Many apologies (to my mom) for this post's two day delay. In addition to the fact that our computer has turned psycho, choosing to not turn on/freeze up at random times and allowing us internet access only sporadically (just a few weeks from D-Day and we need to drop a load on a new Mac--what grand timing!), I have spent the past three days makeup-less and dressed in ratty painting clothes. I did, however, decide to shower and dress for church this morning, enabling me to bring you this 35 week, 2 day picture...
Pregnancy Highlights:
How Far Along: 35 weeks
Size of Baby: Over 18 inches long and 5 1/4 pounds. He is weighs about as much as a honeydew melon.
Total Weight Gain/Loss: 13.5 pounds
Total Weight Gain/Loss: 13.5 pounds
Maternity Clothes: As mentioned above, this week's wardrobe has primarily consisted of old party t-shirts from college and athletic shorts. Hot.
Gender: Boy!
Movement: Still very frequent and strong. I'm able to tell when he's flipped (not sure if that's the word?) now; I will feel his bottom and curve of his back on one side of my abdomen, and later it will be on the other side.

Food Cravings: Nothing too specific. Grapes again? Less and less room for food these days.
What I Miss: Being able to hold Kaiser and sing to him before nap and bedtime without having to stop to catch my breath!
Sleep: My sleep has been minimal the last couple of days, but it's because of staying up late working rather than Baby keeping me up.

Symptoms: Still having some intense foot/leg cramping here and there, and of course Braxton Hicks contractions.
Best Moment This Week: My daddy flying up here to help out with our basement. He's been so wonderful and worked tirelessly. Updates on his time here coming soon...
What I Am Looking Forward To: Finishing huge house projects that have been looming, a possible weekend getaway for just Brett and me, another ultrasound in a couple of weeks, meeting this perfect little person growing inside of me...a lot to look forward to in our final month!
