36 weeks

How far along? 36 weeks today! Cant believe my baby boy will be here in 4 weeks or less (I refuse to believe he will come late...haha)

Weight Gain:  Somewhere around 30 pounds...wont know for sure until my next dr. appt.

Sleep: depends on the night....some nights I sleep really well....other nights heartburn takes over and I cant sleep at all.  Not to mention rolling over is getting harder and harder! This heavy baby is making that almost impossible to do haha I am sure I look pretty funny trying to roll over from one side to the other ;)

Best moments this week: Last week we got to see Greyson on another ultrasound and just seeing how big he was from our last ultrasound made me so excited.  He weighed in at 5.5 pounds and his cute little nose was squished up against my belly haha :) I sure hope his nose is okay! I am pretty sure he is trying to get out of my belly he is just  not sure where the exit is yet.  As of right now he is trying to get out of my side and you can see him push on my side over and over its pretty cute.  Sometimes when he pushes his foot out to my side I just hold his little foot in my hand and rub it...cant wait to hold him in my arms!! Also another best moment is that my best friend Erin had her baby girl Leighton, I cant wait to meet her she is so adorable!

Food cravings:eww food just seems gross to me right  now.  There is no room in my belly for anything else and every time I eat I feel sick afterwards.  BUT Greyson will be here before we know it so I am just pushing through day by day and counting down until I get to see him. 

What I miss:I really miss being able to feel my hands!! I have such a bad case of carpel tunnel and its extremely painful!  Everyone keeps telling me it will go away once he is born so I am really hoping that is the case!

What I am looking forward to:Obviously I am looking forward to meeting my baby!  And this might sound weird but I am really looking forward to experiencing child birth.  I mean I am not excited about the pain or anything but I just want to know what its like! You read so much about it and try to prepare and everyone tells you their own stories so I am just curious as to what my experience will be. 

Milestones: Well I am officially 9 months pregnant and in my last month of pregnancy so I would say thats a huge milestone! Greyson is hitting big milestones now by gaining around a half a pound every week! If I go all the way to 40 weeks with him he I have a feeling he is going to be a big baby! Also we pretty much have everything ready to go with Greysons nursery.  I have all his clothes washed and put away and we have his furniture up and ready to use! Now we just need a baby to go with it!

Pregnancy has been such an experience and I feel extremely blessed that God has given me Greyson as my son.  I just pray that I can be patient over these next 4 weeks and not complain about every ache and pain and over all uncomfortable feelings that the last month brings.  I cant wait to love on my baby boy!!

Here are some pics from the last few weeks:

*Me at 31 weeks

*My good friend Brittany had her baby Walker and I got to go down to Lexington and visit them!  Brittany and I grew up together and we are so excited that our boys will get to grow up together too!
*Diaper cakes from my shower "A Star is Born". They have Greysons initials on them, so cute!!

*So my last shower had to be postponed due to the fact that I was in a bad car accident the night before and ended up having to be in the hospital while my shower was supposed to be going on.  I was so upset but thankfully my friends were able to still have me the shower a few weeks later.  I am thankful Greyson and I are okay and I am so blessed to have so  many great friends in my life!
