We thought it was the coolest thing to have my 27th birthday during our 27th week
How far along? 27 weeks, 4 days
Maternity clothes: A mix...needing to get creative with my closet because I'm getting bored, especially with work clothes. I think this calls for a trip to goodwill...that will force me to go through everything and figure some new combinations out!
Stretch marks: The same. I did see this week a tiny blue mark on my hip...fingers and toes are crossed that it fades!
Sleep: Terrible this week. The bed at our condo is not pregnant friendly...or really husband friendly for that matter. Can't wait to get home to my own bed!

Best moment this week: Relaxing at the beach with Daniel and his parents; Celebrating my 27th birthday; Reading everyone's wishes for my health and for my birthday.
Miss Anything: Walking as fast as Daniel. I seriously cannot keep up anymore! My mom would LOVE shopping with me right now!!!

Movement: He is a crazy baby...but we love it! Daniel especially loves watching the head or butt "windshield wiper" across the tummy. It is hilarious! Also this week he had his first case of hiccups...and they haven't stopped since! I swear he gets them twice daily now, but it is so cute to watch my stomach flutter to a rhythm.
Symptoms: Mood swings (not in a bad way...just more happy, then sentimental tears that I of course blame the hormones for!); Unquenchable thirst; Swelling (booooo!!); Ridiculously sore hips; and hot flashes.
Food cravings: Most of the same. Seafood and ice cream, protein, fruit, yogurt, and crackers.
Anything making you queasy or sick: The usual.

Have you started to show yet: No, I just swallowed a watermelon.
Gender: Bouncing baby BOY!
Labor Signs: Nada.

Belly Button in or out?: OUT!
Wedding rings on or off: Off mostly this week because of swelling from the flight and the heat, but on whenever I can get them (I wore them on my pinky finger on the plane because I couldn't bear to part with them in my carry-on!
General Mood: Good most days...but others are a little more anxiety filled which makes me teary. I suppose since I have been in a fairly good/happy mood for the whole pregnancy thus far, it isn't too bad to get a bit "hormonal" now toward the end. :)
Best advice this week: Just to relax, and that it will all work out. We have been so blessed to have the help and love from family and friends. Got to hear some funny stories from when Mrs. Gilbert had the twins in her belly.

Worst advice this week: Nothing really.
Exercise: Two words...vacation mode!
Looking forward to: So many exciting things in August and September! Relaxing and enjoying Daniel's company for these last ten weeks while we are still a two-person family.
