Weekly Bump Update: Week 37



How far along: 37 WEEKS!!! I can't believe I only have a few more weeks of updating! So crazy!!!!

Baby size: Cruz is as big as a Winter Melon!! No idea what that is, but it's a good size melon! ha!

Weight gain: 25ish lbs.

Maternity clothes: Oh yeah! I'm ready to start wearing my old clothes though!

Stretch marks: Not that I've found!

Sleep: Pretty good! Just trying to get as much as I can!

Gender: BOY!

Movement: I'm sorry, what is that?? Oh, just kidding! This kid is the biggest squirmer ever!! A nurse told me that means he'll never sit still when he's out either. Yay! haha

Best moment this week: Honestly probably a tie between getting a pedicure (Ahhhh, heaven for my little swollen feetsies) and having my mom come over and DEEP clean our house! It's soooo clean, I wish it could stay like this forever!!!!!

Looking forward to: Meeting this little boy!! He can come any time now!

Food cravings: Still wanting chocolate milk. Broke down and got a little carton at work one morning and got another half gallon Thursday evening.

Weirdest food I ate this week: Can't really think of anything...

Anything making you queasy/sick? Nope.

Labor signs: Still having Braxton Hicks every now and then. Nothing crazy though!

What I miss: Not having swollen hands and feet. They've been pretty bad this week. Ready for them to be normal again and to wear my wedding bands. I miss them!

Symptoms:  Heartburn. Swollen hands and feet. Middle of the night potty breaks. Random pains in random places. Sleepy.

Nursery: It's ALMOST ready for the big reveal!!! Eek! I LOVE it!!!!!!!

Belly button in or out: Out to shout! ha!

Mood: Wonderful!

Workouts: Walked 1 day this week, but that was it. Have been running lots of errands after work and of course helping clean the house with mom on Saturday was a workout for this preggo! ha!

Things that suck:  I just started getting a pain this week in my upper back on the right side towards the end of the day and at night. I have no idea why, but it really really sucks!


Things that don't suck: Knowing Cruz can show up any day now and he's full term and will hopefully be the healthiest little baby ever! :)

My Easter bump!! 

And just like that, we have a car seat in my car! Crazy!! 

My little model playing with our new Canon Rebel T5!! :)

Thank you hospital for having little cartons of chocolate milk in the cafeteria! :) 

 Getting the best pedicure of my life!! haha
Pretty toes, but way less swollen then they have been! I should probably get a pedi every day! ;)
I sent this to Anne and Tonya Friday night and Anne said my belly looked like I was stashing cookie dough!! haha 

I think we're pretty stocked up on diapers! Plus we got more yesterday at our shower with the Porter's!!!  

Mom doing some serious deep cleaning on Saturday!! So lucky she likes a challenge, because I'm pretty sure our house was just that! :)  

Gerr Bear came over Saturday too and switched out the ceiling light and put a dimmer on the light switch in Cruz's room and hung these shelves!  

And Ty worked his booty off cleaning out the backyard. He raked up all the leaves, cut down limbs and a stupid tree that had vines that grew from every direction. It looks so much better!!!

Weekly Bump Update: Week 36



How far along: 36 WEEKS!!!

Baby size: Cruz is as big as a Honeydew!!

Weight gain: 25 lbs.

Maternity clothes: Yes, yes, yes. I'm ready to be able to wear my old clothes though...

Stretch marks: No, I've been lucky so far.

Sleep: Every night is kind of different. Some nights are better than others. Just trying to sleep as much as I can.

Gender: BOY!

Movement: All the time. Little squirmer!

Best moment this week: Finding out that he was head down at the doctor and that I am 1cm dialated and 50% effaced. Making progress! whoop whoop!

Looking forward to: Our last shower this weekend with the Porter's!

Food cravings: Still kind of wanting chocolate milk, but I did run out about mid week and didn't get another 1/2 gallon, so I guess that's good.

Weirdest food I ate this week: Can't really think of anything...

Anything making you queasy/sick? Nope.

Labor signs: I definitely think I'm having Braxton Hicks every now and then. Nothing more serious than that though.

What I miss: Not having swollen hands and feet. Ready for those to go back to normal!

Symptoms: Same as the last 2 weeks really...Heartburn. Swollen hands and feet. Middle of the night potty breaks. Random pains in random places. Sleepy.

Nursery: Ty's parents came over Friday and put the glider together!! Love it and it's so comfortable! Tonya's working on prints for us. We're getting it together! Slowly, but surely.

Belly button in or out: It's an outy.

Mood: Really good!!!  

Workouts: Just went walking 2 days this week. Nothing crazy...my body can't take Zumba anymore and I'm just trying to take it easy for the most part. My feet are so swollen by the end of the day that walking obviously doesn't help that, but I know it's good for me, so I'm going to try to keep that up a little bit longer.

Things that suck:  Can't really think of anything!


Things that don't suck: Knowing Cruzer will be making his appearance any day now really. It's crazy to think and I don't feel like I'm ready, but I know everything will just fall into place when he's here and nothing else will matter!

More pics from Week 36:

Tested out the carseat canopy Lauren got for us! Love it!!! 

New book and toy basket! 

Saw this on my calendar when I switched it over to April! It's "Baby Month"!
 
My cartoon character looking shadow when I was walking Wednesday after work! haha! 

 The Easter bunny visited us at work on Friday!
 
Our new glider! I have a feeling this will be my new best friend when Cruz comes! 

And of course, Lexie has already claimed it as hers! Brat! 

Had to pick her up so I could sit in the glider Saturday night. Seat hog!
