38 weeks

38 weeks can't wait to meet our little pumpkin!

How far along? 38 Weeks

Total weight gain: up 30 lbs
Maternity clothes? oh yeah
Stretch marks? none yet!
Sleep: not terrible this week, I have been more tired than ever, so I'm sure that is why
Best moment this week: just soaking up every last bit of being pregnant ..laying around feeling her move & throwing back all the snacks I can get my hands on. We also got a surprise ultra sound and saw some hair but she kept her sweet little hands in front of her face the whole time! Dr. estimates her weight was 6 lbs 2 oz and 7-7 1/2 when born but thinks she may come after her due date :( 
Miss Anything? so many things...but I know I will miss my baby belly more than all of them at this point!
Movement: oh yes she is a little wiggle worm and mostly makes my belly look pretty lopsided, I think she just loves to stretch and stick her little bum out! Can't wait to see that on the outside, or as Maisy says, "can't wait to see Stacie's baby buns!" haha
Food cravings: sweets (surprise!)
Anything making you queasy or sick: just sweaty garlic girl at the gym!
Gender: Girl 
Labor Signs: Nope. A few braxton hicks lately..but otherwise I get the vibe that she is pretty cozy in there. She wiggles around SO much though I like to think she is packing her things and getting ready for her big debut. LET'S HOPE! 
Symptoms: swollen hands and feet at times.
Belly Button in or out? out at times but still mostly flat
Wedding rings on or off? on
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy & EXCITED to say the least!
Looking forward to: Due date! SO ready for her arrival!!!! :)

wood working

I bought Jess a wood working class for Christmas and he built us this beautiful hamper!  I got a sewing machine for my birthday and sewed the laundry bags for the inside!  I love it!!

I think Milo thought the bags were for him!
