Baby BumpDate: Week 32

I haven't done my 7 month dressed up picture yet...plan to this weekend!

How far along? Week 32...only 8 left!!!

How big is baby? The average baby is about 16.7 inches according to my phone app but Goose is measuring above average so I'm guessing he's about 17.5 inches right now.

Weight gain? I don't know but have to be gaining. I think I can feel myself stretching and growing throughout the day.

Maternity Clothes? Of course! I love these nursing tanks that I get at Target! They are really comfy now while pregnant and will come in handy when it's time to nurse. I will be living in these for the next year or so at home!

Stretch Marks? No new ones from last week that I noticed.

Sleep? Still not getting much. I'm getting more than I was a few weeks ago by only waking twice to use the bathroom, however, now that I'm like a beached whale I have to wake up to roll over which is about every two hours.

Best Moment this week? We went to the Rockies game with Hubby's grandparents and my parents. Granny and Great Popa had a lot of fun. I'm so glad that we were able to take them and enjoy the time with them. Of course Goose slept most of the time and when he did move Granny wasn't able to feel him move but that's how he is.

Movement? Goose moves quite a lot. He has powerful little hands that have bruised my insides so most of the time when he's moving I'm in pain. I do love it when he wiggles his feet and legs because I can watch him move and it doesn't hurt like his hands do.

Food Cravings? Sweets. Little Debbie Brownie's especially.

Gender? Baby Boy!

Labor Signs? None yet. We are grateful for that. Hoping to keep it that way for awhile longer.

Belly Button In or Out? Still in.

What I Miss? Having energy! This week has been crazy busy and I feel like I can't get enough sleep or rest. It all started last Saturday and hasn't stopped. I'm hoping this weekend I can get some rest.

Weekly Wisdom? Emotions can take over easily and things can get said in a way that isn't very nice or good for your marriage but make sure that when you are all calmed down that you apologize and explain what you were trying to say when you were upset. Pregnancy can make you feel all sorts of emotions at once and even let them get out of control sometimes but as long as we make it right our marriages will come out stronger in the end.

Day 2 of 31 Day to Clean

So I have told you the other day that I'm going to start 31 Days to Clean by Sara Mae. (For that post go to 31 days to clean post). So I'm finally on day 2 after several days in between. This will be the way it is for me because not everyday I will be able to tackle a big task, like day number 2, but I did it today and that is what counts. So what was day 2...clean the refrigerator and freezer (at least the Martha part) so that's what I did. I cleaned the refrigerator not that long ago but I figured I would just do it again and I'm glad. Just after about 2 months (maybe 3) it really needed cleaned again and I'm really happy that it looks really nice and I can find all the stuff that is in there again. I think that I'm going to put this on my To Do list every other month. I think that would be really helpful and that way it stays clean. I'm just going to put it in my day planner and when I have some free time on day I will do it that month. Sounds like a pl...

Baby Bumpdate: Week 35

35 Weeks! That means only 5 left!!!! Holy cow!!! I think I'm starting to freak out just a little!!! How far along? 35 Weeks! Yea! How big is baby? He's about 18 inches and just over 5 pounds. Weight gain? I gained a pound last week. Maternity Clothes? Of course. I'm living in tanks right now because of the heat. Just wish I had more shorts to wear. Stretch Marks? Nothing new. Just the ones from before and Monkey. Sleep? With this cold I'm not sleeping much. I'm getting a little better and able to sleep about 4 to 6 hours at night and then at nap time I'm able to get 1 or 2 more hours of sleep. However, I'm still exhausted especially because of the heat. It just drains all my energy. Even when I'm sitting in the shade under a fan. Of course it's only June so I'm not sure how this heat thing will effect me in July :/ Best Moment this Week? Monkey kissing my belly before he went down for a nap. It was so cute. He ...

Media Monday: How it affects my child

Media is neither good or bad. Last week I talked about media in our marriage and a little bit about our family and media but today is all about Rex and media. Rex loves cartoons! Right now he happens to be watching Veggie Tales while eating lunch. This is not a normal thing at all. I can't remember the last time he was eating while watching TV. Today we had a crazy time and he asked to watch a movie and I didn't have a problem with it. Plus it's Veggie Tales. We have a limit (during mommy in charge time) that he is only allowed to watch one movie/TV show each day and some days we don't watch anything. When daddy gets home things change and the TV is on within minutes of being home. Rex normally doesn't care that the TV is on because of our daily activities. He plays or helps me cook unless daddy is watching adult cartoons then he is more interested. This past winter I found us watching more TV than I planned ever to let my children watch. So once it start...
