Bumpdate: Week 36



How Far along: 36 weeks

Baby's size:A honeydew- Around 6 or so lbs!

Weight loss/gain: 23 lbs.

Sleep: 2, 3, or even 4 trips a night!

Gender: B-O-Y

Movement: He is totally running out of "womb" ; ) but he is still moving as much as he can!

Best Moment of this week: My baby shower and Dr. appt.  More on that below!

Looking Forward: To my last day of work!  Not too much longer to go!

Food cravings: Nothing!

Anything making you feel sick or queasy: Nope!

Symptoms: Still swelling pretty big in the ankle and foot region.  Zach is enjoying that a lot! Haha!

Dr. Appt:  BBS is officially head down.  When the Dr. felt around on my belly, he said he thought he was head down, but would definitely be able to tell when he did my cervical check... That confirmed he was!  I told Dr. B and the Nurse we all needed to say, "Amen!"  I was also 1.5 cm dilated and 30% effaced.  Baby's heartbeat was right at 140 yet again, and my blood pressure was good.  Now I'll be going weekly from here on out!

Workouts:  Ha. Ha. Ha. Walking around school all day doing my job.  House work at home. 

What I miss: Not much, but I do like being able to see my ankle bones!

Things that stink:Cankles

Things that don't stink: The fact that I am still pregnant, baby boy is HEAD DOWN, and I have a wonderful little family to spend my weekend with!

Labor signs?: Nope

Mama's Thoughts:I am praising the Lord that BBS is head down.  An answered prayer, because now we know that we can hopefully have a natural birth.  Still praying for that!

Daddy's Thoughts: He, too, was excited to hear BBS is head down!

Baby: He may not be happy about his cramped quarters, but he is having fun moving around to let Mama and Daddy feel him!

Valentine's Day and the Quickest Weekend Ever

Valentine's morning I treated myself to a heart-shaped chicken biscuit from Chick-fil-a.  They were BOGO free AND I got a survey for a free chicken sandwich.  That in and of itself made my day! : )                                                       Friday evening Zach and I tried to go out for Valentine's Day.  We thought we were early enough to beat the rush, but it turned out we weren't.   We ended up going back home with a quick stop through Donut Bank to get dessert and then we had a DiGiorno pizza and watched the Olympics.  Can you feel the romance? Haha.                                                                                                     Yummy Whoopie Pie!                                                                                          My Valentine! Saturday morning began gloriously at 9:20 a.m. It seems like it's been forever since I slept that late, but it was wonderful!  I met my friend, Jennifer, and he

Christmas Eve

Our Christmas festivities started with Zach's family on Christmas Eve!  We opened presents and ate!  I'll let the pictures do most of the talking!  As you can see, Christmas is so more magical when there are little ones to spoil! : ) Mrs. Claus house shoes from Nana and Poppy!  Mmmmm, paper!  We got Zach's dad a long magnet on wheels.  We hope he liked it!! Haha, it was one of those gifts that was more of a necessity I think!  She was excited!  We are glad she liked it!  We got Zach's mom a record player that is a 5-in-1 system!  Isaiah's sweater we got him!  Its pockets are in the shape of monkey hands too, so I couldn't resist how cute it was!  He is a cute little monkey too!  Book set from us!  Love If You Give A Mouse.... series!  He is saying. "Ohhh, paper!  I love that!"  Make-up set from us!  He looooved the paper!  Isaiah opening his Leap Frog laptop from us!  He lik

Turns out...

Third grade is not bad at all! The kids are still pretty sweet and are so excited for me to be there and I am excited too! I think it will be fun to see all that they can do and have fun with them. Yesterday I received 5 notes on my desk about how excited that I was there and about how much fun we were going to have. I think they are right! Hopefully I get the hang of them quickly, because I start teaching Science (Mon and Wed), Social Studies(Tues and Thur), and PE (Fri) next week!
