27 weeks - 3rd Trimester!

Already 27weeks pregnant! Its going so fast this time round! I can no longer see my feet when I look down (not bending over), and the belly button has disappeared. Baby is about 38cm long and we have hit the third trimester!! Woohoo!!
My bursts of energy come and go as they please... some days feeling as though I can do and conquer anything and other days struggling to get out of bed in the morning or stay awake past 7:30pm. But its so nice to feel baby kicking and moving inside, letting me know they are ok!! Im feeling great! I gained 25kgs with Luke!!! YES 25kgs!!! But trying to be good this time round and have only gained 2.5kgs so far!!! YAY!! Go me!!! And have limited myself to only gaining another 4kgs if I have too...but would rather not!



Last night I started the baby name list. With Luke, we took a list of about 8 names to the hospital and once he was born we narrowed it down to what suited him! It worked well, so we thought we would do it again....however finding names we both like has been harder!! We even went over the 'other' names we had picked out for Luke and they have all gone out the window....not using one of them!! So we are both keeping our ears open to nice names!! Its also hard being married to a school teacher... a name is always matched to a student and whether they are a good or bad student, determines if Boyd likes it or not....ANNOYING!
I actually really care about the meaning of the name... There have been a few names I like, but the meanings have been uninspiring so have decided against them.

Nursery has started but still lots to do, and im starting to stress about it! Boyd starts holidays next week so he assures me we will make it a priority to do some furniture shopping. We are in desperate need for a chest of draws, and bookshelf....and also going to pick up a bed truck for Luke's room in our shopping travels. I want a special place to store all those treasures you keep as your kids grow up.

I totally LOVE my pram....but I cant get a toddler seat attachment :( To all the mums that have gone from one to two kids, do I need one?? Its one of those thoughts that keeps going over and over in my head.

I could do with any advise from that all you mums out there who have 2!! Im so looking forward to it, but its the walking into the unknown that can play on your mind!....oooooo.... Im sooo excited!!
