(I almost labeled this post “28 weeks” because I forgot how far along I am, ha!)
Baby size: about the size of a butternut squash, or so the internet tells me
Sleep: pretty good, aside from when zu or june wakes me up–i’ve been worn out lately with all the settling-in after the move
Foods I am loving: salad, fish, mostly healthy stuff–except i can’t stop craving chocolate poptarts, the worst thing anyone could possibly eat! do they even qualify as food?
Foods I am hating: anything that especially causes heartburn since i have heartburn all the time anyway
Best moment this week: getting the house finally put together. it was good to empty out that last box, hang the last picture on the wall, put up curtains. now the house feels like Ours–can’t wait to start making happy memories there
Movement: yes, she’s very active, especially at night! zu likes to feel wendy moving around–she tells me that wendy kicks because she loves her big sister =)
Symptoms: this pregnancy has been the worst for hip-pain (i hear it gets worse each pregnancy?? hopefully not). i had a few days where i felt bad because i did too much the day before–its hard not to overdo it when there is so much to be done!
What I’m looking forward to: sitting around the breakfast table and seeing 3 pretty little girls smiling back at me
Emotions: sometimes i start to feel a little anxious about bryan’s job search, so i have to be careful not to let my emotions get out of control. i also am a little self-conscious about my very extremely pregnant belly right now–which is probably why i keep forgetting to take “belly pictures” (they just don’t seem quite as “cute” with the 3rd baby, hummm…..). but here’s a picture from my sister’s wedding last week (*hint*: a bouquet has to be a lot more substantial to cover 3rd trimester baby-belly…)
You and your sisters look great. 🙂 You *should* do a little maternity photo shoot for Wendy before she arrives, though–you look beautiful whether it’s your first baby or your third! She might like having the photos later. 🙂 I don’t think I have a single picture of my mom when she was pregnant with me–it just wasn’t done back then–but I wish I did!

i guess i did one for zuzu and june so it would be sad for wendy not to have one–i feel too self-conscious at this point though to really enjoy it. maybe i can just have bryan take a picture this week and in a couple weeks from now, so she’ll at least have those
