37 Weeks

How far along? 37 Weeks
Monthly Check In: +26 pounds and feeling it.  At my Dr. appt today they said baby was 6lb, 4 oz, and that I can expect baby to be right around 7 lbs... I'm wondering how accurate that will be?
Maternity clothes? Of course, I mean at this point I'm trying to make anything work.  And even though I've told myself no more clothes since we're so close... I've still managed to find some cute stuff online (that I haven't ordered :)

Sleep: I think I got up seven times to pee last night before I fell asleep.  But still, grateful that my body will let me get good rest, I know others who have had it much worse.  P.S. If baby's movement is any indication of when he will be awake, I have a feeling he will be a night owl, he loves to start dancing right when I lie down to go to sleep.
Best moment this week: Had such a wonderful Thanksgiving and weekend with great food, shopping and the best company.  So grateful for my family.  On another note, I have officially started my Maternity leave! You should see my list of things to do... as much as I want baby to come now, I'd love for him to stay in another week or two and give me some time to make sure I'm ALL ready.   
Food cravings: My cravings were satisfied last week at Thanksgiving.  So so good. So good that I am going to attempt to make a turkey this week, never done it before so it should be interesting. 
Looking forward to: Crossing stuff off my list!  I'm almost there and think after this week I'll be totally ready for Baby B to arrive!  
Baby item of the week: I opened up my K-TAN baby carrier today to get it ready for baby and I must say I was a little confused at first as to how to wrap the baby in it but I think I'll be able to figure it out.  I also have a Baby Bjorn that I think Tim will love to use, truth is that was the one thing he requested.  His exact words when I asked him if he wanted anything for baby were "You know that thing that Zach Galifianakis wears in the hangover?  I want one of those."  Made his dream come true.  

The K-TAN carrier - can you see me in this?

Baby Bjorn - and Tim in this? LOL


Check out this family picture from Thanksgiving.  I mean really I should submit to an awkward family photo contest.  Dad was holding up the dog and mom didn't want anyone seeing the dog's pee pee so clearly she had to cover it, AND he's kissing her face.  I mean really, it doesn't get much better than this.
