33 Weeks!

As I look up at the ticker at the top of my blog, I feel more anxious that the time to meet our little girl is so near.  The baby on the ticker is SO close to the 40 mark it's crazy!!! I can't wait until she is here and I get to see my husband hold her, and obviously I cannot WAIT to hold her and know she's healthy.  Here are a few updates on the pregnancy:
Size:  She is now the size of a pineapple and should weigh around 4 pounds and about 17 inches long.  I can definitely tell she is growing and running out of room in my belly, her kicks and punches are getting painful, but it lets me know she is still doing great :).
Weight Gain: I may stop revealing this if it keeps going up, but so far a whopping 23 pounds, woah, I am always hungry so I definitely know everytime I go back to the doctor it will be higher and higher haha.
Sleep:  Sleep has been on and off the last week or so, I have had some really bad spells of nausea and it's usually at night and keeps me awake.  I also think that her kicks are waking me up in the middle of the night.  The last 2 nights though have been great, I've actually made it until about 5:30 both nights until having to pee!!
Appointment: My next appointment is October 14th and they will do an ultrasound to see if she is still upside down, and of course have my regular checkup.  We also have our baby care and breastfeeding classes this Thursday night, yay! :)
Symptoms:
Heartburn, heartburn, heartburn....it's terrible
Nausea, I think this is worse now than my first trimester!!
Backaches-I'd love to know what kind of nerve she is laying on to cause my lower left back to hurt all the time!
No swelling yet, so still doing good here!

Overall, still love being pregnant, but I am ready for my body back!!
Showers: We had our first baby shower on the 17th and it was WONDERFUL, it was at Kim's house and Elizabeth, Tina, Kim P, and Lauren Bailey all pitched in and did a fabulous job with everything!! Emery got so many great things and we are so blessed to have such wonderful friends to shower our daughter with great gifts.  See below at all the goodies we got!!
We now have a lot of stuff in our nursery ready, pics to come soon!! You guys know me, I am OCD and want the nursery looking right before I post picutres, so here is a sneak peak below :).
