34 weeks AND COUNTING

How far along? 34 weeks- woo hoo!
Total weight gain: Uhm, you're rude.
Maternity clothes? Barely fitting these days- the belly is officially giant!
Stretch marks? I believe I should be allowed to go to a high school and show 16 year old girls some of these horrific markings on my body. I believe that I, alone, could make teen pregnancy rates go down. 
Sleep: That thing between potty breaks and Kaleb (sweetly) waking me up, asking me to change positions because of my snoring? Yeah.
Best moment this week: Watching my belly, not realizing it had been moving the whole time. Seeing little limbs poke around my belly through my shirt! <3 LOVE!
Miss Anything? Sushi- REAL bad. Sleeping on my tummy.
Movement: Yes! Have you ever put an angry cat into a pillow case and slowly made less and less room for him? No? Ok, me either... but I assume it is a lot like this. 
Food cravings: Anything sweet. Cookies and Cream ice cream is always a winner. I will also day dream about the Little Debbie confetti brownies. NOM!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Heartburn suuuuuuucks. 
Gender: boy
Labor Signs: Braxton Hicks randomly- lots of tummy-tightening moments that linger longer than I hoped for. 
Symptoms: Is waddling a symptom? LOL. Back pain has increased severely and I have never been so easily out of breath, even with my days as a chain-smoking bartender...
Belly Button in or out? Flat! So awkward- it is just GONE.
Wedding rings on or off? The real rings have been gone for months. Replaced by a very real looking duplicate set that Kaleb said I should just keep and sell the real ones. NO WAY, dude.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Depends on who you ask ;-) I think I'm doing pretty good! But I know I might snap a little easier these days. Kaleb named the baby Grumpy Gill before we knew what we were having. It has a whole story about a fish named Gill who gets the grumps. Pretty cute, or REALLY mean once you figure out he is talking about ME! hahaha!
Looking forward to: Holding my sweet baby boy in my arms <3
Oh, did you want to see how ridiculous I look in 'non-maternity' pj's? 
ENJOY:
