Baby Bumpdate: Week 37

This one has to be quick. I haven't had time to get on here and get this written up. Before I start I would like to ask you to pray for Hubby's family. Grandpa isn't doing well and we aren't sure what is going on. We need prayers for the doctors to figure out what is going on but also for strength for all of us that are helping Grandma and Grandpa through the process. Right now he is in the hospital so they can try and figure out what is wrong.

 OK now for Goose!


How far along? 37 Weeks!

How big is baby? He's about 19 1/2 inches and almost 7 pounds.

Weight gain? Midwife said it's normal and good!

Maternity Clothes? Of course. Maternity pictures today!

Stretch Marks? Nothing new.

Sleep? I'm waking up about every 2 hours and having to switch positions but I'm actually feeling pretty rested except for last night with M being in the ER with Grandpa until after midnight. I'm feeling exhausted today!

Best Moment this Week? Watching Monkey have fun with his cousins on the 4th of July! He loved having them come down and playing in the sandbox and getting spoiled on sugar!

Movement? He's slowing down on how much he is moving, mostly during the day. Last night he moved around like crazy and I couldn't sleep because of it. He hasn't done that in awhile.

Food Cravings? I'm really not craving anything. This past weekend I kept seeing spaghetti on TV and it looked so good. Of course when I cooked it at home it wasn't as good as I was anticipating.

Labor Signs? No signs of labor yet but I am 1 cm dilated and he's at -2 station. So it could be soon or another week. 

Belly Button In or Out? In.

What I Miss? I'm not sure what I miss right now. What's more on my mind is what I'm going to miss once he is here. Being my last time being pregnant (unless God changes Hubby's heart towards having more kids) I'm really sad to see it end.

Weekly Wisdom? It sticks to not know when he is coming. It's very stressful to try and make plans that are very important but say, "I might have to cancel with you because I could go into labor at any time." 

Milestones? I'm considered full term! Ya! If Goose does come really soon his lungs are strong enough to survive out in this world!

Next Appointment? Tuesday! They will be checking me again to see if I am making any progress on the dilating front. Because they are concerned about my silent labor they want to make sure that I'm checked every week so we know how close I'm getting and so I know what to be looking for so I don't have Goose at home or in the car trying to get to the hospital. 

 I'm going to try and get a photo up but not sure if it will happen today. Check back tomorrow after I have a chance to get it up!

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...

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 ...
