I love looking at photography sites and when I saw these pictures pop up in my facebook feed I fell in love. Lisa is my great grand little from the good ol' Alpha Chi Omega house. She is the sweetest girl and I'm so happy for her upcoming marriage. They used Aubrey Marie Photography for their engagement photos, and if you are like me, you will want to click over to AMP's blog to see more images from their session. All of the images are beautiful and Lisa is absolutely gorgeous!

Bumpdate: 27 weeks

Um, holy moly. When did I get so big?!

I have been delaying this post to get a picture taken by Ty, but with his schedule it just isn't going to happen. So, we'll go with lovely self-portraits in the bathroom.

How Far Along: 27 weeks

Total Weight Gain: 16 lbs

Maternity Clothes: ALL maternity pants. Dresses are now mostly maternity. Mostly regular tops, but I think it is time to invest in a few more maternity tops to get me through.

Gender: Boy! Our little flapjack!

Movement: Lots of movement. He is all over the place and the newest thing is him hitting a nerve and feeling like he has shocked me. It is so strange.

Sleep: Sleeping through the night except for bathroom breaks and snack breaks. I've been getting so hungry!

What I miss: Running--who am I?? Feeling skinny. I'm starting to be able to tell where I am gaining weight and it is not pretty.

Cravings: Cereal, fruit, flavored lemonade, pickles on my sandwiches. I had the best burger ever at Braum's last week. I could go for another one of those!

Other crazy symptoms: The constant feeling of needing to go to the bathroom. I can tell when he is going through a growth spurt thanks to those lovely growing pains. I'm working on curtains for his room and I am feeling large and in charge crawling around the living room floor making measurements and cutting. Thankfully, my mom came to visit and helped me finish them.

Best Moment this week: Finding out that my best friend from high school is having a little boy too! Getting the glider in and the curtains hung. It is really starting to look like a nursery.

Bumpdate: 25 weeks

How Far Along: 25 weeks

Total Weight Gain: 14 lbs

Maternity Clothes: ALL maternity pants. Dresses are now mostly maternity. Mostly regular tops with a few maternity mixed in.

Gender: Baby boy: Jack!

Movement: He moves so much! I know I don't have anything to compare it to, but I feel like he is moving all the time now. He's all over the place too. Today I felt him move almost right under my breasts. I didn't even know he could get up that high!

Sleep: Sleeping through the night except for bathroom breaks.

What I miss: Nothing that I can really think of this week.

Cravings: Cereal is the most consistent thing. I have enjoyed a lot of Lucky Charms this week.

Other crazy symptoms: I feel like this list grows every week. Have I mentioned my fuzzy stomach? It's covered in blonde peach fuzz. Some sciatic pain, general growing pains, etc. Still have strong pains at the top of my uterus. Sometimes the pain is an awful burning sensation. The urge to go to the bathroom can come on strong! I can only imagine what it will be like the bigger he gets.

Best Moment this week: I love, love feeling Jack move, but it is even cooler when I can actually see him move. I love watching my stomach ripple and jerk with his movement!
