27 weeks!!

So, yesterday I had my prenatal check up and I got the date that Ashton will be delivered! I am so excited to have this date, finally! I have absolutely NO desire what so ever to go into labor. I know some people may think that is weird, but that's just me! I'm a HUGE planner! Everything needs to be planned out and ready to go....and now it is!! Anyways, Ashton will be here on July 27th around 12:00PM! That makes things just fall right into place for me. Now I know (hopefully he does not decide to come any earlier) when everything needs to be bought and completed!
I go back to do my next prenatal visit on May 20th when I get to do my Glucose Test and be tested for Gestational Diabetes. I can't wait to drink that OHHH so yummy orange drink. I remember drinking that with Tyler .... NOT good at all!


Here is how our baby is growing:
This week, your baby weighs almost 2 pounds (like a head of cauliflower) and is about 14 1/2 inches long with his legs extended. He's sleeping and waking at regular intervals, opening and closing his eyes, and perhaps even sucking his fingers. With more brain tissue developing, your baby's brain is very active now. While her lungs are still immature, they would be capable of functioning — with a lot of medical help — if she were to be born now. Chalk up any tiny rhythmic movements you may be feeling to a case of baby hiccups, which may be common from now on. Each episode usually lasts only a few moments, and they don't bother him, so just relax and enjoy the tickle.
