Lord of the ring-less

Its official...wedding rings are now off! Wearing my band on my necklace :)

35+ weeks and I'm starting the sleepless, swollen phase of this journey!
I'm over pregnancy but we are still so busy unpacking and trying to put together his nursery.

It feels like this little dude could be here soon, but then again I have no idea since this is my.first time at the rodeo! Hang in there at least another week or two little guy, we really want you to get here when you are a little more chubby and we are ready for you.

No labor signs yet. Symptoms are sore back from unpacking, feeling out of breath easily at times, a tiny bit of cramping, restlessness, a little swelling of my hands but nothing major, and heartburn from hell! Other than that I am fine!

Hospital bag is packed!! Need to get car seat back in the car since we took it out to move. We are finally getting settled in the new house. I even made some meatballs to freeze for after baby craziness and cookies- a Double chocolate chip oatmeal sugar cookie. So ridiculously good.


Time to try and sleep!

I need to get some meals prepared too. But, my mom will be here for a month and a half, so that will help. She can cook or I can while someone looks after the baby.

I've had my rings off for over a week now and I'm only 25 weeks :S. Really, it's fine most of the time but by the end of a long, warm day my fingers are quite swollen, so my husband bought be a chain to wear them around my neck so I don't have to worry about taking them off mid day. Also, now I want a cookie :)

Did you freeze the cookie dough for after the baby arrives? I'm planning on cooking and freezing several meals. I would love to freeze some desserts too, but I'm not sure if they would be yummy after being frozen. If you know better fill me in.
