34 Weeks

Wow! Time sure is flying by!! This week has been a blast! My hubby got home from his ship on Wednesday and it's been an easy transition now that he is working the day shift. We are in the process of moving and should be done with that in 2 days...just in time for Thanksgiving!

We went on a date and decided to go to Build-A-Bear to make Avelyn a teddy bear. Brandon actually thought it was so fun! He and I picked out the bear, stuffed it and even made tbe birth certificate. :) It sounds totally cheesy but I think B loved it so much! I mean, there aren't many ways for him to "connect" with the baby right now so this just made it a little more real for him. :)

Here's a pic we took at Build-A-Bear!

Here is one of B making the birth certificate. He was so serious!

 
How far along? 34 Weeks
Total weight gain/loss?  34-36 lbs
Maternity clothes?  ALWAYS!! Even some of these are too small now..very sad about that! But, you know, its almost over and I can lose it all then right?
Stretch marks? Still just those ones on my hip. Although there's some super skinny little lines on my stomach that I am HOPING are not stretch marks...it's really hard to say right now. Fingers Crossed!!
Sleep? Sleep is okay. I still get up about 5-6 times a night and lately I've been waking up around 3 in a night sweat!
Best moment last week? Making the bear with my husband!
Movement?  ALL the TIME!! I mean, doesn't she need to sleep??
Food cravings?  Hot Chocolate!
Gender? A sweet baby GIRL!
Labor signs? Just the Braxton Hicks right now!! :)
Belly button in/out? half innie half outtie
What I miss:  COFFEE!! and a Full night's sleep..although that is probably gone for quite some time anyway..
What I am looking forward to:  Our Dr. Appt. Wednesday where I find out her status.. it's hard to say her position because its just one BIG lump now..but I still feel kicking at the bottom so I don't think she's flipped.
