34 weeks

Really... 34 weeks. That means there is only 6 weeks till my due date. That is CRAZY. I still can't believe it.

Lots of things have happened in the past two weeks!

~ I had both of my baby showers. I feel so blessed by my friends and family! This little girl will be the best dressed baby of the fall. I seriously think I will have to change her outfit several times a day if I want her to get through all of the clothes!

~My mom made the baby bedding for the crib! It turned out AMAZING! I just LOVE how it looks. Here are some pictures!


It is girly, yet not all pink and purple! 
~Then my mom and I started making the wall art. It isn't up yet but here is a preview!



The name will be in the middle once it is done being painted! Isn't that just too cute though!

~Today I got my shipment of cloth diapers in! I am very excited about this. I know it will be challenging, and more different than disposables, but I think it will be great for our family! Here's the loot!  If you have any tips and tricks about cloth diapers, PLEASE send them my way! I have no idea what I am doing! :)


~My hubby has been working REALLY hard to get all the furniture painted and ready to go! I forgot to take pictures yesterday when he was working on it, but let me just tell you... it looks AMAZING!! I can't wait to show them off and get them in the room! I will post pictures soon! 

Any who... Here is the update on Abigail! 

Everyones comment when they see me now is that I am blossoming. HA
Pregnancy Highlights this Week:

How Far Along: 34 weeks

Size of baby: {weight of} a large cantaloupe

Measurements: 19-22 inches, 5.5 pounds

Baby Milestones: Fat layers are filling out the baby. The central nervous system is maturing, as well as the lungs. 

Best Moment this week: My baby shower! It was such a blessing to have women pray over Jeff and I and Abigail. 

Gender: girl!! Abigail Grace!

Movement: HOLY MOLY is this child moving. Poor girl is running out of room and this momma is paying for it. I don't just feel occasional kicks and movements anymore. I feel elbows, knees, hands and feet protruding out of my stomach. You can literally see, and feel them. It is the craziest thing I have ever felt!

Food/Drink Craving: My chocolate kick is over... give me some meat! haha! Mainly ground beef. It sounds so good every meal of the day.  

Sleep: Sleep has improved a little from two weeks ago. I just now have to sleep with my body pillow, an additional pillow to hold on to, and a pillow behind my back. Oh and don't forget a pillow for my head. Jeff makes fun of me every night!  

What I am looking forward to: finishing painting furniture, organizing and setting up the nursery. 

Symptoms: Is having to go to the bathroom a million times a day a symptom? haha! I am tiring out a lot quicker here the past few days. I have also had more heartburn. 

Well thats all folks!

Let me know if you have CD questions. I will try to help with what I can. Chandler has used them about 2 years and we just started Audrey last month. We use Bum Genius too.
