28 weeks!








On April 19, 2009, we watched and enjoyed as my little cousin Jillian got married in San Ramon. Posted are some photos from the special occasion.


Currently, I am 28 weeks along. Just this last week I started to feel more drained and tired. I get home from work and I instantly crash on the couch. My bed is full of pillows...David never thought a person could sleep with so many...but the pillows do serve many purposes. I just bought a long body pillow..yeah! That's great for my back...then I have this special wedge pillow that fits under my belly...I need 2-3 pillows for my head, and one for my back when I sleep on my side. I'm sure you really wanted to know all that...but it's what a pregnant woman needs!


We also finished up our registry...Babies R Us...That was fun...it's a bit addicting going online and changing things...Thanks to those who gave me some tidbits of things I needed to add to make it complete :)


I met my "new" midwife last week that will be following me through until I deliver...Kaiser WC has a team of midwives so you never know who will be on staff when you actually go into labor. I really like my midwife that I'm seeing for my prenatals...she knew exactly where her butt and head were just by feeling..wow! Baby is still a bit sideways and enjoys kicking me mostly on my lower left side. I felt the "hiccups" I think a couple of nights ago...every few seconds there was a popping sensation in the same spot...again...and again...and again. Moments like those make me smile and really get excited for what's to come :)


I'll post more up close belly pics soon. Other than that, we are doing good...and we picked a name. I'll let those of you who don't know take a guess. To make it a little easier...it starts with an "A" and has 3 syllables :)


***To the first person that guesses correctly and who didn't know before...you win! I'll think of what you win once that person gets back to me. Hehe. Good luck! ;)
