Bumpdate: Week 34

How Far Along: Thirty-FOUR weeks!

Total Weight Gain: 27+ pounds... Not sure an exact number because I didn't go see the doctor this week.

Maternity Clothes: Same ol' same ol'

Gender: Baby BOY

Movement: Like a wild child! I finally started feeling hiccups - I probably just didn't recognize them before but now, it's clear what those little tiny, perfectly time pings in my stomach are.

Sleep: Still no problem sleeping whatsoever! Rolling over is a bit more of an issue...

What I Miss: Not. A. Thing.

What I'm Looking Forward To: Baby showers start this week and I could not be more excited!! It's about to get real as I can tell our house is about to be overrun with baby stuff... This will probably set my OCD into a major tailspin but I'll get it all under control in no time!

Cravings: Anything sugary or salty. I need to alternate back and forth so I can continue eating!

Aversions: Randomly, pesto. I have all the ingredients for this shrimp and zucchini pasta with pesto sauce and I've picked up food on my way home two days in a row just so I won't have to make it.

Other Crazy Symptoms: None that are new this week. I feel like an old woman as I tend to moan getting up or down, climbing in the car, etc. I'm not even that uncomfortable, I just have a hard time moving with this big ol' belly!

Daddy Update: Daddy went on a rampage this week! He hung pictures in the nursery, wired in his first chandelier (don't worry, it's a manly chandi if there ever was such a thing!) and he argued with a lady at Babies R Us until the lady gave him the discount he rightfully deserved. Daddy is getting stuff marked off the list and making momma one happy lady!

Best Moment of the Week: I feel like each little detail we work on in the nursery makes a huge difference - I cannot WAIT to post the pictures!! Just waiting on the bedding to finish and a few other odds and ends that need to be finalized. Cooper's arrival is becoming very real and we couldn't be more excited!

I prayed for this child, and the Lord has granted me what I asked of him.

So now I give him to the Lord. For his whole life he will be given over to the Lord.
