36 Weeks

Well May is almost over....surprise surprise! I don't have a fully shot for 36 weeks, and 36 weeks is almost over. So here's what i got! That belly right there- makes for a nice little table for my nightly bowl of cereal haha! Really getting to the end now, hospital bag is packed and ready to go....finally! (According to my baby app some people start packing that at 28 weeks!)

How far along? 36 Weeks but 37 is just around the corner.

Total weight gain/loss: So far i've gained 23lb - which im told is spot on for where i am in my pregnancy.

Maternity clothes? Yes, it's been really hard not buy new things because i'm outgrowing what i have or stuff "shrinks" ;) but i know i only have less than a month, so is it really worth it?

Stretch marks? Yes just a little.

Sleep:  Sleep is getting harder to come by these days mostly because i need to pee once or twice during the night, plus when i want to switch sides that im sleeping on i feel like i practically have to sit up to make it happen! lol

Best moment this week:  We wen to the open house at Hailey's school and got to see all the stuff she's been working on!

Seriously these photos were my favorite part of her classroom work! this girl loves her daddy!

Little bit of art - plus the kindness chain, she's told me a lot about that kindness chain she and her classmates have made over the school year it's really long!

I loved being able to see her writing and how she's progressed over the school year- one proud mommy over here! 

Seriously so many pictures, but i'll cap it off right here!

 We then went to the book fair and let her pick out a book she really wanted, i just love seeing the excitment she has for the little things in life.

Miss anything? Being able to reach my toes - need to paint my toenails really bad! Also i miss sitting on the floor and being able to get up easily!

Movement: Oh yes! lots and lots!

Food cravings: Im really into the bakery stuff, breads, muffins, cinnamon rolls, cookies you name it! But luckily for the most part i have pretty good self control.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope

Labor Signs: Just Braxton Hicks contractions coming a little more frequent than they were before.

Symptoms: well, not really...

Belly Button in or out? out and i don't think it can go out any further - it better not!

Wedding rings on or off? Still on! but i have a feeling it will soon be time for them to come off!

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy most of the time (in my humble opinion!)

Looking forward to: Warmer weather so we can swim in that pool!

Also looking forward to the baby shower my next door neighbor is throwing me - never had one so it should be fun! 

We are also going to have a birthday party for Hailey in a couple weeks....what were we thinking? i'm going to be almost 39 weeks so hopefully this low key affair doesn't put me into labor!

Working on the pin the tail on the puppy

(yes i did draw that puppy, and im pretty darn proud of it because i am NOT a good drawer!)

So there you go folks, i may try to post a bump update once a week from now on since i am pretty close to the finish line - so stay tuned!

34 Weeks and Counting Down.....

Can't believe it's 34 weeks already. Seriously What in the world happened to April?! I blinked and it was gone! I tell you these weeks have been Flying by (but i'm not complaining.) I think i'm at that point where i'm about ready to be done. I feel huge and the extra weight of that belly in front really throws me off! I feel really disproportionate!  Well I can now officially say  'I'm due next month' Here's to a happy May!

How far along? 34 Weeks

Total weight gain/loss: Well I'll find out that fun little fact tomorrow!

Maternity clothes? Yes, but i feel like I'm growing out of everything!

Stretch marks? Sadly yes they are still there, but not for long!

Sleep:  As of this week it's been a tossing and turning battle all night long - but it's to be expected.

Best moment this week:  Someone gave me a baby swing, very happy and surprised to get it! Also those nice pregnancy comments like ' you look great!' 'your so small' 'great outfit' etc etc. nobody can truly understand how Great that makes a prego feel! (especially if your having a bad day!)

Miss anything? Being able to do normal everyday things and lifting stuff like heavy boxes that need to go to the garage. I'm not going to lie some days it's very frustrating! Thank goodness for an awesome husband who doesn't mind helping out a little extra ;)

Movement: Oh yes! so so much she's running out of room in there.

Food cravings: Well i don' t really have a craving for anything in particular, but sometimes I'll think of something or see something that i just 'have' to have right at that moment. 

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope

Labor Signs: Just occasional Braxton Hicks

Symptoms: well i'm pregnant does that count? hahaha 

Belly Button in or out? out and there's no hiding that thing no matter how many layers i wear! lol

Wedding rings on or off? Still on! but in the last few weeks is when it usually comes off.

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy most of the time!

Looking forward to: Putting up the swimming pool this weekend, got to let it start warming up! Also my sister coming to visit next month.....the countdown is on!
