How far along?: 36 weeks, 2 days
Quality of sleep: I feel like one of the only activities I'm good at these days is sleeping. I'm strangely very use to waking up a few times in the night to use the bathroom and reposition to get comfortable. The other night I slept 10 hours straight and I woke up in a very weird state, I felt like something was wrong because I hadn't gotten up at all in the night.
Best moment this week: When Ian and I were poking around in Aubrie's room, laughing about how cute and tiny her socks are, trying on her little body carrier (that was hilarious, let me tell you), getting her car seat ready and what not. It was surreal - thinking that she will be her by the end of the month, in that car seat - wow! Ian also woke me up this morning with breakfast in bed. A hot egg sandwich, grapes on the side and a cold glass of milk. It was such a pleasant surprise. I am SO thankful for my husband, he makes me feel so loved. I ate my breakfast and went back to bad for 2 hours - it was lovely. That was another 'best' moment this week. (I love Ian!)
Movement: I've had a few more kicks to the ribcage - that hasn't been too fun but, I LOVE feeling her move. I love watching my belly as she moves around and laying in bed at night trying to fall back asleep she seriously entertains me by all her movements. Ian swore he felt her foot the other day, it felt like a longer lump to me, but maybe!
Food cravings / aversions: Eating. Another activity I'm sure good at aside from sleeping. I'm not too set on specific foods, I'm just hungry. I like meat and cheese a lot. I do not like being hungry, haha :) That's all for food.
How's mama?: Excited. Excited. Excited. Tired. Achy. I've been distracted by my discomfort and I want to be more focused on the blessing God has given me by carrying a baby into the world and how good He is to me, us, all the time. How I can be distracted from His goodness and faithfulness reveals to me the depth of my sinful heart and draws me to His grace and peace. I want to rest there forever.
What am I looking forward to?: Well last night while Ian and I were watching Monk, I got bored and decided Aubrie doesn't have enough cute headbands so I made her a few. I used an old tee-shirt and cut, sewed, braided, scrunched and twisted up some pink headbands for her. I'm looking forward to putting them on her little head, kissing her face and being her mama!
Weight gain: I'm sharing this information because I'm confident I will lose it all within (hopefully) 6 months of Aubers being here, haha :) Anyways, I'm up 32 lbs. GEEZE.
