36 weeks- Ah!!





Special thanks to Gretchen for taking these beautiful pictures!  More to be posted on Facebook soon!

How far along? 36 weeks- my friend Allison has described herself as a ticking time bomb once she was about this far along... so we'll see when our little man decides to show up!
Baby's size? 
The internets say baby is the size of a honeydew melon and 17-18 inches long.  We're going to say he's still 6-6.25 lbs since the internets say babies this far are only 4-5 lbs...

Maternity clothes? Such a silly question now, but yes, I'm still wearing maternity clothes.
Sleep: No so much now that I'm itching...all the time...

Best moment(s) this past week: Enjoying the cool weather!  It feels cool in the morning people!  And when there's a breeze too!  So very excited!  Also, a sweet Haitian woman from my church brought over different foods to try so she can bring us what we liked best when the baby comes- yay for not having to cook dinner and yummy food from Haiti!

Miss Anything? Today, gooey eggs- can't wait to eat those after baby comes!

Movement: He's less violet with his movements but still just as frequent.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Not really...

Cravings: Again- gooey eggs!  With toast- oh so good!

Labor Signs: Some crampy feels yesterday morning and today, but still no progress according to Dr. appt today.

Gender: BOY! 

Symptoms: Still itching, still huge feeling, still tired everyday.
Belly Button in or out? It still pops a bit at the top- we may make it yet!
Wedding rings on or off? Off with the pretty pearly ring on!
Happy or Moody most of the time: Very moody... with the itching I just feel trapped in my body... blah...
Looking forward to: NO MORE ITCHING! Meet our little boy- it'll be such a change but I can't wait!
