31 week chalkboard

Dear Sweet Little One,
We're finally able to count down the weeks until your arrival with the fingers on our hands and we couldn't be more excited!

How far along: 31 weeks + 1 day
Gender: Little baby girl <3
Name: Waverley Violet
Maternity clothes: Yup.
Best moment this week: The nursery! Curtains are up and clothes are washed, hung in the closet, and put away in the dresser. We literally only have to put up some shelves and the closet organizer and then we're good to go. Nesting this early is going to pay off :)
Worst moment this week: Between the snow forcing us to have a 2 hour+ drive home on Wednesday and my first emotional breakdown of this pregnancy, the worst moments of the week have been plentiful. I'm happy to move past them and start fresh!
Miss anything: Ohhhhh just a few things lately. Let's see...I miss being able to walk or run up the stairs, pick up and wear or carry Pemberley, bend over without discomfort, and I really miss not having to pee every 30 minutes. You know...just to name a few things.
Movements: Baby girl likes to sit high and to the right, just like her big sister did. I get frequent little love kicks to my rib cage, but as much as I wince...I love them :)
Cravings: Fruit - apples, pears, and strawberries. Iced decaf sugar cookie coffee from Dunkin Donuts.
Queasy or sick: Feeling better from my cold, thank the Lord.
Looking forward to: Getting measured at my appointment on Feb. 2nd. I'm anxious to see how Waverley is measuring because she feels a lot smaller than I remember Pemberley feeling at this point.
Wedding rings on or off: Still on! Minor victory!
Belly button in or out: Raleigh says I still have an innie, but I have my doubts. Looks flat from where I can see (which, granted, is limited, but whatevs.)
Stretch marks: Nada
Labor signs: Vivid dreams about labor, but no signs other than Braxton Hicks contractions when I do too much.

Daddy and I managed to snap this cute picture during the brief shitstorm snowstorm last week. You were in there, just wiggling around! I wonder if you'll grow up to be a little Colorado snow bunny? (I know your Gigi and Papa G would LOVE that!)

Love you always tiny girl,
