1. How far along are you? 33 Weeks. (Only 49 more days!?)
2. What fruit/veggie is your baby? Pineapple!!!! I've been waiting for this moment. But seriously, 17 inches and 4.25 pounds.
3. Symptoms: Swollen feet. Officially removed my stand-up desk today. Swollen fingers. Lots of pee breaks. Nothing I'd complain about though - feeling like me / great.
4. Total weight gain/loss: 21 pounds. I went from start to 31 weeks gaining 13 pounds. Then I went crazy and gained eight in just three weeks. The doctor asked what I would attribute it to, and I said all the cake. But seriously, between anniversary trip, 30th birthday and 'Birthday Baby Q' - I had a little too much fun. My total weight gain is suppose to be in the 20-25 pound range so only 3/4 pound per week for me here on out.
5. Sleep: Sleeping better than a couple weeks ago. I'm out so cold Hank is like a ninja in the morning... I don't even know he's up showering and all that. Hope I keep it up.
6. Cravings: Nada
7. Aversions: Nada
8. Best Moment of the Week: Well, of two weeks ago was definitely our 'Birthday Baby Q.' It was a gorgeous day for a lawn party in the company of my favorites. We photo boothed, saw who could chug beer out of a bottle the fastest and judged a cutest baby contest (crafted with Play-Doh). We ate barbecue and all the fixins,' enjoyed all the cake, were surrounded by pretty decor and opened delightful gifts. It was a great day celebrating 30 years + Leighton Hope. Also, my totally ah-mazing temporary employee that started today. It's a good feeling knowing that someone is as excited to do my job as I am each day. Oh, and having the nursery finished. Tour coming soon.
9. Gender: Girl.
10. Belly Button In or Out? In. I asked the doctor if he thought my belly button would stick out, and he said he hadn't gotten that question before (!?!) but that I have a deep belly button so I should be good (but of course added not that it could never happen). There's always a but - just to be safe.
11. What I Miss: Margaritas and queso. And Jimmy John's. Same things different day. I'll go back to that time thing to... Having all the time in the world to "get ready" but can't even believe we're under 50 days.
12. What I am Looking Forward to: Checking off the rest of our to dos. Putting all the baby swag together. The hilariousness that is a birthing class. A very Carolina work shower.
13. Milestones: Being noticeably pregnant. You can't miss it. Someone asked me the other day when I was due, and I said, I'm not pregnant. I'm trying to get someone on that (so bad I know), but he said, someone already told me that you're pregnant... So ,that "joke" didn't work that time.
14. Exercise: Swimming laps. This week. For real.
15. Maternity clothes: No. I can't wait to where my 'Birthday Baby Q' dress to a wedding next weekend though. Seriously so excited. I love that thing in all its flow-y, maxi, neon glory.
