2014 Weekly Portrait Challenge

Week 16

This week we are celebrating Easter!

We had a beautiful day celebrating the resurrection of our risen Lord, Jesus Christ!
Our morning was filled with Easter baskets and pajamas, beautiful scripture, homemade resurrection rolls, and we shared our afternoon with family.
It was a beautiful Christ centered day and I hope that your family was able to enjoy the same.

35 week pregnancy update

Wednesday, April 2, 2014

35 week pregnancy update

 
 

How far along? 35 weeks!


Total weight gain? up +7 from my pre-pregnancy weight
(-16lbs lost/+23 lbs gained back/+7 lbs up from pre-pregnancy weight)

Maternity clothes? yes but the shirt in the picture is not >
 
Stretch marks? none this pregnancy

Sleep: getting up three to four times a night to go to the bathroom

Best moments this week: Making it to 35 weeks. The girls were born at 34 weeks so I feel good knowing that if she comes early that she will be ok.
 
Movement: sleeping a lot but moving good. she prefers my bladder.

Cravings: sweets. cupcakes are my favorite.

Gender Predictions: pretty in pink

Labor Signs: Braxton Hicks

Belly button in or out? still an innie but almost to the surface

What I miss? getting up easily without my husband laughing at me. at least I am laughing with him and he always offers to help me up.

What I am looking forward to? The next few weeks as a family of six. Soaking up as much as I can with our family as it is and with Evan as the "baby" of the family.

Weekly wisdom: If you do to much to soon you will have very little to keep you busy in the last few weeks.

Milestones: 5 weeks to go! She is measuring approximately 5 1/4 lbs and 18-22 inches long!
The size of a honeydew melon! Almost 30 days left in the countdown!
