29 Weeks

Weeks 29-32 (month 7)

Today I am 29 weeks! Lots of fun developments this week. The baby has alot more energy and I can tell because she moves most of the day now. But none of it bothers me because as long as she is moving I know she must be doing okay. This month all of the baby's 5 senses are fully functional and the brain and nervous system will go through lots of major developments.

I am officially 141 lbs since my doctor's appointment on Monday. I have gained a total of 18 lbs. so far! yikes. The doctor said I'm still doing well but if I don't want to gain much more I need to stay away from bread and what he called the "C" diet (cake, cookies, and candy). The latter is what I am going to have a hard time with. Me stay away from sweets??

We travel to Virginia tomorrow for my baby shower!! I'm so excited! The last time I was there I was only 19 weeks and barely showing. Now I feel as big as a house. I'm excited to see everyone. We got a pretty big list of RSVPs so it's going to be a packed house but I hope everyone has a great time. I'm looking forward to the yummy food Patty has planned to prepare and the cute baby things for Ava.

My mom is coming with so I hope she has a good time too. She's coming sans my dad this time which means she can spend some quality sister time with my aunt. Usually my dad drags my mom to visit all his navy friends that live there.

Oo and I get my haircut tomorrow!! I love getting my hair cut. I'm not sure how I want it cut but my hair is at the blah stage and my bangs are constantly pinned back because they are in my eyes. I hope it turns out super cute.

I'm babbling now so I'll get off. I still have to take a shower, pack, watch the return of Grey's Anatomy and pick my mom up. I'll post pics when I get back!!
