We cannot WAIT for our little Ellie to be here!!! We are so ready - though her nursery may not be just yet. :) just one more month to gland we will have a little tiny baby girl. Sometimes it's so hard to believe it! But all the onesies and adorable outfits covering our living room right now are making it much more real. :)
How far along? 35 weeks 2 days
Baby's size: the average for 35 weeks is 5 and 1/4 lbs... Pretty sure she's a bit bigger than that, but close
Maternity clothes? YES. Or just giant giant t shirts and sweats
Stretch marks? Sadly, yes. Have some pretty bad ones on the under side of my belly where most of her weight rests. Hopefully they will fade!!
Sleep: good in between the difficult and sometimes painful rolling over, and getting up to use the restroom. Getting to be not so much fun.
Best moment this week: picking out some clothes for her, seeing Clint fall in love with little outfits for her, doing the tiniest laundry ever and marveling athow small size newborn really is!! (have had wonderful showers since last post as well, so so special, we are so blessed!)
Movement: she's still a good little mover and never stops for too long, but definitely must be close quarters in there
Food cravings: Not really. Still drinking milk all the time. Wanting to cook.
Anything you loved before that you absolutely cannot eat anymore?: Nope!
Have you started to show yet: people stare at me in public as if I should not be out. They elbow each other and say "look at her" in Spanish as if I don't understand them. It's weird but kinda fun :)
Gender prediction: girl girl girl, our house is full of pink and ruffles and cuteness!
Labor Signs: nope, not a single Braxton hicks, and she is still super high up
Belly Button in or out? Flat/out. Stretched to the limit!
Wedding rings on or off? Off! Got another even bigger fake ring to wear. Ugh.
Happy or Moody most of the time: happy. Mostly very happy and excited. Happy tears threaten often, definitely have my moody moments though!
Weekly Wisdom: Newborn outfits don't look like a human can actually fit into them. More like doll clothes!
Milestone: not sure about her, but our to do list is finally starting to dwindle down. 4 weddings left, wrapping up our editing, nursery slowly shaping up, getting so ready!!

How far along? will be 31 weeks on Friday
Baby's size: who knows...i don't think she is the average anymore but if so, around 16 inches
Maternity clothes? Very much yes. And some maternity shirts are now too short as well.
Stretch marks? nope, thank goodness! let's keep this easy stretching up!
Sleep: Fine. Average. Not great but not so bad. Hips hurt and have to turn over a lot. Snoring a lot and loudly. Booooo.
Best moment this week: Sweet Ellie kicking after Clint talked to her. She loves her daddy!
Movement: Lots of movement, not as strong as before. I don't think she has enough room in there to really get a good punch in. I do occasionally notice an extremity poking out and its so fun to touch it and interact with her! There's a real little person in there!
Food cravings: Not really. This week I've been wanting sweets/baked goods. But who doesn't want that?!
Anything you loved before that you absolutely cannot eat anymore?: Nope! I've even cooked chicken twice this week!
Have you started to show yet: yep. i get comments like "when are you due, tomorrow?!"
Gender prediction: she's all girl! saw her again on the sonogram at 28 weeks. she is a cutie! we even got to see her sweet face. Looks like she's got my nose and Clint's lips! Love her!!!!
Labor Signs: nope
Belly Button in or out? in, but somehow it kinda looks out at times through shirts
Wedding rings on or off? Off! still wearing my substitute ring, even it is tight at times now. yikes.
Happy or Moody most of the time: happy. Mostly very happy and excited. Happy tears threaten often, definitely have my moody moments though!
Weekly Wisdom: I dont know! We are loving our birthing classes and learning alot. How bout that.
Milestone: Not sure but I am officially huge!! AT the sonogram they said she was 2lbs 14 oz and that was at 28 weeks! I'm thinking we have a big healthy girl in there, and she is probably pretty long too! We are starting to really want to meet her bad! Lots left to do to prepare, but we sure cannot wait to see this little girl!

25 weeks!
How far along? 25 weeks
Baby's size: 13.5 inches head to toe :)
Maternity clothes? Yes yes yes. Stomach shows if not, all shirts are now too short! and....just bought the largest bras in Victoria's Secret. not exaggerating. this is not cool!!
Stretch marks? nope
Sleep: still can't seem to wake up at a decent hour... but in the opposite way! 5:45 and 6 am are now familiar times to me. goodbye sleep!
Best moment this week: Laine and Jill got to feel her kick while they were home which was fun! I also get to feel her kickboxing sessions regular and wonder what in the world someone that little could be doing in there to be kicking and punching that hard! Started our registry this week, which was fun, exhausting, and overwhelming! (mom had to buy me a "maternity support" in the middle of it, basically a back brace that holds up your stomach. i proudly wore it all around the store, ha!). Seriously looking at cribs, strollers and car seats now, feeling more and more like real parents!!
Movement: yep, lots! she's even started to move some when I'm not completely still. very strong, energetic little one!
Food cravings: not really. trying to eat a lot of protein bc I'm told it makes you feel better and you need it anyways. Drinking a lot of milk and chocolate milk. mmm!
Anything you loved before that you absolutely cannot eat anymore?: coffee isn't very appetizing unless its something fancy from starbucks
Have you started to show yet: yes, very much so! lots of tummy touching and questions about baby from everyone :) its fun! (but also crazy to see yourself in the mirror and realize you look like that!)
Gender prediction: still girl :) we do have one more sonogram in the next couple weeks, so we can double check then!
Labor Signs: nope
Belly Button in or out? in, but somehow it kinda looks out at times through shirts
Wedding rings on or off? Off! still wearing my substitute ring, even it is tight at times now. yikes.
Happy or Moody most of the time: happy. Mostly very happy and excited but much more tired than i have been. Happy tears threaten often, definitely have my moody moments though!
Weekly Wisdom: This girl is going to be here before we know it!! Everything seems to be coming fast now. Also, she is somehow already so cute!! :)
Milestone: Losing the ability to sleep well. I guess I'm officially pregnant now. :) And little girl is past the 24 week viability mark which we are very excited about! :) Also, first Christmas of our lives with a little one (sort of). So much fun! We definitely got lots of pink stuff!! Thanks family!!

Baby Brock!
How far along? 22 weeks 3 days
Baby's size: 11 inches head to toe :)
Maternity clothes? Yep! Or just comfy clothes or longer shirts
Stretch marks? nope
Sleep: can't seem to wake up at a decent hour... But I guess that's normal for me, haha
Best moment this week: Clint and I SAW movement from the outside! It's also now fairly easy to feel if you are patient.
Movement: yep, this girl is very active when I'm still and quiet and seems quite strong already!
Food cravings: not too bad. Oj, sparkling grape juice, grapefruit
Anything you loved before that you absolutely cannot eat anymore?: don't tend to eat as much of the meat in things as I normally would.
Have you started to show yet: oh yeah! Showed our little girl off at a holiday party in a little black dress. Fun!
Gender prediction: found out it was a girl right before thanksgiving! So excited!
Labor Signs: nope
Belly Button in or out? in, but getting shallower by the day!
Wedding rings on or off? Off! Too nervous about getting them stuck! Wearing a fake in a bigger size, haha, it's awkward when I get compliments on it
Happy or Moody most of the time: happy. Mostly very happy and excited but tired. Happy tears threaten often, definitely have my moody moments though!
Weekly Wisdom: shooting weddings is much more emotional, but makes me pray often that this little one will have a hubby as loving as her daddy is. It begins!!!
Milestone: seeing and feeling big movements, loving it! Bought first decoration for her room and the cutest dress ever at h&m! So much fun!!
We love her so much already!!
