One Month

How far along? 37 weeks

Total weight gain/loss: not sharing- under 200. 

Maternity clothes? gotta love 'em

Stretch marks? so far so good

Sleep: uncomfortable. I have the sleep number set at 25 so I am essentially sleeping in a hole.

Best moment this week: the baby's room is ready for her!

Movement: lots

Food cravings: milkshakes-- loving Wawa's chocolate banana smoothies

Gender: team pink

Labor Signs: nope- and still holding at 0 dilation.

Belly Button in or out? so far out- it is not cute. Skelly loves to lift up my shirt and push it in. 

What I miss: went to a MNO last night and missed drinking wine with the ladies. 

Milestones: I am going back and forth between being so ready to meet her and feeling like we are not ready yet. Also feeling guilty because I am not as involved in this pregnancy because I'm so busy with Skelly. Can't wait either to meet my new niece!! Also, in typical J. fashion he has decided to renovate our bedroom so everything downstairs is a giant disaster which is stressing me out. He thinks he'll be done by next weekend- but that is cutting it very close for me. He's painting today- so I will update on that- but at least this time I'll have a finished bathroom to labor in if Baby M. comes sooner than anticipated. 

Almost ready!

Dear Skelly,

You are 26 months now- and a few days but at this point you know how awesome I am at posting on this. Your poor sister will probably end up with a year update when she's two. Anyway, this is all about you and you are all about you right now too- which makes us laugh....and cry.
You are talking up a storm- you still repeat everything we say to you- and your go to response is always a resounding "ok". You have started to reply "I love you Momma/Daddy" when you are told how much we love you. You say, "ok, I cute" whenever we tell you how handsome or smart you are. You love to somersault all over the place. You just did it one day- We think you learned it in school but it makes you so proud and happy to bounce back up and yell, "TA!!"
You love breakfast and particularly love to eat with your girlfriend at school, Lex. It's one of the only ways I can get you out of the door in the mornings. Your favorite foods are cheese, milkshakes and fruit. Pretty typical since that's all I ate while I was pregnant with you.
You can count now- you don't actually count things most of the time but love to count out loud. You generally count in this order
2, 3, 4, 6, 6, 6, 6, 8, 9, 10!!! I'm not sure what you have against the number 1, 5, or 7.
You sing Ba Ba Black Sheep very well.
You love school buses, fire trucks, Elmo and the garbage truck.
You are simply amazing my Skelly-O-Taur.

Love,
Momma

Happy Birthday my sweet boy. It has been an amazing two years. Here's to many many more. We love you more than we ever knew possible.

Best moment this week: J can feel the baby now

Movement: lots

Food cravings: cheese

Gender: team pink

What I am looking forward to: snuggling this little bundle. Was holding my neighbors granddaughter who is about 8 weeks old and she was just precious. They said she only sleeps during the day- so that part I am not looking forward to.

Milestones: Skelly pee peed in the potty!!! TWICE!
