Bumpdate: Week 38



How Far along: 38 weeks

Baby's size: a pumpkin ~7 lbs or so

Weight loss/gain: 27 lbs : (

Sleep: 3-4 times a night, but I had two extremes this last week as one night I only got up once (which was amazing) and one night where I got up 6-7! That was not as fun! But I am sleeping pretty well!

Gender: B-O-Y

Movement: He is pretty much out of room, but he still is moving a lot! He just feels so big! We never get tired of feeling of him, though!

Best Moment of this week: It's my last week of school! My poor cankles and feet can't take it anymore, so I will be bidding my students adieu tomorrow!!!

Looking Forward: next dr. appt to see if there had been any more progress. Now that I am finished with work, I am fine with him coming anytime!

Food cravings: still good old pineapple! And I would really like some Cheesecake Factory cheesecake, but apparently I'm not allowed to drive to Louisville to get some! 😑

Anything making you feel sick or queasy: Nope!

Symptoms: cankles and swollen feet.

Dr. Appt: I was still 2 cm dilated Monday, but am now 70% effaced! Progress is progress! Just a waiting game!

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

What I miss: I truly mean it when I say nothing. This pregnancy has been a dream come true and an answer to our prayers. God is blessing us so much!

Things that stink: nothing much! If anything, I don't like the idea of not knowing when I'll go into labor, just because I don't particularly like surprises! But, I'd much rather go into labor than have to be induced, so that is our prayer!

Things that don't stink:  having a baby shower at school tomorrow and then my last shower with Zach's side of the family on Saturday! So excited! Also, the fact that we will probably be heading to the hospital in the near future! (As in the next couple weeks... Not today or anything!)

Labor signs?: some cramping, but other than that, not a ton. I do know his head is indeed low, as I can feel it sometimes when I'm walking! Zach says my waddle is cute! ; )

Mama's Thoughts: I think I finally feel "ready" or more than I did now that work is over. I'm ready to see BBS being held by his daddy! I'm pretty sure my heart may explode from the love I'll feel!

Daddy's Thoughts: He is ready for BBS to be here. He has been for a while I think, but he also wants BBS to wait until we get everything done with the old house first. Guess we'll see!!!

Baby: He has no idea how many people are waiting out here to love him! He also has no idea how much stuff he already has!!! ; )

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

Ten on Thursday

1. Zach is on Spring Break this week! Even if it is just from his one class, we still enjoyed it! I actually got to have him with me all last night! 2. I am almost done with my first week in third grade. So far, so good! The kids seem to really like me and I'm becoming rather fond of them as well! 3. I was working out last night and accidentally kicked Nellie in the side of her head. She is okay, but Zach may still be dying of laughter! I felt awful and was trying to pick her up as she was trying to scurry away from me. She must have thought I did it intentionally! Poor baby! She got lots of hugs and kisses after that though! 4. We have kept our sink free of dirty dishes for over a week now! This may not sound like such a feat, but trust me, when you don't have a dishwasher, it is! 5. Tomorrow is the "Spring Fling" carnival at my school. I am going to help set it up after school, which should be fun! 6. Warrick County School Corporation announced this past week that t
