Baby #3…. 3rd Trimester

Seriously, this process draaaaaaaaaaaaged on up until the 20 week ultrasound and now it is totally flying by. Last week we hit double-digit days and now today we are 27 weeks, aka in the third trimester.

Overall I can say physically I'm feeling pretty good right now. Apparently she is laying right in my back and is posterior right now so I'm having some trouble again with my nerves in my lower back like I did with the boys. I'm hoping to go see a chiropractor soon to help out. I haven't been writing or doing anything creative lately at all though. I feel like I am kind of hibernating. I literally got my camera in my hands the other day for the first time in months around the house. I am pretty tired and not sleeping great (lovely pregnancy insomnia again) so after I get the boys handled throughout the day, my job taken care of, dinner on the table, etc., I really haven't had anything else in me to process extra stuff. I find myself regretting not writing so many details here. This blog has served as my memory for so long and I know I am leaving way too much out consistantly. We are getting ready for Carson's 6th birthday party AND Easter this weekend, but it will all be fun.

The biggest thing that has happened recently is that I ditched my OB and found an amazing midwife birthing center. I have had such a change of heart and mind this time around and was disgusted at how my OB treated the whole process. Apparently when you are having your third child you aren't supposed to have any questions or concerns. Whatever. I am now so insanely excited to have our baby girl at the birth center in the water without any drugs this time. I'm doing tons of prep and reading and I just hope everything works out how I envision.

Let's also just say that shopping for pink and getting to say NO to the question, "do you need a gift receipt" has been about the most fun thing in a while. We are definitely stocked up for 0-3 and past that we'll handle as it comes.

I'm still keeping up with my weekly belly selfies. Here is my first at 14 weeks through my 25th and then today's photo at 27. She is sitting so low and in the back that I'm not rounding out up top much yet.
This morning made me laugh. I looked in the mirror and realized how crooked my belly was. It is seriously totally over to one side!

Recent stuff of the boys…..
We found Max this baby sister book at the library and it is his total favorite. He asks to read it at nap and bedtime almost every single day now. Aside from that time he is in total denial about my pregnancy and won't even acknowledge it if you ask him about it. LOL

Mr. Carson is on a shirt and tie kick. He only has a few ties and asks to wear them to school like every other day. I finally found one at Target the other day in the boys dept that is for 8-10 year olds so it isn't so short on his ridiculously long torso. I thought everyone says boys don't care about what they wear! This kid sure has an opinion.

My non-baby baby.

Carson has a girrrrrlfriend! This started as Amelia chasing and tackling him (like here after chess club) and has now developed in them exchanging phone numbers and have little phone conversations. They are so insanely cute.




I have much more of our trips to Carmel and San Francisco, but like I said with my lack of doing anything extra, I haven't even gone through most of the photos. I'll have to play catch up here soon.
