39 Weeks 4 Days

How far along? Baby O2 made it to 39 weeks and 4 days and then we met Cade Mac Olivier 
Total weight gain? 25 pounds
Maternity clothes? Was able to finish the pregnancy still mixing maternity bottoms and tanks with non-maternity cardigans, dresses, and jackets.
Stretch marks? Thank you to both of my children (and 3 bottles of Palmer's cocoa butter lotion) for not giving their mother any stretch marks.
Sleep? Sunday was spent only sleeping a couple hours until contractions hit from 2-6 am.  Then I started getting ready for work and they went away.  The other nights before delivery day were spent sleeping great.
Best moment this week? Obviously that would be Cade's birthday :)
Miss anything? Nothing- I knew this was my last week of pregnancy and spent lots of time rubbing and watching my tummy move as our baby squirmed inside of me.
Movement? Very low movement getting ready for delivery day.
Food cravings? Still the sweets.
Anything making you queasy/sick? Not a thing
Gender? Until Baby O2 arrived I was still guessing girl... more to come on the birth story post!
Labor Signs? Major contractions Sunday night into Monday morning and then contractions here and there every day up to delivery day.
Symptoms? Tired, slight heartburn, and some hip/leg cramps. 
Belly button in or out? Out all the time 
Wedding rings on or off? On the whole pregnancy this go around!
Happy or moody? I wake up happy and go to bed happy every single day thinking this could be the day we meet our little love!
Looking forward to? Exact same as last week- Meeting our baby and seeing Cole become a big brother.  Can't wait for our family to be complete!!
Daddy moment?  Anytime I'd tell or text Trent that I was having a contraction he would get all excited right along with me hoping it was the beginning of the real deal.  
Big Brother Cole moment: With the nice weather the few days before the baby came we made sure to get out and about with Cole to enjoy the pretty evenings.  We took some wagon rides, played on the driveway, and he rode his scooter full blast.  Can't wait to see both of my kids on that driveway playing together someday!!
