How Far Along: 36 weeks
Size of baby: Baby #2 is the size of a crenshaw melon.
Total Weight Gain/Loss: I didn’t look at the scale at my last appointment, but I’m certain I’m near the 35 pound mark.
Maternity Clothes: All maternity in the picture above. Shirt, pants, and cardigan from Destination Maternity. I really want to be wearing yoga pants, all of the time. I need a good excuse for pajama day at school!
Gender: Its a boy!! I’m loving all of the sweet blue things we’ve acquired and that nursery of his.
Movement: Yes! He’s still quite the mover.
Sleep: Im waking up a few times thanks to the lovely leg cramps, then around 3:30 I’m wide awake.
Cravings: Breakfast foods, all of the breakfast foods.
Symptoms: Newest pregnancy symptom this week? Swollen feet. This is fairly new territory for me and I’m not dealing so well with the whole stay off your feet part. I have things to do and to-do list to accomplish before this sweet boy arrives and I need to be on my feet to get these things done. I’m trying to listen to my body, but come on I need to clean out a closet or something ๐
Best Moment this week: I had two baby showers this past week. The ladies that I work with threw me a great diaper shower (yay for a closet full of diapers and wipes). Then, on Saturday I had a shower with a few of my closest friends and family at my house. It was such a sweet shower and I had the best time chatting with friends and family and I opening piles of baby boy goodies. I am truly blessed with an amazing group of women in my life, and this week made it all the more obvious. I can’t wait for baby boy to meet them all!
And a few outtakes from our weekly photo session, BK loves talking to her baby brother and gives my belly tons of kisses for him! I was excited to see that Allen had captured a few on camera this week. As miserable as 36 weeks pregnant can be, I know I’m going to miss these times one day.

You look so great! I’m a couple weeks behind you and have had to give up high heels. So envious. Getting bigger and shorter is hard on me ๐
Jennifer says
I definitely pick and choose when to wear them, it’s not an everyday (or even all day) thing ๐

Those last photos are just adorable. Framers! That is wonderful about all of the new diapers & wipes. The necessities! Looking fab as always.

Thank you! I had no idea how many diapers we would go through, so I now know just how much those will come in handy! We’re almost there ๐
