27 weeks

Sorry I never got around to making an update last week. After missing work on Friday and Monday (to fly to Minnesota for my shower) I spent most of the week catching up. To all of you who came to my shower- thank you SO much for everything! I promise that thank you notes will be on the way soon. I have a list of who gave what, but there are some where I need to check the card/gift again... and I won't actually have all the stuff here in Indiana until when Mom brings it to me (on October 17).

As of yesterday, I'm officially in the third trimester, and I'm due exactly 3 months from today! Craziness! I read in one of my books that the next 4-5 weeks will be the baby's most active time (in utero). I don't notice the movement a lot during the day. However, I think it's mainly because I'm busy, and not paying attention. When I lay down at night, and pay attention, he moves around a ton. I seem to wake up sometime around 4 am every morning (to go to the bathroom), and when I lay back down in bed, he's usually kicking/punching up a storm. So, it makes me wonder if that's really why I have to get up at that time every morning- he's waking me up!

The dresser/changing table finally came in today (2 months after I ordered it), so we'll go pick that up. However, I have no idea where in the world it's going to go once we get it home. We'll just have to make room, and sooner or later get started cleaning out the baby's bedroom.
