Week 27

This week Baby Sonny is roughly 15 inches from head to toe and weighs just over 2 pounds.  He is roughly the size of a cucumber.  Baby Sonny is continuing to fill out by adding more fat.  His immune system is also maturing and he continues to practice breathing.  His auditory system is developing and the network of nerves to his ears is maturing.  His taste buds are continuing to mature as well.

Last Friday I received a lot of compliments.  I was told about a dozen times that I am a cute pregnant lady.  It was a fantastic Friday.  I loved it, thanks a bunch!

Friday also marked the end of Jeff's first semester of pharmacy school.  On Saturday we went to an end of the semester party and we both had a lot of fun.  It was nice to relax and get to know a few more of Jeff's friends from school.  On Sunday I went shopping with my mom, something we both excel at :)

Tomorrow Jeff and I are checking out another daycare center.  Then we have an OB appointment and I have my glucose challenge test.  Suzanne is coming tomorrow night and then Jeff and Suzanne are off to Kiawah!  I'm jealous but I will be joining them (and Matt, Hannah, and Baby Girl T) a few days later.

The past week or so I have felt really pregnant.  When I sit in a chair my belly reaches my sternum and it's difficult to sit up for too long.  It's also difficult for me to stand for long periods of time.  When I bend over to pick something up (I'm clumsy) my belly gets in the way.
