26 weeks

I am 6 full months now! I can't believe how fast the 2nd trimester has gone. I am just about out of it and into the 3rd already. I can tell since I am starting to feel the weight of my big belly on my back more and more. And I know, its only going to get bigger...a lot bigger. Just this past weekend, for the first time, 2 separate strangers asked me about being pregnant! Its exciting to know that I look pregnant now to the general public, enough so they feel comfortable to ask.
I have been feeling pretty well in general, all besides the fact that my GERD (acid reflux) has flared up. I knew it was going to happen sooner or later since acid reflux is common during pregnancy to begin with. Its a good night when i only have to sleep at about a 45 degree angle instead of completely sitting up at a 90 degree. oh well, she's well worth it :).
Dave assembled the remaining 3 drawers for the dresser today, although they are not in the actual frame of the dresser yet, the hard part is finished. We bought some stain today for it as well. It shouldn't take too much more time. Just sand and stain and fill with clothes!
Its starting to get pretty hot here so we've been spending a lot of time at the pool on base. Dave loves the big water slide, he waits in line to use it with all the other kids! Since we will probably be there most Saturdays from now on, my weekly pictures will be in a bathing suit for the most part (better to show the true belly anyway). I will have to be in one of two bathing suits every week since they are the only ones that fit now. I plan on buying a maternity tankini once i give into maternity clothes...
