week 34

About the baby? the size of a squash or a cantaloupe...18inches long and about 4 3/4 lbs

Maternity Clothes? not really, but if we were rich and I didn't mind spending a ton of money on clothes, I'd probably go out and get some maternity things.  I'm just trying to get by with what I have, but everything is getting tight now!

 

Stretch Marks? still nothing :)

Gender? boy

Movement?   Yes... but I think things are getting tighter in there though. 

Sleep? I've slept the best on nights when I got exercise... it really helps knock me out.

Food Cravings? nothing

What I Miss?  being in shape

Symptoms? umm... #1 "baby brain".  I used to think that it was something pregnant ladies made up to make excuses for stupid things they did... but no!  It's real!  One example- Kirby and I just got home from the grocery store and I was putting some things away.  I pulled open the deli meat drawer and saw some things in there that we had just bought.  I asked Kirby "Did you already put some things away?".   After he convinced me he hadn't touched any bags yet, I realized I must have put some things away and didn't even realize I did it already. 
#2 (new one) swollen feet/ankles and fingers. 

Best Moment This Week?  two things here too...
#1 Getting to spend time with Kirby learning about how our little man will make his way into the world soon.  Child birthing class was fun and Kirby made it very entertaining.  I'm not sure who will pass out first in the delivery room... mom or dad.

#2 the baby shower my planning team had for me at school today.  Kirby surprised me and showed up too :)  More details and pictures on that soon.

Looking Forward To?
making it full-term... it's so close!
