28 weeks


I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. Manny worked all day, but we had a nice dinner with his parents when he got home.
We're going to get our Christmas tree this evening- definitely looking forward to that.
My classes end this week- I have one term paper due tonight, which I've finished, and one really hard one due Thursday, which I plan on working on for most of today. I'm so glad to be so close to the end of the semester- it was a tough one for sure.
The baby is strong and I feel him moving all the time now. He is about 15 inches long and the weight of a bok choy (Chinese cabbage) this week:

He can blink his eyes now, and they have lashes. Manny plays games with him by poking my belly and waiting for him to poke back- it's pretty cute. I've been feeling really good, though some days are much more uncomfortable than others. I think that yoga has really been a huge factor in how I feel. We're going to brave Babies r Us later on to finish registering there- we've already finished the one at Target. This will be my first time actually going into Babies r Us, and from what I hear it can be somewhat overwhelming. I'm not really so into all the gadgetry and materialism that has been associated with having a baby- it's better to keep things more simple- but still, there are things you need, and I am so thankful to be having baby showers so we'll get some of those things.
Signing off now. -H
