27 Weeks!

Sorry kids, I'm a week behind so I'll try to update as best for 27 weeks :)

This week has gone by fairly quickly thanks to work and studying for an exam I need to take in early December.  Oh and probably because of Thanksgiving, ha!  Pregnant people and Thanksgiving go along great!!  I had lots of delicious food but then decided to sleep over at my parents house to hit up some Black Friday sales...that probably wasn't the best decision as I slept on an air mattress so didn't get much comfortable sleep at all.  Black Friday was a success but I did notice that I tire a lot easier now from being on my feet and after walking/standing on hard concrete my back starts to hurt quite a bit but got some excellent deals and crossed some people off of my gift buying list :)

27 week update - Weight of a cauliflower
This week, your baby weighs almost 2 pounds (like a head of cauliflower) and is about 14 1/2 inches long with her legs extended. She's sleeping and waking at regular intervals, opening and closing her eyes, and perhaps even sucking her 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 her, so just relax and enjoy the tickle.
