29 Weeks


Peanut's the size of an acorn squash!

At week 29, baby is getting plumper. Begin to prepare yourself for the absolute cuteness you'll soon experience every day! Right now, she measures about 15.2 to 16.7 inches long and weighs about 2.5 to 3.8 pounds. She still has a long way to go, and will be tripling her weight before birth! While your belly has grown bigger than you probably ever thought possible, there's still only so much it can stretch, so baby's accommodations at Hotel Bump have gotten a little tight these days. With the squirmer inside of you, you probably already realized that. And if you feel a subtle twitch, baby might actually be hiccupping!

Not much going on this week for us.  Just chilling and letting baby grow.  11 weeks until Peanut comes, give or take a few days.  Peanut's room was painted last night and second coat/touch ups are going up tonight after Patrick goes to bed.  Wanted to hang up the curtains, mobil, canvas pictures, and baby quilt today but need to wait for the paint to dry tonight obviously.  Still need to figure out which scripture to paint over the crib.  I'm leaning toward Deuteronomy 31:8  "Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord will personally go ahead of you. He will be with you; he will neither fail you nor abandon you."  I'll probably just start with the "For the LORD. . ." and drop the very first part.  Otherwise I'm worried it will be too long.
