34/35/36 weeks

I am on th I-pad so it is a no picture post...sorry! We are doing good just busy busy as we count down the last few weeks!! Didn't this go by fast?


How far along: 34/35/36 weeks 
Gender: our little man
Maternity clothes? I can tell the belly is bigger because things that are maternity and used to fit nice do not anymore!! 
Stretch marks? I might have one still trying tomfigurenout if it is or not hahaha maybe that is denial! 
Sleep: this last week really took a turn. I need SIX pillows to be somewhat comfy...not good! 
Symptoms: Mint tums are my favorite! Takes the reflux away!
Name: Brayden!
Weight Gain: With 3 weeks left I am up 27 1/2 lbs. phew! Let's keep it to a lb a week! 
Cravings/aversions: Sugar is amazing and so are blizzards. It didn't help that when we went to the sounders game we got buy one get one free blizzard coupons! 
How the baby is growing: He is a honeydew. Dr's want to do an ultra sound this coming thursday to check out his size. We are measuring a little bigger and well we all know at 5' tall it might be a challenge to get him out of there. Please pray for no c section and that they at least let me try on my own! 
Movement: This morning he decided to drop a little. This means I can take in deep breaths. It also means more pressure down yonder! Ouch! I over did it yesterday staining the fence, runni g around with my mom and other chores! Oops! 
What I miss: exercise..period! I want to bike run jog do more than walk one lap and have my back hurt!
Best Moment of the Week: finally hanging up things in B's room! So close to being done. The fish need bubbles and then put the randomness away!
Worst Moment of the Week: Waking up every morning and my feet hurt so bad! Once they get warmed up they work again! 
Wedding rings on or off? On! No swelling phew! 
Happy or Moody most of time? Still happy but Ntsy when things need to be taken care of. I get nervous everything won't be in order before he gets here! 
Looking forward to: seeing the little man on the big screen Thursday! 

until next time...

30/31/32/33


We have been so stinkin' busy this summer. I have not had any time to sit and blog. We are go go go and eventually I will make a blog of pictures that will depict our summer. As for now, here is the update for the last month.



How far along: 30/31/32/33 weeks 
Gender: mommy's new man
Maternity clothes? I am now outgrowing some of the shirts I have. They are tighter and barely covering that belly of mine. 
Stretch marks? I just keep slapping on the lotion
Sleep: Oh I wish I could sleep past 5 AM!
Symptoms: The burps and reflux are baaaack
Name: Baby B or Brayden
Weight Gain: Wow since last time we have gone to the Dr. twice and I am now up 26 lbs.... it can stop now. No, really it can!
Cravings/aversions: Still loving sugar
How the baby is growing: He is a butternut squash this week. His bones will all be hardened in the next two weeks!
Movement: Today was not a good day... we played let's see how many times we can stick our fit into mommy's right ribs!
What I miss: I just want to sleep on my belly!
Best Moment of the Week: Oh my gosh... I had a baby shower that was so much fun, we went to the sounders game today (hot but fun), Nic's 10 year reunion, and my brother got married! 
Worst Moment of the Week: I dread sitting in the car for more than 10 min. It is not comfy in the least. B gets squished and mad and moves and jabs... no good!
Wedding rings on or off? On and still loose. I haven't gotten swollen
Happy or Moody most of the time? Although uncomfortable, still happy
Looking forward to: booking another massage!

until next time...
