33

This week, Avery Claire weighs about as much as a pineapple.

How far along: 33 weeks
Net weight gain/loss: up 24 lbs.
Maternity clothes: Yes
Stretch marks: No (fingers still crossed!!)
Belly button: a very stretched out innie
Sleep: Better this week than last!
Baby movement: Yes. She’s a busy little girl!
Food cravings: Hmmm….orange juice
Food aversions: Since I’ve discovered that Tums really do help with the heartburn, I’m good!
What I miss: Going out to eat with my hubby!
Looking forward to: We’re having another baby shower!! Some of our sweet Russellville friends are throwing us a baby shower, and a lot of our family is coming! We haven’t seen many of them since this summer, so we’re excited!
Best moment this week: Seeing Avery Claire on the ultrasound, of course! And our first baby shower!
Milestones: Today, Avery Claire weighs 5lbs, 5oz. Her skeleton is hardening and she’s losing more of her wrinkles. On the ultrasound today, she was working very hard at maturing her lungs. She can recognize music and really likes it – especially her daddy’s ringtone and the potty dance commercial (which we hear countless times on daytime TV)!
