Baby Shower - 28 Weeks

Today marks 28 weeks! 3rd Trimester here I come! Today we also celebrated this new life with a wonderful baby shower in Chesterfield hosted by my sister Shirley. It was a wonderful day with a variety of food, games, and a great cake made by my Grandmother. We had many wonderful family and friends who came out to celebrate and shower us with love for this new baby. I was very thankful that Steve's Aunt made the trip down from New Hampshire to celebrate and spend time with the family. It was a great day and I am so thankful for all the gifts and all the people who came and supported us.

Today I am 28 weeks pregnant and have a little under three months to go. I have been feeling okay. My feet have started to swell more and some days my hips are sore, but other days they feel fine. This is all normal and overall considering the stage I am entering I feel good. Anytime I feel a pain or get uncomfortable I try and be thankful that baby Ethan is still inside of me and that I've been able to carry him this far with no complications.

Sometimes it is still hard to believe that I am this far along in the pregnancy and we are actually having a baby in a few months. We have not even started the process of setting up the baby room and we are definitely not ready, but we are thankful for all the family and friends who are encouraging us and supporting us throughout this journey.
