Blanket for Baby B

Just wanted to share the baby blanket I finished for little Baby B. (Well, technically it is not finished. I have to add his name and date of birth to the other side, but that will just have to wait a little bit longer.) This project was actually really fun to do and you could really see your progress with every stitch. ...unlike knitting which I have learned only makes me frustrated, so that kind of stuff has been put away.
The blanket is a really soft fleece so I have high hopes of our little one loving to cuddle with it and I think it will wash up well. Well now that I've finished this I have no excuse but to finally finish the baby booties I've been working on. Wish me luck!

27 weeks! ...less than 3 months left!

So, here I am at 27 weeks. My belly has really popped out in just the last couple days. (My belly button is extremely shallow and its new texture kind of freaks me out a little bit!) I'd say I'm still carrying really low and am gaining in width more so than out. Oh well, what can you do. The books say that little Baby B is starting to put some fat on his bones now and will continue doing so until he is born. He should be almost 2 lbs by now. That is amazing to me because I know that is more than the weight that some of those octuplets were born at. Things are still going really well. I'm excited to enter the third trimester next week. It seems like a major mile stone. I have my glucose test next week and I'm not too worried about it or at least that is what I keep telling myself. Then I start going to the doctor for check-ups every 2 weeks. Everything is kind of speeding up. I hope JB and I are really ready for it. We have made the list for our hospital bag and will be using the very awsome bag Brittney sent me for my birthday. SSSSOOO, enjoy my mugshots!

And here is me in my more "natural" state, working on the bathroom tile. That was so much work!!! Darn uneven Smyrna walls!

Are you seriously taking a picture of me looking like this, JB!
