baby’s size: Winter Melon (Last Thursday she weighed about 4 lb, 2 oz.)

how I’m feeling: Finally really ready to have this baby! The nursery is decorated, the baby clothes are washed and put away, and the house is almost cleaned. I feel like everything is in just about in place and I can finally focus on bringing home another little one.

best moment this week: It has been a pretty low key week. It’s great to finally have the nursery done, Cullen is doing well sleeping in his own bed, and we have spent a lot of time just hanging out as a family.

what I’m looking forward to: We have a c-section scheduled for later this week. I can’t believe we are so close to meeting our little girl! I am so looking forward to seeing her sweet face and holder her in my arms!!!

baby’s size: Honeydew

how I’m feeling: Exhausted! We are are on week two of trying to get Cullen to sleep in his big boy bed and he has yet to sleep a full night. So that mixed with third trimester exhaustion make for one very tired pregnant lady.

best moment this week: I think it’s a tie between my baby shower on Saturday and my doctor appointment last Thursday. Out little girl was doing so well they decided I could wait another week before having her! I am so happy to let her have more time to grow!

what I’m looking forward to: Meeting this little girl! We are so close to being a family of four, and I can’t wait to hold this sweet little girl in my arms!

baby’s size: Coconut. At the ultrasound last Thursday, she weighed about 3 lbs 7 oz.

how I’m feeling: Ready to meet this little girl! I’m still a little nervous about what it will actually be like to have such a small baby, but after so many ultrasounds and doctor appointments (and so long being stuck resting at home) I am ready to hold this little one!

best moment this week: Our Easter Weekend was pretty awesome!

what I’m looking forward to: Having this little girl! We are only about a week away from being a family of four!

baby’s size: Butternut Squash? We have another ultrasound tomorrow to see just how much this little girl has grown.

how I’m feeling: A little exhausted and huge. I don’t remember ever feeling this huge with Cullen even though I was actually much bigger! And the fact that I’m back to not being able to sleep at night, I am always tired.

best moment this week: We had a blast having maternity pictures taken on Sunday. I can’t wait to show you some of them next week!

what I’m looking forward to: Easter weekend! I am so excited to see Cullen hunt eggs again, especially after how much fun he had last year!

baby’s size: Durian? Well, maybe a small one. At the ultrasound last Thursday, she weighed 2 lb 13 oz.

how I’m feeling: A little anxious about what could be happening over the next week. I have another appointment tomorrow and if things aren’t looking perfect with our little girl, I will most likely have to go to the hospital for steroids and early delivery of this little girl. At this point, they are not going to let me go past 36 weeks but are hoping to make it to at least 34 weeks. That gives us at most only three weeks before we have a new baby. I know everything will work out just fine and God has a plan, but the unknown, everything we have left to do, and the worry that comes with premature delivery has me a little nervous.

best moment this week: Cullen went with me to the ultrasound last week and for the hour or so leading up to the appointment, he kept saying “We going to hospital to get the new baby!” As much as I tried to explain it, I couldn’t get him to understand that we were only going to see pictures of the baby. But it was so sweet how excited he was!

what I’m looking forward to: We had to move our maternity pictures to this coming weekend because of the weather. I’m hoping I won’t end up in the hospital and we can still make those happen!

baby’s size: jicama? I have another ultrasound tomorrow to see how much she has grown over the past two weeks, but she is still tiny compared to other babies at this point.

how I’m feeling: Ready to meet this little girl! The braxton hicks have started, which is not always so much fun, and I am beyond ready to be able to do more than sit on the couch all day. But we have so much left to do to get ready for her arrival. So for the next (hopefully at least) five weeks, we will be busy getting things put together and organized and soaking up as much time with Cullen before he is not the only child.

best moment this week: The weather has been absolutely gorgeous the past few days. I have loved the chance to sit outside and soak up some sun and fresh air while Cullen runs around the yard like every two-year-old loves to do.

what I’m looking forward to: We are having maternity pictures taken this weekend. I’m hoping the weather cooperates and we can get some great family photos!
