Week 35!

How far along? 35 weeks
Total weight gain: staying the same
Maternity clothes? Nothing new!
Stretch marks? Let's be positive and say no new ones have appeared
Sleep: not enough
Best moment of the week: Yesterday as I was playing the guitar, little one did a complete roll over in my belly (or at least it felt like it)... made me think s/he was saying "Not now, Mom. I'm trying to sleep!"
Miss anything? Not really
Movement: Lots and lots.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing
Gender prediction: with the dreams we have been having I'm confused, my BOY conviction is waining.
Labor signs: None
Symptoms: not being able to eat as much but eating a little more often
Belly button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? still off,
Happy or moody most of the time? Happy!
Looking forward to: I'm not sure why, but today I'm ready for baby to just BE HERE! I'm impatient to hold and kiss and snuggle my little one, probably because I was so snugly in my bed with the cooler weather. In my head, I laugh and know that I need to wait. Wait for baby to get chubbier (which is what we're working on this week), wait to move into our new house (which we hope to close on this week), wait to do more laundry or actually buy a car seat (which I am sure will happen within the next few weeks)...
But it's almost like I miss having this little one in my arms. Isn't that strange?
We aren't really ready for you yet, Baby, but I am sure excited to have you make your appearance!

Sleep: not enough
Best moment of the week: We had friends up in Michigan last weekend. Hanging out at the beach, enjoying GREAT company, eating tons of ice cream. It was the best.

Movement: TONS! I love every moment of it.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing
Gender prediction: boy...Chris joined me and has started having dreams that it's a girl...
Labor signs: None

Wedding rings on or off? still off, though I haven't tried to put them back on
