Week 28

This week was a long one. I was able to volunteer Tues and Wed. and even though it's only for a few hours each day, I definitely need a nap when I get home lol. Thursday one of the Coastie wives and myself tried to start sewing some things for Raelin's room but decided it was a better activity to do at the beginning of the week instead of the end. Hopefully we will be more rested and my mind is a bit more clear. Pregnancy brain makes you forget everything, all the time lol :P

Thursday night I went to this "Mocktail Party" which was a party for new moms and moms-to-be. They showed us how to practice hands on swaddling techniques, baby massage, baby wearing, and calming, as well as simple yoga breathing for relaxation. It was really fun, learned a lot and met some nice ladies.

                                    

What's Raelin up to this week?!?!

Well when I told Trev he described it back to me as... Raelin was jumping on my bladder, kicking my ribs and playing jump rope with her umbilical cord, LoL! He is too funny.

So she is the size of a head of lettuce this week, and weighing in at about 2 1/4lbs. She is developing billions of neurons in her brain and adding on more body fat in preparation for life in the outside world. She has eye lashes now too.

(my pic of a head of lettuce, lol)

How's Trev doing?!?!

Well he's in port right now, in NYC for a bit so I am able to talk to him on the phone. He's doing well and happy to be on land for a couple days. He's went and had sushi and enjoyed a movie while in NYC, trying to keep it low key so when we get a chance to go together we can go see big things like the World Trade Center Memorial and the Statue of Liberty.

This upcoming week will be a busy one. Going to try and get some sewing done, volunteer, my first hypnobirthing class :) and more stuff in Raelin's room.

Trying to stay busy while Trev is gone has been difficult and while I have many projects in the works for the baby's room I have also been doing some shopping and have found sooo many great deals on clothes I think we may need a second closet :P Everything is just too darn cute to pass up though.

 Hope everyone has a great week and I'm excited to share this upcoming week of events with everyone :)

Oh and real quick wanted to thank everyone for the comments, Trev and I enjoy reading them and love to hear what you think. I try and add as much dancing food as possible but some time it's not available so I have to get creative....hence the picture for this week :P
