4th of July Camping Trip

Have I said before how much we love to camp?  Well, we LOVE to camp and the 4th of July is no exception!  We book 6 months in advance and choose a different State Park each year.  This year we ended up at North Higgens Lake State Park and had 5 sites in a row filled with family - 23 people in total and we had such a great time!  It was almost like a mini family reunion!  Even though the weather was super hot for being as far Up North as we were (think high 90's all week) it was still so worth the sweat to be able to spend quality time with our family - we had amazing food (mostly cooked over the fire all week thanks to my cousin Jeff's new cooking contraption - way better than a tri-pod cooker), we spent a lot of time swimming and boating on Higgens Lake, biking around the park and just hanging out.  Here are a few pics to recap our week.

32 Weeks

How far along? 32 weeks

Baby’s Size: Baby is about the size of a large jicama - so aboutu 3.75lbs and 16+ inches long.  I was measuring 32.5 weeks at todays appointment.

Total Weight Gain: 24lbs - Today at my 32 week OB appointment I weighed EXACTLY the same with #2 as I did at 32 weeks with Aiden - talk about crazy!

Bellybutton: It looks like a turkey timer that popped saying its done, lol. 

Stretchmarks: None- yay!

Maternity Clothes: Oh, yeah!

 

Gender: Team Green!

Movement: Yes! Especially at night when I am trying to fall asleep - baby thinks bed time is play time and turns into a little party animal!

Sleep: Still doing OK - sleeping mostly on my side now as back sleeping is starting to get a bit uncomfortable, still miss being able to sleep on my tummy.

Symptoms: Just rockin' the baby bump.

Food Cravings: As has been the norm for this pregnancy - no one stand-out craving.

Best Moments this week: Spending the 4th of July week camping at N. Higgens Lake SP with the family (23 of us all in total).

What I miss: Being able to reach and paint my own toes...it was quite an acrobatic feat for me to slap some paint on my toes last night and I am thinking from here on out I may just have to go have a pedi done instead.

What I am Looking forward to: Checking a few more items of our house "to do" list and going camping with friends at Interlochen at the end of July - should be so much fun!
