Unpacking the Heart

Today marks 27 weeks.  Shew.  Today (as seen in the picture) I wore a white shirt....all day I felt like the "Stay Puff Marshmallow Man."  Baby Girl is definitely growing and getting stronger.  Her kicks are now clearly visible from the outside.  Matthew and I crack up at night when I rest my Kindle on my belly and she kicks it off.  It is so funny.  I am pretty sure there are times when she does the bicycle in there.
