It's Officially...

the longest I have ever been pregnant! 
(By about 8 hours!)
Ha. 
This is me at 36 + 6 with Hunter.
I told myself I wasn't going to "expect" baby sister to come as early as her brother did, and really hoped she didn't to avoid NICU time or any premature complications.
I told myself she would come on her due date, February 14th, but now Hunter's arrival date (36 weeks + 6 days) has come and I am sitting on the edge of my seat! 
I have everything ready to go, finished all my projects I had started and am physically SO ready to have her out. 
Now What?
Lol. 
I CANNOT imagine being pregnant for 40 whole weeks. 
Yikes. 
Please come soon sister.
Tomorrow is full term and if you are healthy and cooked well enough we are READY!


What are some things you suggest to kill time so I'm not watching the calendar?

PS. Here are a few more SEWING projects I have done in the last DAY to keep me busy.
(I am IN LOVE with knowing how to use my sewing machine and trying out new projects. They are not perfect by ANY MEANS but it's so fun to GO FOR IT and see what I can do.)
Maybe I should start a business!!??

Posts with details/HOW TO's for each project coming at a later date.
Staying up WAY too late to sew.

36 Weeks.


Yesterday marked 36 weeks pregnant.
I figured since Hunter came at 36 weeks and 6 days this might be the LAST post I get to do before sister is here.

This weekend we finished packing our bags, put the car seat in the car and put a "who gets Hunter" plan together to be as prepared as possible.
____________

How far along: 36 Weeks + 1 Day.

Baby Size: Approximately 18.5 inches long and weighing maybe around 6 lbs. About the size of a head of lettuce.
Dr said she is measuring a little larger then Hunter did this far along.


Maternity clothes: Mostly wearing A LOT of PJ's these days.

Stretch Marks: One new one ;( 

Sleep: It's getting so hard to sleep. I toss and turn all night, wake up to pee and it doesn't help that poor Hunter has been waking up in the middle of the night EVERY NIGHT for the last week.

Best moment this week: Seeing how excited Hunter is that baby sister is almost here. As clingy as he is because he knows she is coming, he can't get enough kisses and rubbing her and today he even tried to feed her a cracker. MELTS MY HEART.

Movement: Yes and she is definitely running out of room. Strong jabs all day long.

Missing Anything:  Bending Over. 

Food cravings: Cereal, goldfish, chocolate, Fresca. It's not what I SHOULD be eating but I can't stop. (I'm sure I have skipped a few meals this week just from filling up on one or ALL of the above listed)

Wedding Ring on or off: On.

Belly button in or out: Belly button is flat. It's popped out once or twice but gone back in. Most of the time it is just completely flat. 

Happy or Moody: Moody. I think most of my mood comes from anxiety. I am so anxious for little girls arrival; when she will come, how much time I will have once I go into labor, how will Hunter behave for who he's with, will my house be clean, how the heck am I gonna handle two kids? I have been going and going non stop to get everything done and stay busy and it keeps my levels through the roof. Poor Kev... Poor Hunter. Deep Breaths Kyla.

What have I been enjoying: Calling her by name :)

What have I been nervous about: Labor. Strange since I've done this before, but for some reason I keep getting the feeling it's going to be so different then before.  


What I am looking forward to: Getting to HOLD her. 
Grey Toms // Maternity Jeans: Ross // Patterned Shirt: Anthropologie // Cream Sweater: Forever 21

PS. I am DYING over her GOING HOME OUTFIT.
