If we could read the secret history of our enemies, we would find in each person's life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility. -Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Beauden-36 Weeks


How far along? 36 Weeks 
Baby is the size of a... Melon

Maternity clothes? Yep.  Gap has been my friend.  My favorites are Gap Body oversized t-shirts, camis and maxi skirts.  
Stretch marks? I found 1...the little bugger.  
Sleep?: Sleep....ha!  No, not sleeping great. 
Best moment this week: Ben and I setting up Beauden's room.  Ben set up the crib, installed his ibaby and re-arranged his room 3 times.  I dyed his sheets, washed EVERTHING, and organized his diapers etc.  
Miss Anything? Being able to do things on my own and sleep.  
Movement: I can tell he is running out of room, but I love that I can grab a heel or knee on my right side.  So fun!

Anything making you queasy or sick: I am losing my appetite but nothing is grossing me out.   
Gender: Still a boy :)
Labor Signs: Lots of contractions.....but I'm not buying real labor yet.

Belly Button in or out?  Although he was strong, my belly button has been defeated by karate kid.  
Wedding rings on or off? Real wedding rings have been replaced by my cameo.  
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy!!!  But sometimes moody.....lol
Looking forward to: Delivering a healthy baby boy, Lord willing.
