Into the Third Trimester

Another milestone in pregnancy has come this week...I am 26 weeks along so have entered into the third trimester! I actually hadn't thought about it until just a couple of days ago and found myself pretty surprised to have made it this far already. With just over three months to go, we have been starting to do more to get ready for our little guy to join us.

This week we'll go to our first class at the hospital: anesthesia for labor and delivery. I anticipate I'll be deciding the anesthesia is a good option!

We also have been spending lots of time at Target, Toys R Us, and Babies R Us. It has been a blast looking at all the basic necessities and frivolous extras that we have to choose from. Just this week I was in Target and a new Louisville friend, Emily, happenend upon me in one of the baby aisles. She was such a gift, talking me through all the best bottle and diaper choices, as well as filling me in on some things I would have never thought to register for. We had such fun and I left thanking the Lord for friends who have walked this road before me.

Shane says this shirt doesn't quite reveal how much I'm showing since it's black. But it will have to do for now...
