28 weeks
Due Date: Feb 25
Weight Gain: 25 pounds eek!
Symptoms: throwing up almost everyday again a lot of it is from acid reflux sometimes I still feel nasauas as well- generally feel sort of crappy a lot of the time but nothing like the first trimester. Have been sleeping pretty good and I am not uncomfortable physically yet so that is good.
I'm thankful for: being in the third trimester and feeling the baby kick a lot
Cravings: soda (sprite mostly), egg and cheese sandwiches
Aversions
Sleep: pretty good although I am tired a lot
I miss:not having to worry about what I can and can not do- spray painting, lifting heavy things etc.
I am looking forward to: getting our kitchen done so our house is not a mess
Best moment this week: last week the baby's heatbeat was in the 150's to 160's and the doctor said it is very active
I'm stressing about: finishing paperwork and the messy house
Milestones: in the third trimester
Movement: yes
It's a...: Surprise I go back and forth between boy (we must be having a boy because everyone else is having a girl) to girl ( I have been so sick it must be because it is a girl) The midwife says she has a strong intuition that it is a girl. We shall see!
Exercise: horrible very little
Diet: eating out too much due to having no kitchen and being lazy
Weekly Goal:I would say exercise but I am so tired all the time I have no motivation
Baby Bargains: crib and dresser floor model for 230 more then 50 percent off a rug for 49.99 for the babies room down from 150. 2 pairs of baby boy shoes for 4 dollars. got baby sleepers for 2.90 cents brand new at sears I got 8 pairs 4 girl and 4 boy.

Ways to Spend less Make More this winter
Ways to try to save money this winter:
1. compare insurance rates
2. look at cable bill and see if we can lower it by asking if it went up
3. looking into different credit card reward offers (we have not credit card debt) however we have a card we use all the time for business and everyday purchases and we make a lot of purchase with the business we only get 1 percent back right now but probably could do better.
4. work on turning off the lights more
5. keep the heat set to 55 and use the wood stove all the time
6. eat out less
7. coupon to stock up on toltieries so we aren't spending money on them
8. Get better about our food spending
9. sign up for all the free b-day other promotions to get free stuff like eating out coupons
Ways to make money this winter
1. Sell stuff on Craigslist
2. Sell stuff on ebay
3, try to do the sites like swagbucks to earn amazon gift cards
4. enter contests to win free stuff
