32 weeks!

We're getting closer and closer and closer..... :) Another 8 weeks to go and I'm SO happy the warm weather has finally arrived!! I honestly had no coats that fit me! This week will be in the 70's so we are excited around here to experience more of the outdoors....now I just have to keep up with an active toddler!

I started wearing my maternity belt this weekend for times that I do a lot of walking. It definitely helps since gravity is currently not my friend. I'm having more pelvic pain and my belly is very stretched...so much so that at times it is sore! My belly button has way too many stretch marks around it and sometimes it goes numb...weird! I need to put cocoa butter on my belly daily to help my skin stretch easier. There also is more swelling in my ankles...the worst it's been is today:

For me, this is swollen since normally I have very skinny feet & ankles!

This weekend I washed and arranged Anna's clothes in her closet & worked on her baby album. This week I will be looking through MORE clothes of friends & family and attend a consignment sale or two. Yay! I visit my chiropractor on Wednesday and have my 32 week appointment with my midwife on Thursday, too. Here's my post about Eli at 32 weeks.

32 week fun fact: "She now has toenails, fingernails, and real hair (or at least respectable peach fuzz). Her skin is becoming soft and smooth as she plumps up in preparation for birth." (babycenter.com)

Before taking this week's belly pic, Eli took one:


Here's the one taken by daddy:
