Elayne the Eggplant at 28 Weeks (7 MONTHS!)

This weekend we were traveling machines! We drove down to New Braunfels to stay the night with the Harkins. Saturday was Jake's graduation party in LaVernia, and yesterday we drove back.

Oh and Happy Fathers Day!

Today, I finally received one of my wishes! We have a maid service cleaning the house as we speak! Too exciting! It is really hard for me to bend over and clean tubs/showers, vacuum the whole house, and so much more. Therefore, enter maid service until after Elayne is born. So exciting!

Tomorrow we have our 3D/4D ultrasound and I can't wait. We get to see our baby girl AGAIN on the big screen and this time we'll actually be able to tell more about what she looks like. I'm hoping we'll even get a smile out of her. Plus we get a full video and DVD of pictures to show everyone. Watch the Caring Bridge page for her glamour shots. ;)

Baby Elayne

Size: Eggplant. That's 2 1/4 pounds, and 15 1/2 inches long. Holy moley she is getting big! Though, with my height, I'm pretty skeptical about her length. ;)

Important Developments: Pretty much, her lungs and immune systems are forming more and she's filling out to look more like a chubby newborn instead of scraggly alien.

Noticeable Symptoms: This short torso of mine is not serving me well. Elayne likes to hang out in my ribs now, though fortunately she hasn't started kicking them - yet. I am having a hard time getting hungry. I even lost another pound last week. I'll see what my doctor says about it.

Total Weight Gain: Still at 9 pounds. I'm thinking that is good, but we'll see tomorrow.
