36 WEEKS!

How far along?: 36 weeks
Total weight gain?: 16 lbs. (which I am pretty proud of)
Symtoms?: Swelling feet!!!
How big is baby?: Estimated @ 6 lbs. 12 oz.
Sex?: Boy
Maternity Clothes?: I do still love them. I need a few summer things but refuse to buy them to only use for 3 weeks!
Sleep?: I am sleeping so well. The matress we bought last year was a GREAT investment!!!
Energy?: SLOWING down!
Movement?: I am thinking this baby will be laid back. He is so lazy, but he gives just enough kicks to remind me he is still there!
Food Cravings?: I am so thirsty all the time. I love anything really cold! Especially Dentons Strawberry Juliuses
What I am looking forward to?: Finishing up the nursery and honestly holding my baby boy!
Preparations?: If you know me you know I have made MANY list, and I am constantly checking them off. I am down to the last minute things I need to pick up before the big day.
Best Moment this week?: Jonathan had Thurday and Friday off and we spend a great 4 day weekend together! I have been putting a lot of pressure on our weekends together, because I know it will only be the 2 of us for a little while longer. We had a great time together and got so much done!

On Friday I had an ultrasound at my regular doctor. They estimated Jon David to weigh 6 lbs. 12 oz. (a week ahead). They went ahead and set my induction date for June 14. Three weeks from today I will be holding my baby. It is honestly just starting to seem real, I am going to be a mommy! After my regular Dr. appt. we went over to my mom's friend's office to talk to her. While we were there she went to see if their 3D tech was available, and we were able to see our baby in 3D. It looks like he has really full lips and sweet chubby cheeks! The tech said it looks like he will need a haircut when he gets here, so we will see! Mom's same friend came over yesterday and took some maternity pics for me. I can't wait to see them. I am hoping to post some before Jon David's arrival!

So sorry this blog is so long. I have been a total slacker! Lastly, I wanted to post some pics from my friend shower on April 24. I am so thankful for my dear, sweet, beautiful friends.
