28 Weeks

How far along: 28 weeks and 1 day 

Total weight gain/loss: Up 4 lbs the last two weeks, so 23 lbs total. (Thanks to all that amazing Cuban food in Miami....hopefully some of that is just water weight...) :(

Maternity clothes? Yes, although still wearing some non-maternity though. Nothing maternity in the pic above. My sweet friends the Spragis' gave me that jersey when Hubby and I got married (It says Mrs Jacobs on the back :))

Sleep: Sleep has still been awesome but I hear it is going to be getting more and more difficult here in a bit. 

Best moment(s) this week: This was a pretty good week. One best moment was Saturday the Todd Bonvillians came over to watch dem tigahs whip up on Washington (41-3 I might add!) Les and the kiddos also spent the night. Dellie is all about Trey, going into his room and looking at all his things and touching my tummy. She crawls up in my lap and wants to put her little hands on my tummy and says "lili, I feel him moving!!" She is too funny. Also finding out that some good friends of ours are expecting as well!!! I'm not sure if the news is official yet, so I will keep their names a secret, but we are SO excited for you (I KNOW you follow our blog!!)

Movement: Our lil Tiger is still very active! He started something new this week where he stretches a body part way out and my whole stomach moves. I can also tell where he is sometimes. He likes to hang out with his little booty one one side of my belly button and my stomach gets SO hard where his little back and booty are.  I'm starting to learn his little routine  :)

Food cravings: I've been tearing up candy corn autumn mix like it's going out of style, but that was one of my favorite things pre-pregnancy too.

Anything making you queasy or sick:  No. I did get grossed out watching a food network show that was making turtle soup today. Also, we had Chinese (for the first time since being pregnant) on Friday night and I am STILL so swollen. 

Gender: Boy!

Symptoms: Back pain is getting worse. I had to bring my heating pad to work with me Friday and sit with it on my lower back while I charted in my office. Also my tummy is starting to look like a road map with veins running in every which direction!

Belly button in or out?  In and has sort of stopped changing shape for now. It has looked the same for a few weeks. 

Wedding rings on or off? On but I could not put them on after that Chinese food on Friday. :( I've been drinking tons of water to try and flush out this salt. I'm still so swollen...no Chinese again...

Happy or moody most of the time? Happy. I really haven't been very moody since I've been pregnant- and yes, I even asked Jim and he said the same thing! :)

Anything new? Yes! My linea nigra (that sneaky little dark line you get on your stomach while pregnant) started to show up. Also, I started to feel pregnant this week. Normal activities are starting to make me more tired than before. Also, it's becoming more difficult to get comfortable and do certain things like putting on my socks and shoes. 

Looking forward to: Buddy coming to spend the weekend with us next weekend! And of COURSE more football!

Exercise this week: Aimless walking around stores continues to be my exercise of choice during the week. 

I am officially in the 3rd Trimester!! Only 12 more weeks until we meet our little man! I added a few things to his nursery this weekend including my grandpa Major's footlocker. We plan on using it for a side table to go under his window (next to his glider).
