33 weeks

I am 33 weeks this week!

Only 7 more to go!

Excuse the terrible picture quality! I need to take hubs to a photography class :)

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 33 weeks

Size of baby: Baby Russell is the size of a Honeydew melon! Holy Cow!

Total Weight Gain/Loss: Gained about 24 pounds! Yikes.

Maternity Clothes: Of course. That’s the only thing that will cover my ever expanding mid-section.

Gender: It’s a boy!

Movement: All day and all night. I have a mighty mover and shaker on my hands. It has been so fun feeling a for sure foot or booty or back poke out. Sometimes all at the same time.

What I miss: I miss being comfortable. They say the last few weeks are the hardest and they aren’t kidding.

Cravings: Ice, water, cake, chocolate milk,  food…ok-just about anything sounds good these days!

Symptoms: Indigestion, restless leg syndrome, swelling feet-just the normal 33 weeks pregnant stuff I think.

Best Moment this week: Hearing the Doctor say that if we went into labor in 4 days he wouldn’t stop it. That means that we are so close! Not that I want him to come right now (I have a nursery to finish) but if he did, he would be just fine!

Hello Bubba,

Bubba is what I call you in my head for some reason, so little boy if I call you that when you come out you are just going to have to go with it! This week your awesome granddad, you will know him as Papaw, sent me a picture of the most beautiful crib I have ever seen! He has worked long and hard with his bare hands to make your bed and I think you are going to love it. We are all working very hard to get things together because lets face it, time is ticking and sooner rather than later, we will meet! Oh what a day that will be. Your daddy talks all the time about how he is so ready for you to be here (as we all are.) But the Lord knows what He is doing so you hang tight until just the right time. We will be patient until our eyes meet!

I love you little guy!

Mommy
