38 Weeks...

How Far Along: 38 Weeks!

Size of baby: Baby C is around 19.5 inches long and weighing around 6.8 pounds.

(all according to babycenter.com)

Total Weight Gain: 36 pounds! Yikes! Up 2 pounds in a week!!

& I feel HUGE.

Maternity Clothes: Still wearing a mix of everything, although mostly maternity. Just regular jeans.  I'm at the point where I don't feel cute in anything .  My favorite shirt is a long sleeve black shirt from Gap Maternity.  I kind of wish I could just wear it every day.

Gender: BOY!! Baby Cullen!!

Movement: Feeling lots of little feet kicks up high, they are not in my ribs or uncomfortable.  I still just love feeling him move :)

Sleep: Sleep is still pretty good. I can only sleep comfortably on my left side. 

What I miss: This past week I've felt about as large as a house and I'm kinda missing being in shape, working out and wearing regular clothes.  I want to look and feel good about myself again and I know that is far off.  I'm sure all these feelings are normal.  And nothing brings a smile to my faster than just thinking about my baby boy.

Cravings: Nothing in particular, all food is still appealing to me! Hence the weight gain! ha!

Symptoms: Still having braxton hicks, although not very often.  I have some ligament pain and sharp pains down there at times as well.  After sitting at work and then standing to walk, it's a bit uncomfortable but that's expected.  Cramping has started as well, not often or for long periods of time though.

We had a doctor appointment this afternoon, no progress has been made and doc is just sticking to his word that Culley could come any time.

Although technically he could come anytime between now and 42 WEEKS....

I really want to have him sooner than later! 

I have no patience!!

What I’m looking forward to:

Meeting our little man!!!

weekly fuzzy phone pics...

I finally got my iron-ons from Etsy and made these two bibs and two onesies!

Cullen has the hiccups right now! He has them usually 1-2 times a day.  Poor little baby. 

SHOES and a purse...

I realized not long ago that my priorities have changed and buying BABY stuff for our Cullen is where I choose to spend most money these days ;)

I haven't bought any shoes in many months.  SO, I decided to get myself some new shoes for Spring/Summer and I finally got to wear a pair of them today.

From Kohls

Vera Wang wedges. 

yep, my foot is up on my desk ;)

I got the wedges for $3.74 after using some Kohl's cash and a 30% off coupon! 

I got these Elle shoes at Kohls as well!  They were on sale and I had the 30% off.  I have a couple of work shirts in this color and some dresses and jewelry I plan to wear them with.  I just love the color and ruffles and they are perfect for work!

I also ordered 2 pairs of sandals from Target, they were buy one get one half off a few weeks ago.  

These 2 pairs are sitting in my basement just waiting to be worn.

Can you tell wedges are my favorite!?!

I also got this pair of Steve Madden boots for 50% off.

I went on the Steve Madden website to order Billy a pair of boots and ended up getting a better deal if I bought a pair as well and we got free shipping.  I had to have the boots ;)  They might be more for next fall to wear with leggings and if I get back in shape I might wear them with shorts this Summer.  I can always wear them to work with capris too. 

Lastly, my new purse!!  

It holds a lot but is quite heavy without even having anything in it, ha!  

I need a new black purse as well or maybe a brown one...

I just haven't really seen anything I like recently. 

Have any of you?!

Keep in mind I'm a major bargain shopper and don't like to pay full price for anything ;)  

Spring/Easter decor....

Easter wreath I made!

I really dislike Easter grass after making this, I will never buy it again.  haha!

I thought the wreath turned out cute though.

Pretty flowers from my Mom...

kick-knacks, Billy's favorite ;)

All the candy now resides on top of the microwave because of a little puppy decided to get chocolate wasted.

He carefully unwrapped and ate about 10 dove chocolate eggs last weekend while I was napping.  He had been sleeping next to me but I guess he got up once I fell asleep.  He must have jumped up on the ottoman to grab each piece, then got down on the floor opened and ate the candy then jumped back up for another and another....

He was one sick pup after that :(

I didn't have to bring him in or give him peroxide because he was getting sick just fine on his own.

Thankfully, he was back to his normal spunky self the next day.

I hope everyone had a great weekend!!
