How Far Along: 38 weeks and 6 days!
Size of baby: A pumpkin. Oh my. 

Sleep: Since I am done with work, I sleep when I want to! So sometimes I take naps, sometimes I got to bed late and wake up around 9, it's been super nice having that flexibility. 
Total Weight Gain: 36 pounds. So since the last post, a month ago I've only gained 2 pounds. Which is good. :) So don't think I'll hit 200 whoppers. Whew! 
Symptoms: Pee all the time, but that's nothing new. Hips still hurt at night and just feel heavy. Harder to move around; to get up off the couch, get out of bed or get out of the car. But hanging in there. 
Movement: Yes! Been moving. I guess you're not suppose to be moving as much since there is hardly any room in there now since you're getting so big, but definitely keeping an eye on your movements. I love it when you move. 
Maternity Clothes: At this point I am wearing what I got. Just feel big. Things are fitting nice and snug. Same as last post, just wear what I have and trying to be comfortable. 
Go-to eats: Dad's been cooking! He's been making yummy dinners that I just love. The other night made delicious roasted veggies and filet mignon. But still craving those sweets. 
Best moment of the week(s): Being my first week off of work has been amazing. Just not having to worry about work stuff and just focusing on the baby and relaxing. Got 2 prenatal massages, got a pedicure, got my hair done. Brian and I stayed at the Dream Inn on Wednesday night. Just a nice relaxing week. Taking advantage while I can! 
Here are some pics recent pics:

Gender: Ella and Addison are our top two contenders, still but I like Ella. 
Workout: Walked a mile with mom and dad on Monday, and went swimming. Might try and go swimming today. But other then that lots of exercise is not so easy at this moment. 
What I’m looking forward to: Meeting you!! I am getting anxious, excited, nervous but I can't wait to see your cutie face. 

Milestones and stressors: Can't believe you're due in a week. What?! That's so crazy. I wonder if you're going to be on time, early, late? I just hope you come out healthy and with no complications. Even if it's painful, I am of course scared of that, but I just want you to be alright. I love you already so much.
