This picture at 34 and almost 32 weeks is quite a difference from the 24 week one here
How far along?: 31 weeks, 6 days
Maternity clothes: Still a mix. The dress in the picture that I wore for the VA shower is actually a regular medium from Target. I've been lucky to be able to get away with regular size summer clothes, or clothes in a large, instead of a medium so I don't break the bank with maternity wear.
Stretch marks: The same.
Sleep: On and off. Unfortunately, the nights or mornings that I could really just keeeeeeep sleeping, I have to get up for something. I suppose it's my body's way to prepare me for the very near future.
Best moment this week: My sweet husband and his comments about the bump; listening to Daniel talk to the baby; Finalizing the name (more to come here...wait for the reveal!); and of course, getting SO MUCH LOVE at our Virginia shower!!!
Miss Anything: My old shoe size. haha I want to wear all of my cute shoes with outfits, and it's just not going to happen right now. We're lucky that it's warm outside because flops are my friend!
Movement: He is a monster in there. Sometimes my stomach literally looks like it's been taken over!! It's very funny how sensitive he's become too, to things like lights, sounds and even the heat of a blanket. If I whip off a blanket after being snuggled up for some time, he DOES NOT enjoy the sudden chill on my stomach. haha
Symptoms: Swelling....ugh, the swelling. Hunger/thirst. Heartburn. Painful kicks and jabs to my organs and ribs. And my new, least favorite....fatigue...is it first trimester again?
Food cravings: Water..if that's a possible craving. haha Still the usual..milkshakes, protein, salads, fruit, and cashews.
Anything making you queasy or sick: The usual

Have you started to show yet: YES! The "guess how big baby is" game at the shower was interesting to say the least. Some people grossly under-estimated how big this bump is...or they were just trying to be nice. :)
Labor Signs: A little big of uncomfortableness down under.
Belly Button in or out?: Depends on the day still.
Wedding rings on or off: Depends on the day.
General Mood: Happy, overwhelmed with emotion, excited for the next two weeks of fun, anxious to get the nursery done, nervous for delivery/birth

Best advice this week: All of the good advice received at the shower. The host, Meagan, did little advice cards from mothers. There were too many good ideas to write on here!
Worst advice this week: Nothing really.
Exercise: Slowwwwwwing down.
Looking forward to: Our Ohio shower next weekend!! Birthing class the following weekend. Finishing projects for the nursery.
