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...

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...
