8 months!

How Far Along? 32 weeks tomorrow. Whoa, we are in the single digits on weeks!! This pregnancy has FLOWN by. I am relishing every movement and pregnancy perk, albeit I am feeling bigger and slower by the minute :-)

Maternity Clothes? Loving tights/leggings (and tall boots, of course) these days. My sis gave me a pair that I could live in! Seriously.

 

Weight Gain? Let's go with 25. Belly button is waaay out, and I've had some friends comment on it. Hahaha, the joys!
Like I said, I feel bigger than a house, but it's because of my second-born wanting to be held. I am cherishing those moments as well! But he's a whopping 32 pounds!! All of my family got onto me over the holidays for picking him up, but my defense is that he's only little once (even though he's not little, ha!) But my doctor reassured me it's fine, since I am used to picking him up.
  

Gender?  ???!! Sticking to our guns. We have names! Baby sibling will be named Will if he's a he and Elise if she's a she. So fun!!

Sleep? Sleeping well, as long as I have my nasal strips :-)

Food Cravings? Not really craving anything these days, and my appetite has decreased a lot.  One food I can't seem to stop eating is cereal for breakfast. I've been on a frosted shredded wheat kick as of late.

Movements? All.the.time. I feel this baby more than I recall with the boys. He or she is a mover and a shaker! This baby is definitely higher up, too. And he/she moves a lot between 10-11 pm and again at around 4 am.

Symptoms?  Heartburn still reigns, had to get on medication for it because it is has been almost unbearable :-( I am so over the dry skin issue as well.

Best Moment(s) of the Week?: Scheduling delivery date for March 4th, which is also my mom's birthday. Can't believe our littlest blessing will be here in less than TWO months. Wow...

What I am looking forward to: Trying to take it easy with the two boys, enjoying my time at home with them, and anticipating the arrival of their little brother or sister. Jameston is so sweet and talks all the time about holding the baby and wanting to help change and feed him or her. He got a little practice in over Christmas with his baby cousin Claire. It was so sweet!

So, this little guy seems to want to be like a big boy and has started going potty in his potty chair. Whoa, we were not ready for that!! I wasn't even planning on tackling this with him until AFTER the baby arrived. I am excited he's ready, here's hoping we can keep it up!
