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 just giggled afterwards thinking it was funny. And getting my mani/pedi that Uncle John and Aunt Cathy treated me to. It was very nice to just take some time to get pampered!

Movement? He is punching me like crazy but then he also pushes up with his feet right onto my rib cage. It causes a lot of discomfort and it doesn't help with my breathing at all. I'm still not ready to give up being pregnant but I do have to say that it is getting more and more uncomfortable. 

Food Cravings? BBQ Chicken! Seriously made it for dinner and lunch and can't get enough of it. At least it's a healthy craving. Then there is the shrimp craving as well. Can't get enough of that either.

Labor Signs? Nope! He needs to wait until after July15th.

Belly Button In or Out? In.

What I Miss? Bending over. I can't get my pants on easily and then there is the shaving my legs issues. I really preferred being pregnant in the season where no one but Hubby knew that I wasn't shaving my legs. 

Weekly Wisdom? When you are sick and pregnant you just have to realize that your dignity is something that you won't have. Peeing your pants is just something that happens. It's not the fun part of pregnancy that people talk about. Just make sure that you carry extra clothes with you at all times. 

Milestones? Kidneys are functioning and the liver can process some waste. He's getting all ready to come out and join us!

Next Appointment? Tuesday July 26th at 8:30am! Ugh! It was the only appointment that they had. After that all my appointments will be at 10:10am so I can miss rush hour traffic on the way there. I'm thinking about calling and seeing if they can change it to another time because it will take about an hour to get there.

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...

Changing My Lifestyle!

Well not only walking but just in general changing my lifestyle. I am currently overweight according to the doctors and the horrible BMI chart by 60 pounds. I seriously don't think that I will ever loose that much weight ever again. If I do great but not my goal because I want something attainable.  I have tried some many different things to lose weight and it just never works. Before I was pregnant I was right where I am now. My body has changed since I was pregnant but the weight is still the same. The good news I didn't gain anything after the pregnancy but the bad news is I still need to do something. So I'm going through the Made to Crave book and I love it. I have decided to change many different things about my lifestyle. I want to be able to have the energy to keep up with Rex and enjoy my life and right now it just doesn't seem to be everything it should be.  So here is what I have started doing...I eat only things God created. Fruits, veggies, healthy...

Frumpy or Fabulous?

Staying at home can create a sense of comfort. Allowing to stay in PJ's all day, enjoying just lounging of the couch and eating bon bon's. However for most of us homemakers we do not have this luxury of lounging and bon bon's. We have things to do with our children, house cleaning to do, and many thing outside of the house. Sometimes getting dressed in the morning just seems pointless. Excuses like I have to clean so why would I put on my 'nice' clothes or the baby is just going to spit up on me so I should just stay in my pj's since I will have to change later anyway. These are valid reasons on some  days to stay in our pj's but most  days we should get up and get ready just like if we worked outside of the home. It shows our husbands that we care about him and we try to make sure that we look good for him. It also shows are children good habits of getting up and getting dressed and ready for the day. If you read in Proverbs 31 you will see what a wif...
