Gender: It's a BOY!! (Grayson Dees)

Cravings: not too much- can't go wrong with veggies and dip

Movement: I think he's dropped in the last few days-  which shows that we're getting closer!!

How's momma: doing good! still no migraines! Keeping my diet healthier, it's super hard to exercise- today I took 2 little naps- i'm tired! I'm having some awful swelling in my right leg- not so much in my left.  Its super uncomfortable.  I'm even waking up with it :( proof the boy is coming soon!

Best Moment this week setting up for christmas! big relief to have this done before he gets here!!

What I am looking forward to:  we decided to induce on the 28th! a week from this wednesday. The day is getting closer! can't wait to see this precious little guy!

Maternity pics

My sweet sis-in-law Rissa was so kind to take some maternity pics for us this past weekend. She did such a great job! we just love them.  It's fun to look at how our family is changing and growing. 

35 and 36 weeks

Pregnancy Highlights

How Far Along: 36 weeks

Size of baby:  18.5 in long and around 5.5 lbs

Maternity Clothes: yes

Gender: It's a BOY!! (Grayson Dees)

Cravings: i'm sick of food.  i'm tired of figuring out what to eat- the swelling and the heartburn make it hard-

Movement: he's not moving as much because of the lack of space- but i still feel his hickups and when he hits my ribs :)

How's momma: doing good! still no migraines! Keeping my diet healthier, not missing my daily exercise, and trying to keep stressors away has definitely helped.

Best Moment this week getting some things done for the boys room.

What I am looking forward to: starting my weekly appointments-  I had mine today and it looks like i'm dilated to over a 1 and about 80% effaced.... 

Fall Festival

Our church did a fun little fall festival for halloween this year.  Roman was so excited to be there and to get to participate with everyone. He was clark kent for halloween but was quick to explain he was really Superman.  :) We found some glasses for ty- he then became "clark kent's dad" :)

I just love these pics.  it's blowing me away how much he is growing up before my eyes.

A few months ago, we took rome to his first movie theater experience.  He LOVED IT!
