*35 weeks*

We are officially ready for baby! Well, gear wise :) Margaret and Susan threw me the most beautiful baby shower! I mean, down to the details it was stunning! I am still so overwhelmed by the love and gifts we received by the amazing people in our lives. We are so blessed, and Jack is already so loved! 

I was so happy to come home and finally start nesting! I was worn out after the shower, so naturally I woke up at 6 am the next morning to start putting Jacks stuff together :) To say I'm excited to meet this little boy is an understatement! Thank you to everyone who made our day so special! We love you!

How far along? 35 weeks 2 days 

Maternity clothes? Still rockin a bit of both! Barely haha :)

Stretch marks? Nope. Fingers crossed!

Sleep: Not a whole lot. I'm up all through the night and once I'm awake, I'm awake!

Nausea: Nope

Best moment this week: the baby shower! And getting our house all put together :) it's been so much fun!! Also, we found a pediatrician and I love him! 

Miss Anything? I'm just ready to get my body back! I'm so close I can almost taste the big cup of coffee I dream about :) 

Movement: Allllll the time :) healthy boy, happy mama!

Food cravings: Mexican food and chocolate still. He dropped a little so my stomach has more room and wants to be filled!

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope

Labor Signs: Braxton hicks 

Symptoms: Braxton hicks, swollen feet if I'm on them for awhile, fatigue

Belly Button in or out? Out! :)

Wedding ring on or off? On

Happy or Moody most of the time: happy :) I'm ready to meet this boy! (Not too soon though!)

Looking forward to: we have an ultrasound at our next appointment I'm really looking forward to. He's been growing really far ahead, so now we need to figure out just how big he is. Our doctor basically told us to not even bother buying newborn clothing because he can fit in those sizes already. I'm happy he's a big, healthy baby, but I want to know just how big! And I get to see him :))) 

*32 weeks*

This was right at 32 weeks. I feel like my belly has popped a TON since then. Stay tuned! Moving keeps me busy :)

How far along? 32 weeks 5 days 

Maternity clothes? Still rockin a bit of both! Busting out of anything tight though, this belly has popped.

Stretch marks? Nope. I think I'll get one right where my belly button ring was though because its stretched to the max

Sleep: Not a whole lot. Naps are my friend!

Nausea: Nope

Best moment this week: WE CLOSED ON OUR HOUSE!!! It's been a lot of long nights, but thanks to Andrews genius home scouring brain and miss Trish, we are now the proud owners of a beautiful house :) 

Miss Anything? Just feeling normal in general. I'm starting to understand why women say that I'll be ready to have him when the time comes, although I know I'm really going to miss these baby kicks.

Movement: Allllll the time :) I swear he knows when Andrew is in the room because he starts flipping around :) he's so strong, it's all limbs now. SO cool.

Food cravings: Mexican food and chocolate still. Today I wanted Panda Express like it was no ones business.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope

Labor Signs: Braxton hicks 

Symptoms: Braxton hicks, swollen feet if I'm on them for awhile, fatigue

Belly Button in or out? Out! :)

Wedding ring on or off? On

Happy or Moody most of the time: happy :) I've had a lot of...um we're having a baby in one month... Moments, so those can send me for a loop. Luckily God reminded me that He is still in control, and even though I may have pregnancy mood swings, I still need to be a Godly woman. I'm reminded "The Lord is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love." (Psalm 145:8) He is the ruler of the entire universe holds the burdens of everyone in his hands, but He's still loving and patient with us. I can only ask for His kind of mercy and to love like that, even when I'm on edge. Having a loving, patient husband keeps me really in tune to that :)

Looking forward to: baby shower! And the nursery :) it finally has its final coat of paint on! Eeek!!

Homeowners!! :)

Finally got my hands on some of his clothes to wash and hang in the nursery :)

Gypsy definitely knows something is going on. The past month she has not left my side, and today she curled up to Jack, and when he kicked her she just nuzzled into my belly.
