How far along? 36 Weeks

Maternity clothes? Dresses or looser fitting shirts can be either- most everything else is maternity. Some of my maternity shirts are starting to get too short even. And to prove that point I got up from my desk and walked half way down the hall before I realized my tummy was showing by a good 2 inches. Just in time for a group of men walking by getting back from lunch to walk by me. Chalk it up to embarrassing pregnancy moment #585. haha

Sleep? Still not great. I’ve taken up sleeping on the couch which helps gives me a little more support but I sure do miss sleeping in my bed.

Best moment in the last 3 weeks? Had a nice shower/lunch with friends to celebrate her coming soon and everyone was so sweet- AND she has at least a few packs of diapers now.

Miss anything? Sleeping in the bed, rolling over without feeling like a need a lift to get me over.

Movement? Yes, she’s a very active little girl, especially when I’m sitting at my desk trying to focus! ;) Trying to soak up every second of it. I think I’ll miss it.

Food cravings? Not really anything too much. We had amazing cupcakes at my shower and since then I’ve been wanting to have another.

Anything making you queasy/sick? My vitamins. We went out for ice cream the other night and ate after taking my vitamins- let's just say I won't be having another banana split for a very long time.

Gender? GIRL! We are so excited to welcome another little princess into our family.

Labor Signs? Nope- OFFICIALLYscheduled for the 1^st of November. We have to be there EARLY Friday morning and the c-section is scheduled for 8:00.

Symptoms? My ribs are still killing me, especially at night. I think she's moving down a little though b/c I have to go to the bathroom just about every 5 minutes. haha

Belly button in or out? All the way flat, maybe out a little bit- I think if she were to give it a good kick it would just pop out.

Wedding rings on or off? On- getting to the point where it’s tough to take them off sometimes in the morning for my shower so we’ll see.

Happy or moody? Happy- getting so excited to meet this little girl!

Looking forward to? Meeting her in just 3 more weeks!! J Have some fun things planned for Aspen in the next few weeks.

Daddy moment? Foot rubs, back rubs, bedtime routine with Aspen, kisses and talking to my belly at night…he’s the best.

Big Sister moment? She asked me if she could call her “Minnie Mouse”. I don’t think she is even slightly joking. We have her big sister shirts laid out and ready to go when the time comes for baby sister to get here. She also helped me pack the diaper bag and my bag.
