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!

Family room re-do featuring.... my curtains! : )

For a while now, we've planned on finally finishing our family room.  That's right, it's kind of been unfinished for the entire time we've lived there.  It was painted and decorated, just no molding and the ceiling was hideous because we (and by we, I mean Zach) took down the drop ceiling the previous owners had put up.  So, anyway, I looked at curtains and didn't really find anything I liked, so I decided I was going to make my own.  Zach and I looked at Jo-Ann's a couple times and each time we looked I liked this fabric more and more.  It was the most expensive fabric I've ever bought, but in the end, it was sooooo worth it! (*Note- I bought the fabric in January before NSM! : )) Here we are at Mama Joyce's one day after church cutting the panels.  I think we were all nervous to cut it.  It was too costly to mess up! Fast forward a couple weeks because I didn't have time, was lazy, and also scared to sew on it, and I finally just delved in an...

Turns out...

Third grade is not bad at all! The kids are still pretty sweet and are so excited for me to be there and I am excited too! I think it will be fun to see all that they can do and have fun with them. Yesterday I received 5 notes on my desk about how excited that I was there and about how much fun we were going to have. I think they are right! Hopefully I get the hang of them quickly, because I start teaching Science (Mon and Wed), Social Studies(Tues and Thur), and PE (Fri) next week!

Bumpdate: 41 weeks!

How Far along: 41 weeks.   Baby's size: Size of a jack fruit!  Around 7.5 lbs. (I think he's going to be about 8 lbs and Zach's official guess is 9 lbs. 2 oz.  I hope he's wrong!) Weight loss/gain: 30 lbs. (So glad the weight gain is slowing down!) Sleep: I told Zach I no longer am even trying to keep track of how much I am getting up to go to the bathroom. Gender: B-O-Y Movement:  He has been back to his super active little self this week.  Best Moment of this week:  Getting to spend time at home together now that we're finished with the old house.  Also, the 3 day weekend!  We didn't sleep in, much, but we figure that's all about to end anyway! Looking Forward: Getting to meet our baby boy.  I think it will be a little weird, because I truly don't feel like I'm finished being pregnant yet.  But, alas, we pretty much have to follow Dr.'s orders. Food cravings: Still pineapple!  ...
