36 Weeks and 37 Weeks

How far along: 36 Weeks. We are officially in the month of June aka baby month!

Baby is the size of a: Head of Romaine Lettuce

Gender: Girl!

Weight gain: I am up a total of 12lbs. Thank you Texas heat for adding the unnecessary water weight!

Maternity clothes: Maternity clothes are actually getting uncomfortable. Everything is actually getting uncomfortable. 

Sleep: I somehow managed not to get up in pee in the middle of the night twice in the past week.

Aches and Pains: My back, my feet, my legs are swollen, I have to pee every time I change positions, I'm exhausted all the time but I know the end is near!

Best moment this week: A surprise baby shower at work! My co-workers are so sweet and organized a baby shower for myself and another pending parent. 

Worst moment this week:Moving, unpacking, organizing.

Miss anything: After moving more stuff on Saturday all I really wanted was a beer!

Movement: I really feel like she is running out of room. Her punches just aren't as powerful as they used to be but she still wiggles and squirms. 

Cravings: Salads with ranch dressing.

Looking forward to: Baby time! I can't wait to hold our baby girl!

How far along: 37 Weeks.

Baby is the size of a: Swiss Chard

Gender: Girl!

Weight gain: I haven't weighed myself in a while. With the amount of puff I see surrounding my cankles, its probably best. 

Maternity clothes: With the heat and the fact that nothing fits I am tempted to spend the remainder of this pregnancy in a nudest colony. 

Sleep: Is that still a thing? Insomnia hit the other night and I was up for hours. I almost did the dishes at 2am. 

Aches and Pains: It might be easier to list what doesn't ache at this point. 

Best moment this week:Getting to spend a lot of time with just Jon before the baby comes and our house is finally starting to come together. Still very messy but slowly getting there. 

Worst moment this week:River has been at his grandparents since June 1st and we won't get him back until Friday. We are missing that little guy like crazy!

Miss anything: I can't wait to have my normal body back!

Movement:She still moves all the time. She loves to push on my hips!

Cravings: No cravings at all. 

Looking forward to: Getting my little man back. Watching How to Train Your Dragon 2 this weekend and having a baby!

35 Weeks

How far along: 35 Weeks.

Baby is the size of a: Honeydew melon.

Gender: Girl!

Weight gain: I haven't moved my scale this week but I know there is weight gain because my legs are back to being puffy!

Maternity clothes: This bump is getting so large that I feel like some of my maternity clothes are getting too small! While moving this week I started thinking about getting rid of some of my normal clothes that I just don't wear anymore, then I realized that is probably a horrible idea because I haven't worn anything in the past 5 months! Hopefully I don't nest my way out of a wardrobe!

Sleep: I've been so tired the past week that sleep is great! 

Aches and Pains: My back is killing me! 

Best moment this week: Our first night in our new house, Rivers graduation, Jon's birthday. So many good things the past week!

Worst moment this week: Moving, moving, moving.. and we still have so much to move!

Miss anything: Cocktails and pie.

Movement: This girl loves to move. She has found a way to kick my hip bones now, yay.

Cravings: All food. 

Looking forward to: My Dad is coming this weekend. I can't wait to spend some time with him! 

We have had such a busy week. We started moving everything to the new house which has been challenging to say the least. I have learned that I can not bend because when I do fires from the depths of hell come burning through my entire chest in the form of heartburn. Do you know how difficult it is it pack and move without bending at all? I have been just parking my butt on the floor and scooting around to pick up stuff. I look like a dog with worms, but at least I am getting the job done.
