How Far Along: 32 weeks! 

Size of baby: A squash. I can't believe it. That really sounds huge. But I know when I start writing watermelon and pumpkin I guess a squash will sound small. 

Sleep: I pee a lot, all throughout the night, but besides that not too bad. I think I've been wearing myself out so much during the day and don't let myself nap, so my body just has to rest throughout the night. I have no choice. 

Total Weight Gain: 32 pounds total weight gain, that's if I say I started at 153.. so you do the math ;) I really shouldn't gain more then 40-45 pounds total though. I really do not want to get to 200! Yikes. 

Symptoms: Swollen feet! I think that's gotten worse. I was worried I had preeclampsia  but I don't, blood pressure is actually great. I am such a worry wart. Just big ol' belly, but still feel pretty good. Get winded easily, but overall I've been pretty lucky. 

Movement: Went to the doctor yesterday and got scared because you weren't moving as much, so now I am trying to do my "kick counter" more often. He did an ultra sound and I felt like it took forever for you to move, but at other times you move all the time. So again I am just a worry wart. But keep it up baby girl. Keep on moving!

Maternity Clothes: No more, trying to clean out my closet and just use what I have. No more shopping. 

Go-to eats: OK, those chocolate muffins I mentioned last post? Well they still taunt me daily. I need to stay away from salts to keep my swollen feet down, but it's hard. I try and eat more salads, but really just eat what I crave. Since the house is finally done we can start cooking again at home. But we haven't really done that yet. The house is still in shambles because things are all over the place. But we're getting there.. slowly..

Best moment of the week: Rinee's wedding! OMG it was amazing. Probably the most beautiful wedding I've been to. It was quite the weekend. Rehearsal and cocktails on Friday, wedding on Saturday and brunch on Sunday. It was really great seeing such good friends. And meeting Maxwell! You're future friend. He is a cutie pie and Jen gave me some great advice about having a baby and being a parent. Sunday night we had dinner with Uncle Alan and Sarah, which was lovely. Brian and I were planning on exploring Boston on Sunday night and Monday, but the wedding weekend was so exhausting we mainly slept. Which is what we both needed. Didn't take many photos, but here is one from the rehearsal dinner and one from the wedding:

Gender: Ella, I am thinking Ella. You feel like an Ella to me.. 

Workout: Eh.. have to walk a lot, but nothing outside of that.  

What I’m looking forward to: The house being put back together. We're almost there! And my showers. I have 2 coming up. One on August 2nd (family) and one on August 9th (friends). 

Milestones and stressors: Just need to relax. The amount of stuff we have in our house stresses me out a lot and causes me to get angry with Brian. But I just need to remember to breath and smile. You'll be here soon, but not too soon, so we still have time before for your arrival. But I can't believe you'll be here in less then 2 months!
