26 Week Update

Today we went to the Scandinavian Day Festival.  I wanted to take a bunch of pictures, but I forgot.  Typical.  I was mostly interested in the food.  We got a big platter of fried herring, potatoes, sausages, sharp cheddar, cucumber salad, bread, sour cream and green onions.   My mother in law got the Swedish Meatballs with egg noodles.  It was all so delicious.  I meant to take a picture but only remembered about 3/4 of the way through my food.  I'm 6 months pregnant, food doesn't last very long around me.  

How far along:  26 weeks.

Size of Baby:   A scallion?  These food comparisons are really annoying.  1 2/3 pounds, 14 inches long. 

Gender:  Boy

Weight Gain:  We shall see on Monday! 

Maternity Clothes:  Nope, I'm back in my skinny jeans already.  Oh wait, what?

Nursery:  This is starting to make me nervous.

Movement:  Going strong, Aaron got to feel him kick very hard the other day and I think he was surprised by the strength of the baby already.

Symptoms:  Having some hip pain that has me limping around or maybe it's more of a waddle.  In either case, I want to get back to the gym.  Most of my aches and pains can be gently exercised away. 

Cravings:  Stupid sugar. 

What I Miss:  Bending down easily.  Haha.

Looking Forward To:  On the first day it's cold enough, I'm getting myself a pumpkin spice latte.  I only drink one a year and I'm waiting until the moment is right.  

Okay.  Long weekend.  I'm going to bed!
