3/4 of the way there!

How far along are you? 30 weeks
Total weight gain/loss? In "hold" mode till the next Dr's appointment
Maternity clothes? So I haven't worn my maternity suit as of yet but today I was at Target and it was on sale.  So I bought it again.  Ha ha ha.  And I'll return the full price one!  Super excited to save a few bucks.
Strech marks? Still none that I see
Sleep? Love my beauty rest :)
Best moment this week: James built the crib, dresser and glider. Only problem is the glider had an issue with it so we're exchanging it. Pictures to come!
Movement: Such a distraction. My mind is not on church at times.
Food Cravings: Don't really feel that I've had a "craving" yet ... nothing strange or silly that would make others go yuck!
Belly button in/out: In
Gender prediction: I think I'm going to give the ring over your belly trick a try. All these wives tales are so tempting.
Wedding rings on or off: Keeping them on
Happy or Moody: Happy! I've had an awesome week and the coming weeks are going to get even better.

Week 29

I'm behind schedule!  Only by a day though :)  Such a busy week and weekend, I'm not sure where all of my time went.  The coming weeks will keep the same pace.  Well, until the first weekend of October.  I'm trying very, very hard to leave our October calendar wide open so we can have plenty of relaxing weekends at home.  Let's see if my plan holds up!
How far along are you? 29 weeks
Total weight gain/loss? Will check in on this at the next Dr's appointment
Maternity clothes? Thank goodness for strechy material :)
Strech marks? Nope but I'm watching carefully. I have a feeling they will sneak up on me
Sleep? My body is starting to demand more again. 8 hours a night is just not cutting it!
Best moment this week: Completing our childbirth class and removing all the boxes from the nursery
Movement: I feel like my belly is in a constant earthquake motion.  Love it!
Food Cravings: Ugh. Not a good thing but this week I have decided that anything and everything sweet sounds amazing.
Belly button in/out: In
Gender prediction: Your guess is as good as mine
Wedding rings on or off: On as long as I keep up on my water consumption
Happy or Moody: Emotional is probably the best word

**Note: ignore the dirty bathroom mirror**

and 3rd trimester begins!

How far along are you? 28 weeks...where has time gone?!?!?
Total weight gain/loss? 3 pounds this past month
Maternity clothes? Bought a bathing suit today and yes I realize summer is almost over
Strech marks? Nope
Sleep? I'm spoiled, I get lots of it! Even had 11 hours of sleep on Friday night
Best moment this week: Scheduling a 3D ultrasound
Movement: Plenty of it.  Strange feeling when the baby turns and "squishes" my lungs.  Takes my breath away, literally!
Food Cravings: Stuck on fruit. I ate 4lbs of cherries this past week.  Insane!
Belly button in/out: In
Gender prediction: Still no clue or "feeling" on my part
Wedding rings on or off: On
Happy or Moody: Happy as a pig in mud! Ha ha ha
Weekly Wisdom: More like weekly advice needed.  What to do to motivate myself to work on my to do list?  Naps and movies are taking over my weekends!
