Bumpdate

*I took this picture last week and then never got around to posting! Oops!! 

How far along: 27 Weeks! Baby weighs 2 lbs and is about 14 1/2 inches long.
Sleep: So far so good! Still loving my snoogle pillow : )
Missing anything: Today I have my glucose test so I haven't had any sweets and it's all I can think about! I'm sure it wouldn't matter but I didn't want to chance it.
Food Cravings: I think my lime craving has tapered off somewhat. However, I am so THIRSTY all the time...so mostly craving ice water.
Food Aversions: I still don't want any fish...blech and any sort of balsamic salad dressing.
Symptoms: Within the past week or so I have started having swollen ankles at the end of the day. It's actually pretty funny. I came home one day and showed Chris and he just said, "whoa..." haha
Have you started to show yet: Definitely workin' the baby bump.
Happy or Moody: I would say happy!
Highlights: I have been feeling Cormac move a TON! I love laying in bed in the morning for a few minutes after my alarm goes off and just feeling him squirm all around. He moves around a lot when I first get into bed in the evening too. The other night, Chris and I just layed there and literally watched my tummy jump and move. It is such a sweet feeling...and pretty funny too. We keep joking that there is an alien in there!
Looking forward to: Making more progress in the nursery! We made some good headway last weekend and I am hoping for a snow day tomorrow so that we can get a few more things done!

Life Lately

Well, it won't be long now before we are in full baby mode so we have been busy making preparations for Cormac to come! The other day we went to Buy Buy  Baby and registered. That was quite the experience! I have to say that Chris was awesome and didn't complain once. However...

On Valentine's Day, Chris made us a wonderful dinner. I had parent/teacher conferences at school that day so he emailed me our menu for the evening. The menu did contain a disclaimer though. It said, "A drooling dog may be present during this romantic dinner. Unfortunately, this is unavoidable as he is owned by the restaurant owners." I laughed until I cried. So, so, funny. Chris did a little Pinterest research and cooked up a really yummy Italian chicken with veggies, spinach salad, and asparagus. It was so delicious. He even got us some sparkling cider to enjoy. 

And then for dessert we had two amazing cupcakes from Cupcake A La Mode. Chris also found an online deal so we were able to get them for a steal! We had Strawberries and Champagne and then Better Than ? Cupcake. Both made this preggo super happy : )
