28 Weeks - Sprout still as big as an Eggplant but weighs as much as a head of Cauliflower!

Hmm, I don't like either of those veggies.  But Sprout is getting so big!  The books all say that Sprout can be somewhere around 2lbs - 2 1/2 lbs at this point - holy smokes!

We officially hit the 3rd trimester today.  3 more months til the bebe is officially here! 

We have been fairly active these last couple of weeks just with regular life things.  Birthing classes are going along well and we have had our friends Tory and Jeremy over for dinner so we are still keeping a somewhat normal adult life so far!

I have cleaned up our registry on Amazon so its almost ready!  I think we plan on having the bebe shower the middle of January ... which is fairly close to the due date but honestly, with the holidays coming up, it really seemed the only time we could!  We are planning on having a co-ed party at our friend Kim & Matt's home in San Pedro - we are super excited to be having it and are incredibly lucky to have such great friends who will be hosting it (Kim, Shaena, Kim and Sharon).  The other exciting part of it is that we believe that Grandma will be coming from Ohio for the shower!  YAY!

Sawyers bday is today (the big 18!!) so we will be going to his bday dinner tonight.  Sawyer is still reading up on all of the things that happen week to week for Sprout. 

Dakota has been able to feel the bebe boxing going on in there and has finally been able to read his book to Sprout. 

Parker was able to feel a small kick the last time he was over and we are hoping that he will be able to feel the more vigorous ones that we have been having lately!

Sprout really loves the sound of all of the boys voices!

Dave continues to be amazing.  His continuous talking, reading and playing music for Sprout has been fantastic and always seems to get an excited thrashing about session after he stops.

Speaking of thrashing about sessions; we officially know that Sprout wakes at about 6am, goes back to sleep about 1/2 hr later then is awake by 9am every morning.  It's really fun to know that the schedule may be the same once we deliver!

We had our glucose test (well two of them) last week and it seems that everything looks a-ok so far.  The drs appt went well ... measuring according to gestation and such.  We will be going back next week for our 3D ultrasound as well as having another normal ultrasound on December 7th (our next appointment).  After this next appointment it is more than likely that we will be going back every 2 weeks til the last month when it is weekly.  whew!  Back has been off and on painful as has the acid reflux that has come on strong all of a sudden.  My appetite is ok but lately other than burgers, nothing sounds good.  I am sure this is a temporary state and will continue to eat whatever gives me the least heartburn!  Other than those 2 things I continue to feel amazing!

Well, that is about it for this week.  My brother, sister in law and Ashley will be coming over this weekend to hang out. I believe they are bringing the bebe furniture that Ashley used so that's exciting!

Have a fantastic weekend!
