37 weeks


how far along? 37 weeks
weight gain: let's just say we'll see what the doctor says at my appointment on Tuesday. It's hard not to snack when you're snowed in!
maternity clothes: I'm starting to get tired of wearing the same things over and over.
stretch marks: hopefully I didn't speak too soon after last week.
sleep: still sleeping like a baby, and thankful for it
best moment this week: telling a co-worker I'm ready for him to come and not second guessing my words.
movement: he's still kicking around a lot - I'll be surprised if he isn't an active baby!
food cravings: my appetite is out of control. Everything in the fridge sounds good to eat!
labor signs: still not feeling anything, which is fine for me. Hang in there baby let's make it to the end of the month!
belly button: i was wrong in my prediction several weeks ago that it was going to pop out. It's still an innie. (I was also wrong about outgrowing my coat - i can still zip that baby up without too much strain on the zipper)
what i miss: soaking up the sun in Dominica - I'd even put up with the sweat to feel warm without having a million layers on!
what i'm looking forward to: Justin coming home at the end of the week.
weekly wisdom: it is hard to let others do things for you when you know you can do them better. I watched this neighbor boy attempt to shovel out my car and the whole time I wanted to grab the shovel from him and do it myself - more efficiently and faster! i'm ready to be 100% self sufficient again!
milestones: baby Skweres is full term! (not that he's allowed to come until Justin is home and has taken his next liscensing exam)

I didn't think I had stretch marks either...until I used a mirror and looked UNDER my belly. Not to scare you or anything...
