26 Weeks

Whoops...somehow I thought this was the beginning of the third trimester but nope...2 more weeks. Appetite kicked up a notch anyway and I almost thought I wouldn't fit in my wedding dress. I did! Everything went really well and Chloe decided not to kick the crap out of me. I wonder if she could feel that something important was going on.

Now it feels like everything is a waiting game. I still have plenty to do because we're moving into a bigger apartment in the middle of July...but it's in the middle of July. I still have time to figure that out. Besides that I'm waiting on the marriage certificates to come in the mail so I can get my name changed in the proper places, waiting for the next few days to pass so I can go to the Southern Fried Poetry Slam, waiting for next week so we can go to the doctor again, waiting for July so I can go to a coworker's wedding and have a long weekend, waiting for August to cheer on the Atlanta poetry slam teams from home while they go to Boston (I'll be 36 weeks...I'm pretty sure I'll be told to be still), and waiting for Chloe to kick her way out. Waiting, waiting, waiting.

This week for Chloe:

• her parents are married! (I know, not what you were expecting, but hey, I'm excited)
• She's 14 inches from head to heel and about 2 pounds
• Her eyes are starting to open :-)
• Her brain-wave activity is kicking in, meaning she can respond to the noises she hears in there

So, in the flurry of getting married I believe that I completely forgot to take my tummy pic this week. Darn. If I find it somewhere I'll post it. Oh well. I'S MARRIED NOW :-)
