32 Weeks!!!

So I am late getting this post up (I am actually 33.5 weeks now).  And I cannot believe that our due date is coming so soon!!  47 days!  AHHHHHHHHH!  I feel like there is still so much to do, but also feel like we have gotten a ton done.  Casey and I took a breastfeeding class and an infant care class and this Saturday we will be taking a childbirth class.  We also got all of our Christmas decorations put up this past weekend which is a huge relief to have that done and completed.
Infant Care Class
Love having the Christmas Tree up!

Baby Satterfield even got a stocking!
As for the nursery, Casey got the bookshelves hung in the nursery and we got all the books put on there.  The little reading corner looks so good!!  I got a furry rug and accented it with my little rocking chair from when I was a kid.  I also did an arts and crafts project and spray painted one of my deer heads and framed it.  I am waiting on some pom pom garland to come in that I ordered to hang from the antlers.

We also got the dresser exchanged and I like the new one so much better.  I have gotten all the baby clothes washed and put away and tried to get the changing table set up the way I would like it.  We are still waiting on the glider to finalize the layout of the room.  Once the glider is in, we will be able to hang the rest of the decorations on the wall.  We got the ceiling fan installed so that last major thing (besides the glider) that we need to get is the rug.  And I cannot for the life of me pick out a rug I like to go in there.

This past month I had an AMAZING shower thrown by my closest girlfriends.  The theme was "Fall in Love with Baby Satterfield" and everything was so cute.  We got so many great gifts and we are blessed with such great friends.

All my wonderful hostesses!
Awesome Diaper cake
Cutest cookies ever!

This baby is definitely growing.  I feel like my belly has really popped this past month and I am starting to get uncomfortable.  The baby likes to hang out in my ribs which is always fun.  I am so ready to meet him/her!

Month 8 Update:

How far along? 32 weeks

Maternity clothes? Absolutely!  It is all that fits!

Stretch marks? Yessssssssssss :(


Sleep: Sleep is definitely getting worse.  I am up multiple times a night and then am having trouble falling back asleep


Best moment this month: Our Austin baby shower and getting projects completed around the house


Movement: OMG yes!  This baby is moving and shaking all the time.  I can tell he/she is running out of room in there

Food cravings: Still on my cinnamon toast kick.  Or really anything cinnamon.  Cinnamon rolls are also making an appearance quite frequently in my diet.  And lets not forget my all time favorite...pizza!


Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope!  


Missing anything: Wine!  I would love some wine especially during the holiday season

Have you started to show yet: Heck yes!  Large and in charge!

Gender prediction: Still leaning toward boy


Labor Signs: None at this point....besides the occassional braxton hicks here and there


Wedding rings on or off? I have found that if I just wear my engagement ring, it fits fine.  It is when I try to put my wedding band on with the engagement ring is when I have problems.


Happy or Moody most of the time: I am happy......starting to grow impatient though


Looking forward to: Weekly appointments start next week and we will get to see the baby again on my 36 week ultrasound!!
