34 weeks

Yep it's a week late.  Lot has been going on the past two weeks.  Hoping things will now be slowing down and I can work on getting caught up.  We had our family shower back home on 7/21/12 it was amazing and then had our friend shower/party this past weekend the 28th.   Hoping to do two big posts with lots of photos soon. Until then here are the stats from last week.  
 
 
Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: I am IN my 34th  week

Size of baby: Pineapple (19 to 22 in, 4.9lbs)
Maternity Cloths: Other than a few items, I am mostly wearing maternity cloths. 

Gender: It's a BOY!!!!

Movement:  He is still rocking and rolling!

What I miss: Sleep and being able to move with ease.
 
Cravings: Back to 1st trimester cravings.  
Symptoms:  I've started swelling and unfortunately as predicted, the sciatica pain has returned.  
 
Funny story behind the weekly photos below.   Kevin was working out with a friend of ours and he asked how I was feeling.  Kevin replied I was doing good, getting big. Some how the conversation turned to me reminding them of the Kool-aid man.. (All in good fun of course)  Well Kevin then asked if he bought me a shirt would I wear it....I  said possibly (not knowing where this was going yet) well the shirt he thought was a "must have" is below.  I found it hilarious, as did he.   Let me just say this was ONLY funny because I am pregnant....if he ever tries this when I am not pregnant it will not be as funny!

Week 33 7/11-7-17

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: I am IN my 33rd week

Size of baby: Honeydew (19in, 4.5lbs)

Maternity Cloths: Other than a few items, I am mostly wearing maternity cloths. 

Gender: It's a BOY!!!!

Movement: Kevin had his head on my belly the other night.  After a few moments of hiccups little man full on kicked Daddy in the head.  I think Kev was bit surprised by his sons mighty force! haha

What I miss: Sleep and being able to move with ease.
 
Cravings: Back to 1st trimester cravings.  Oranges and Mexican food.  Also had a MAJOR craving for wings and ice cream....both I have caved into.  Yum yum.

Symptoms:  Reflux is not getting any better and I don't suspect that it will be.  Also have had a terrible time with sleep.  Other than those two thing all is well. Not much longer!
 
Our 1st baby shower is this weekend we are excited to see everyone.   Maybe this weeks Prego Highlights post won't be late and I can do a combo post.  But I wouldn't count on it! 


My photographer was back! Yay!  Kevin had been in D.C. for a week of training.  I am very happy to have him home!

Had a doc app on Monday 7/9/12 baby boy is head down. Let's hope he stays that way.

This weeks bump pic is a classic in the mirror shot. 

This 4th of July holiday was started off by Kevin running his 1st race.  The freedom 4 miler.  




He ran it with our brother in law Jeff and they both did great, even in the heat.  I am very proud of them both!

Last little tid bit I want to be sure we document.  We finally got little mans crib up!! Now maybe I'll stop having dreams about him coming early and needing to sleep in a dresser drawer.  haha  I LOVE his bedding and can't wait to get the rest of the room together.
