Week 35

On Sunday, 8/29, I was officially 35 weeks down with 35 days to go!
Jeff's mom and sister threw us a wonderful baby shower at Lancer's in Eldridge on Sunday. It was so fun to get to see all of Jeff's side of the family and spend some time with them. Plus enjoy some yummy Happy Joe's pizza!
The rocking chair in the above pic is our amazing gift from my wonderful mother-in-law. She found the chair for us at an auction and then had it all refinished. Jeff's aunt Rosie made us the adorbale pillows too (the bottom one was made from the same fabric as my crib skirt). So fun! Can't wait till we get the baby's room all organized do I can get an idea of how it will all look together!!
A huge thank you to my awesome mother and sister-in-law for throwing us the baby shower. We had a great time!

A few more pics from the shower...

Here is my 35 week update:

Maternity clothes:  I wear the same five shirts over and over and over and over.... 

Sleep:  Still rather uncomfortable at this point.  I'm sure this won't change much anymore.  I did get to sleep in on Sunday morning though!!  That was GREAT!

Cravings:  Ice cream

Best moment this week:  The baby shower!

Movement:  Strong slow movements all over versus the old quick kicks.

Gender:  Boy!  No... Girl!

Labor Signs:  None yet...still Braxton Hicks contractions

What I miss:  My pre-pregnancy body

What I Bought This Week:  We got lots of new things for Baby P at the shower this weekend.  Only have one or two items we still need to purchase before the arrival.  Due to a few repeat items, and some things we simply just changed our mind on, I have some returning to do at Wal-Mart and Babies-R-Us this week.  But those returns/exchanges should allow us to get what we still need without having to spend a dime.  :)

What I Checked off my To-Do List:  We started our baby classes at the hospital last week (and just had our second class tonight).  I also had a breastfeeding class last week as well, which my awesome sister Mary came with me to.  I know Jeff appreciated that!
