Week 36 Update

Well now that we are moved (getting closer to being unpacked) and FINALLY have internet I can post another update (6 full days without internet is awful...good thing I still had my phone and could use some data to keep myself sane). Moving when you're 9 months pregnant isn't very fun......I literally had no motivation to pack/clean, so poor Steve did most of it. I'm happy that we are in our new rental house. It is actually fun to unpack and decorate because we can actually hang things on the wall and call this place our own for a while. We have our own garden in the back and I can't wait until the strawberries, raspberries, and grapes are all ripe enough to pick.
The baby's room is slowly coming together and once I'm in that nesting phase I'm sure it'll come together with it's finishing touches. The weather over here lately in Ontario has been good, but miserable. There has been sunshine everyday, but the temperatures are rising and it's been nearly 100 degrees for the past few days...and that is all that is in the forecast for the next few weeks. If I wasn't 9 months pregnant I would probably have a better attitude about it, but I literally am going to be keeping myself inside these next few weeks while I'm waiting for our baby to make his entrance into the world.

Finally onto the update after all my randomness and catch up on life lately.....

35 Weeks

36 Weeks

Our 3D image of our little guy..I can't wait to reveal our name we have for him! He had his arm in front/by his face again so it's not the best image but we can tell he has big lips. The tech said based off the 2D image he has a little bit of hair so far :) can't wait to find out what color it will be (I'm guessing blonde)! 


36 Week Facts: 

How far along? 36 Weeks 3 days

Countdown: 25 days!!!!!

Due date: July 28th

Baby's weight/size: About 6 pounds or the size of coconut/small watermelon

Total Weight Gain: 22 lbs. 

Maternity Clothes: Nothing but my leggings/skirts 

Stretch Marks: yes :( have one on my hip, one right by my belly button, and some on my legs/thighs 

Sleep: Good! We just got a new pillow top mattress and are loving it! This hot weather though is killing me and I can't really sleep without the A/C

Best moment this week: Seeing our baby during his 3D ultrasound today and finishing my last day of work yesterday

Miss anything: Being smaller/not so far along so we could have gone to Utah for our family reunion this weekend :( 

Movement: Always moving!!! I think he is officially out of space in there. 

Food cravings: Anything cold because it is so hot outside.

Labor signs: Had a few contractions yesterday....inconsistent though. My doctor said my cervix isn't completely opened, so I'm not dilated yet, but that could change any day. 

Belly button in or out: Flat/level with my stomach. 

Wedding ring on or off: On. As long as I'm not in the heat it isn't too tight. 

Looking forward to: My in-laws stopping by this weekend and visiting on their way home from Utah, our 3rd week of our birthing class next week, and finally being all unpacked and settled in our new home.
