34 Weeks




How far along:  34 weeks
Gender:  Girl
Belly button in or out: Out.
Maternity clothes:  Still a mix.
Stretch marks: Still nothing new.
Sleep: I think I have a new personal record for the number of times I've woken up to pee during the night (5).
Best moment this week: My baby shower.  It was really nice to see everyone and we got more stuff than we know what to do with - literally, we are running out of room in our house.  We also have all of the nursery furniture now! Tyler is working on painting the crib (because I really wanted a white one). He's a champ. :) This week also marked our 11 year "dating" anniversary. We both agree it feels like it's been much longer than that. ;)
Miss anything:  Hoping my skin goes back to "normal" after Ellie comes - it's been breakout city over here for the past 8 months.
Movement:  She is certainly a wild child in there. I swear she is shy and can tell when people are watching or trying to feel her move though.  
Cravings:  Same as before. Lots of water (may be why I have to get up in the middle of the night so many times).
Queasy or sick:  Just big and uncomfortable.  Feeling like a turtle on its back trying to get out of bed.
Looking forward to:  Playing Easter Bunny next year. :)  Also, I completed my FMLA paperwork this week - if Ellie comes on her due date, I won't be going back to work until the week of August 10th!  Sounds like a long time, but I know it will fly by.  Not sure the timing could be any more perfect though.  I am definitely looking forward to spending some nice summer days with our girl.

Speaking of summer... we're also very excited that baby girl has a middle name!  Ellia Summer Noel - after my favorite (the best) time of year.  If she's anything like her mama, she'll definitely be a summer girl. :)

And just because I love this picture of my boys.  Ellie's room is their favorite - for now at least!
