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...

The ABC's of Our Family

I got a great idea from this lovely  blog  about doing a ABC photo book through out the year. Each week taking one photo that goes along with a letter. I have seen lots of great ideas for different photo blog ideas but all seem like to much work and something that I know I wouldn't be able to do. This one seems reasonable for our crazy life.  So to start off I have chose a great picture that I took of Rex and M playing together one day when he got home from work. Rex is so ADORABLE in this picture I just knew this was what I had to use! Plus I already know what I'm using for next week even though the picture hasn't been taken yet.  So here it is.......ADORABLE Rex playing with his Daddy! Oh I just can't get enough of this guy. Also as a little side note to how adorable he is...he kept posing for the camera once I got. He didn't care that Mommy was watching him play and wouldn't even look at me but soon as the camera was out he had to keep turning and...

Bikini Body Mommy Challenge Update!

So we are starting week 8 (I think). It's been a few weeks since I have officially sat down and updated on how I have been doing. Week 6 I did pretty good. The 4 am workouts were starting to wear on me so I decided to try and get a workout in after my hubby left for work but before the kids got up. Some days that went OK and other days not so well. I did however get several workouts in with the boys awake and they went pretty well. Monkey tired to join in with me and it was quite fun to watch. Of course he couldn't keep up with the workouts and took many breaks but it was fun to have him involved. This week I plan to do cardio days at 4 am in the gym because they are easier than trying to complete in the house. But for the non-cardio days I will do them in the house in the morning. That way I'm not completely exhausted everyday. Now for week 7. I have no idea even what the workouts were for last week. I didn't even look once! I have good reason though. My hubby h...
