment is next week and I will be getting a couple of shots. Then I see the Dr every 2 weeks. I have been feeling MUCH bigger and hoping it slows down a bit through the summer. Either way, thankful for this miracle inside me!

Love,
Kristin
