27 weeks


nearly to the end of the second trimester and feeling more energy on most days.  still blaming the lack of energy on the cold weather.  when the sun shines i get a burst of "nesting" energy and suddenly want to get *everything* done.  unfortunately, that just doesn't happen with a three-year old and an 18 month old hanging out with me all day...but that's okay, too.
baby now should weigh around 2 lbs and be about 14.5 inches long.

maternity quiz
maternity clothes: still just shirts.  tried the maternity jeans on again to see if they fit better than my low-rise jeans and decided that was not the case just yet.  i'm okay with this.
sleep: fighting my now-typical pregnancy congestion.  this time around i have invested in some "breathe-right" strips that seem to help immensely.
best moment this week: feeling this baby become more active.  i love baby kicks!
cravings: donuts!  especially when i am at work.
what i miss: my energy.  it's better that it was in the first trimester, but i'm still more tired these days.
what i'm looking forward to: not looking forward to the test, but i'm ready to pass my upcoming glucose tolerance test.  i always feel so much better once that thing is done with!
weekly wisdom: this little one is another blessing.  don't get stressed!
milestones: celebrated my birthday with the family.  realized this was the first time i've ever been this pregnant during my birthday.
