27 weeks

Well here we are!! 27 weeks. Only 13 to go. I think it is so hard to believe that its so short a time till I get to meet my baby boy! The weeks have been filled with not much! Actually that is not true, I have been keeping myself busy. And my friends and family have been helping alot! Between girls night with the girls from church, dinner with different family members, to the daily stuff around the house time has gone pretty fast.

I had a doctors appointment about 2 weeks ago and it went really well. It was the appointment where I had to drink the super sweet flat orange soda and wait an hour so they could check my blood sugar. Good news I passed!! I had lost a small amount of weight again, but Mason is growing perfectly and had a really strong heartbeat!! Which is all that matters. And honestly, as long as he is right were he should be, I perfectly ok with not gaining much weight. The less I gain the less I have to loose! And considering I want to try and loose all my weight by the time Travis comes home (all you moms out there, keep all comments to yourself) it would be nice to have a head start!

Every week since Travis has been gone, I take a picture of my ever expanding belly and send it to Travis so he can see how much I have grown! Well, this is my 27 week picture. Yes, I am aware that I am wearing the same cloths as I was in my last belly picture, I did it on purpose. This way Travis can really compare pictures! Some days I feel huge, and some days I feel like I am smaller than most people at this point. What do you think?

As for Travis, I haven't gotten to talk to him much lately, but the last time I did he was doing pretty well. He sounded a bit better than he did when he first got there. He did sprain his ankle again, but said it wasn't bad. We miss him like crazy, but I have already begun the count down! It is not a real one, really, because I don't know when he is coming home for sure, but you all know me, I love to countdown! I am even counting down till Mason's due date!
