35 Weeks

How far along?  35 weeks

Total weight gain/loss: 28 lbs

Maternity clothes? Yup! My favorite store is Motherhood. They have the cutest clothes!

Stretch marks? Just a few

Best moment this week: Seeing all of my family!

Miss Anything? Ugh... I want to be able to get off the couch without help.

Movement: All of the time. He's a wild one!

Food cravings: Strawberries! It's been more like an addiction. And not just fresh strawberries. I crave frozen strawberries primarily. I think it has something to do with the ice craving thing.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope!

Have you started to show yet: My belly looks like a balloon that's about to pop.

Gender: BOY

Labor Signs: Not yet!

Belly Button in or out? Out

Happy or Moody most of the time: My mood-swings are actually getting worse. I think it has something to do with the stress of preparation.

Looking forward to: NOT BEING PREGNANT ANYMORE!!!!

This week my aunt, Rhonda, threw us the most adorable shower! I made Joshua come with me to this one (which he wasn't too happy about!). My Nanny made a super cute cake that my cousins decorated with EXTREMELY fat, sumo babies!! Haha!

All of the decorations were so cute! The popcorn filled buckets with "Rachelle's About to Pop!" on them definitely made me giggle and I especially loved the watermelon stroller filled with fruit!  

We played the ribbon game where everyone measures out what they think my belly size is and Joshua was nervous about getting that one way wrong! ;-) He didn't do too bad though. haha! We also played the bottle drinking game again which, as you can see, Josh cheated at and lost. Then I made Joshua open gifts with me (another task he wasn't too pleased about)! It was great having him there to share the attention with! lol

I was also able to see a lot of my family that I haven't seen in ages and Josh's mom, step-dad, and grandma all came down as well!
