Baby Update

29 Weeks

IMG_315129 weeks and Baby Kiel is as long as 6 lemon cucumbers. In other words… 15.25″ long and 2.75 lbs! Yes, I am running out of ideas for these pictures, haha. But then I looked at the kitchen table and saw this:

IMG_3149The garden has been giving us LOTS of zucchini and cucumbers… so that was my inspiration! Now… any good recipes or uses for a lot of cucumbers?

How far along: 29 weeks
Gender: We don’t know. πŸ™‚
But I’ve had my first dreams about the baby (finally!). My first dream was of an ultrasound that clearly showed a baby boy. But then a couple of days later, I was changing the diaper of my baby girl. So that was no help.
Weight gain: 13 lbs
Symptoms:Β Back aches… owww…
Maternity clothes: Yes
Stretch marks: Not yet
Belly button in or out: Still in!
Sleep: A little more tossing and turning lately. I’ve been feeling warmer at night, plus switching sides is becoming more of a process.
Best moment this week: A SURPRISE baby shower! I knew there was talk of a shower being planned by the girls I work with, but no one ever asked me about a date or anything. Andrew and I went on a completely normal weekend errand, so nothing suspicious there. But as we approached our house on the way back, I saw cars parked on the road… and then more in the driveway. Andrew sent me to the backyard to check things out (I probably looked really nervous), and there was a cute nautical-themed shower set up!

IMG_3156It was small, but it was nice that I got to talk to and hang out with everyone all at once. I got some nice gifts, and I loved seeing people from work! Plus the weather cooperated and we didn’t get rained on. πŸ™‚

There were so many cute little details:
IMG_3153IMG_3154It was so sweet of everyone to come and celebrate Baby Kiel!

Miss anything: Not having back pain. I feel like I need to change positions fairly often to help relieve the ache in my lower back. This is good (I guess) though… it keeps me moving and changing activities throughout the day.
Movement: All the time! Especially when I’m trying to fall asleep at night.
Cravings: Nothing really
Looking forward to: Fall! I have some cute maternity clothes I’m ready to break out! πŸ™‚
