33 Weeks & Bits About Our New Place

This photo was taken in one of the ladies' rooms at Parliament, because we've now fully moved into our new place and no longer have a large enough mirror for the weekly 'bump shot.' Jeff could take it for me, but with a demanding project just started, he won't be getting home until later in the evening. For everyone's sake, I decided to pass on posing in my pjs.

How far long? 33 weeks 

Baby size? over 19 inches and 4.5 pounds {We had our third and final sonogram last Thursday and were told our little boy was measuring within the normal limits, but on the upper end. The sonographer then said he was 4.5 pounds and that this was very reasonable because Jeff and me are... well, tall. Seemed to be a polite way of wording it. From what Jeff has read, our Little M is on track to be around 8 pounds. I'll take that. No offense Philip - kudos to my Mom - but I don't think I want to start off with a 10 pounder! ;)

Total weight gain? Unsure as our scale has yet to be unpacked.

Maternity clothes? An absolute must.

Sleep? Yes, but sadly, Jeff and I have moved from a king size bed to a double - which is slightly smaller than a queen. Thankfully, I'm still sleeping well but have lost ample space to stretch out.

Best moment(s) this week? Seeing our boy for the last time in utero! Catching up with Ben and Katy as they helped us move last Saturday {Thanks guys! And thanks again to Jacob for his help the prior Saturday!}. Also, meeting our next door neighbors. They too are expecting their first child - but a girl  and in mid July. They have a pet as well - a curious cat who visits our garden every now and then. Monk wants to make friends, but the cat doesn't stay around long - on the ground at least. He's happy enough to check Monk out atop the fence. 

Miss anything? Remembering simple things. For the way my memory has been working failing lately, I should tie 50 ribbons around each digit.

Movement? Yes - strong, fluid movements. I think we are getting close to recognising what Little M body part is protruding when he does move.

Food Cravings? Cold watermelon - yum.

Anything making you queasy or sick? Nope

Gender? Boy!!!

Labor signs? Nope

Belly button in or out? In and more flush with my belly. 

Wedding ring on or off? On

Happy or moody most of the time? Happy and somewhat stressed. We've got so much stuff out and about in our home. I'm ready to get everything in it's place AND get the nursery finished ASAP.

Looking forward to? Friday, the first day to my weekend. Hoping I have the energy for it to be a productive one around our new place. {Photo of front door below. I will do a post of the inside, including the nursery, once we are completely settled.}
