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.

Happy Father's Day!

Today is father's day and most people are getting together and celebrating with family. Dads, grandpas and uncles all celebrating together the joys of being a father. Maybe getting a chance to relax and enjoy just sitting around watching the kids play and being surrounded with family. That's what father's day has always looked like for us. We would always gather at my parents house. First, with my grandparents when I was growing up for dinner and a day of enjoying being together. Then as I grew older my sister and I would make sure to spend the day with our dad. Then we got married and had kids of our own and the tradition continued. We would bring all the kids and enjoy BBQing at my parents house enjoying time together. This year things are different.We can't just jump in the car and head over for a BBQ. We can't sit around on the couch or on the patio talking and laughing together. This year we are 12 hours away from where I've always been for father...

Grab the button, link up, follow along or just read!

Week #2 on THM

Well it's officially the end of week 2 on Trim Healthy Mama! I have tried some more new recipes from the book and from pinterest and I'm having so much fun with it. I also order some xylitol online to save money. I didn't realize how much sweetener I would be using but when you can make sweets for any meal or snack through out the day you can use quite a bit. Favorite Meals this week E pancakes from the book! Yum! I added in frozen berries to them while cooking and they were great and the boys loved them too. They got to have the added whipped cream or syrup on theirs. Fat Stripping Frappa! OMGOSH! This is going to be my go to summer morning drink! I can see myself making one of these up first thing in the morning to get my day going and then enjoying a yummy breakfast 3 hours later. Soon as warm weather hits Hubby's schedule will be packed full daily so my mornings will start early, like 5am early! So having a breakfast at 8:30 will be perfect timing! Cheese ...
