Bumpdate: Week 29






How Far along: 29 weeks

Baby's size: A fresh pineapple or an acorn squash! About 16 in. long, between 2.5-3.8 lbs!

Weight loss/gain: Up 10 lbs total, and really hoping to slow that down.  It's coming out of nowhere it seems!

Sleep: Still getting up at least once a night, every now and then it is twice.  I sleep awesomely until about 2 am, then toss and turn after going to the bathroom. I have done a little better about getting back to sleep until about 5:50 when Zach's first alarm goes off.

Gender: B-O-Y

Movement:  Moving and sometimes it even hurts a little bit!  This past week he must have balled himself up on my right side because it was throbbing and hurting so badly.  I didn't know what was going on, but I think I scared Zach a little when I texted him about it.  At first I though it was braxton hicks contractions, but I think it was just BBS trying to get my attention!

Best Moment of this week: Finding out we will be closing on our house about 2 weeks ahead of schedule!

Looking Forward: to the weekend, as usual.  We've got lots of packing to do and relaxing to do! 

Food cravings: I made blonde brownies and they were pretty darn good!  Pineapple, too!  Yum!

Weirdest Food I ate last week: Nothing

Anything making you feel sick or queasy: I ate chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast and they made me feel pretty crappy! Apparently BBS doesn't really like sweets for breakfast like Mama does! : (

Symptoms: A big belly!  Not feeling very cute this week.

Dr. Appt:  My next appt. is not until my spring break, and I'll be 31 weeks, 4 days!  It's crazy that it will be that long until the next one, and that I'll be past 30 weeks! 

Workouts: Cleaning and packing!

What I miss: Nothing much.

Things that stink: That Daylight Savings Time is this weekend.  I'm all for the "falling back" but not so big on the "Springing forward." : /  Never fun to have to get up and go to work in the dark!

Things that don't stink: 2 weeks until Spring Break!  11 Weeks (give or take) until we have a BABY! Wow!

Mama's Thoughts: Zach took one of my bump pictures last night and I got a little sad at how bad I looked.  I'm hoping it was just a flop yesterday, and today's will be better! : )

We were laying in bed and I asked Zach if he could believe that BBS would be here in around 11 weeks.

It still seems like a daydream some days that I am 29 weeks pregnant with our precious little boy.  It just doesn't seem like we are deserving of something so amazing and miraculous!  I am so thankful the Lord is blessing us with this experience!

Daddy's Thoughts: Zach said he thinks it's so cool that we'll have a son in 11 weeks or so.  I don't think either of us will really comprehend it until he's actually here!

Baby:Making some big movements.  I think before too long we'll be able to see all his movements!

Valentine's Day and the Quickest Weekend Ever

Valentine's morning I treated myself to a heart-shaped chicken biscuit from Chick-fil-a.  They were BOGO free AND I got a survey for a free chicken sandwich.  That in and of itself made my day! : )                                                       Friday evening Zach and I tried to go out for Valentine's Day.  We thought we were early enough to beat the rush, but it turned out we weren't.   We ended up going back home with a quick stop through Donut Bank to get dessert and then we had a DiGiorno pizza and watched the Olympics.  Can you feel the romance? Haha.                                                                                                     Yummy Whoopie Pie!                                                                                          My Valentine! Saturday morning began gloriously at 9:20 a.m. It seems like it's been forever since I slept that late, but it was wonderful!  I met my friend, Jennifer, and he

Christmas Eve

Our Christmas festivities started with Zach's family on Christmas Eve!  We opened presents and ate!  I'll let the pictures do most of the talking!  As you can see, Christmas is so more magical when there are little ones to spoil! : ) Mrs. Claus house shoes from Nana and Poppy!  Mmmmm, paper!  We got Zach's dad a long magnet on wheels.  We hope he liked it!! Haha, it was one of those gifts that was more of a necessity I think!  She was excited!  We are glad she liked it!  We got Zach's mom a record player that is a 5-in-1 system!  Isaiah's sweater we got him!  Its pockets are in the shape of monkey hands too, so I couldn't resist how cute it was!  He is a cute little monkey too!  Book set from us!  Love If You Give A Mouse.... series!  He is saying. "Ohhh, paper!  I love that!"  Make-up set from us!  He looooved the paper!  Isaiah opening his Leap Frog laptop from us!  He lik

Ten on Thursday

1. Zach is on Spring Break this week! Even if it is just from his one class, we still enjoyed it! I actually got to have him with me all last night! 2. I am almost done with my first week in third grade. So far, so good! The kids seem to really like me and I'm becoming rather fond of them as well! 3. I was working out last night and accidentally kicked Nellie in the side of her head. She is okay, but Zach may still be dying of laughter! I felt awful and was trying to pick her up as she was trying to scurry away from me. She must have thought I did it intentionally! Poor baby! She got lots of hugs and kisses after that though! 4. We have kept our sink free of dirty dishes for over a week now! This may not sound like such a feat, but trust me, when you don't have a dishwasher, it is! 5. Tomorrow is the "Spring Fling" carnival at my school. I am going to help set it up after school, which should be fun! 6. Warrick County School Corporation announced this past week that t
