Baby boy's doctors appointment

Everything looked good at my doctor’s appointment. My blood sugar test came out great and I have a really high white cell / good blood count (she said it was off the charts) so to continue to do whatever I’m doing. Not much weight gain since last month only two pounds (which puts me at 16 pounds of weight gain). My belly is measuring on target this time at 28 & 1/2 inches. Juliet always measured small so I was sent for additional tests with her.... We are starting to work on our house and the baby's room. Gary & John built another walk in closet in our room and dry walled the open wall between our room and the baby's room. The baby's room will have a penguin theme!  

 

28 weeks

My belly at 28 weeks! Feeling good just moving a little slower than normal. I think baby boy is side ways because I am getting kicked and punched on the sides of my stomach. I'm so excited to meet him!!!! It will be hard to wait 12 weeks. 

Juliet loves to paint!!! We even let her paint the garage because it washes off so easy. She can paint for hours!!! As for soccer Juliet says she does not like it :( but we will try and go back. She loves to play soccer with us in the back yard. She still likes gymnastics and says she wants to go to dance class (which we will start in a month) 

Juliet took this picture of me! I was impressed:)

Juliet's early b-day party at school :) 

27 weeks

27 week belly!!! I'll get a better shot from the side next week. My belly shots straight out so looking at me from the front you may not notice right away I'm pregnant but if I turn, it's all there! 13 more weeks, I can do this!!!! 

Juliet playing outside on a "hot" day, they have been far and few between this spring which is fine with me! I am hoping for a mild summer which is very rare in MD

At UNO's with nana, pop pop, mom and dad! She loves the make your own pizza

Juliet had a VERY early birthday party at her school. She loved the cupcakes and cool birthday hat! 

26 weeks :)

My belly at 26 weeks! I think I had my first case of heart burn this morning when I ate my breakfast sandwich. Fun!!! I didn't get much heart burn with Juliet but each pregnancy is different right? This guy is still kicking and flipping all the time hopefully he gets in the head down position soon because next week I am in my third trimester, yay!

25 Weeks - Key West - Juliet's Soccer

Here is a belly shot at 25 weeks! This baby is kicking me a lot and flipping all around sometimes he kicks me high and some times the kicks are very low. So far my ribs are in good shape because he seems to spreading out where he is kicking me unlike Juliet who always took rib shots. I am feeling pretty good. Since my belly is getting big it is getting harder to teach Zumba and I am getting tired more easily. I think I will have to give it up at the end of May but I am going to try and teach till then. I am up to 15 pounds for my weight gain so about the same as I was with Juliet. I see another 8 pound PLUS baby in my future!!!!

We are doing a 6 week Soccer class with Juliet in addtion to her gymnastics! She loved her first class and it was funny to watch her play soccer for the first time. For the first 5 minutes of class she ran around with the ball in her hands but soon learned to kick the ball. She even scored a couple goals when they played a quick practice game. She does sometimes get distracted and decided to "pick grass" instead of playing one of the games at the end. ha ha.

I am missing my 24 week photo because we were in Key West last week with some friends. Here are some picutes from our trip. No good belly pictures but we were having fun beaching it and going out on the town. I was the sober girl taking care of all those that had too much to drink but still had a blast and I can always have fun without drinking. I was up late dancing the night away!!!

The night of the 80's band - Lots of dancing!

Key West has very Yummy Cuban Food!
