The Baby Belly-Week 29

Our Baby-to-be weighs approximately 3 pounds, is over 15 inches long and can blink her sweet, little eyes!

Once again, I cannot believe that we are in week 29! I should caution you about the picture, it's of my naked baby belly. I find it somewhat gross, but it's fascinating to see what our bodies can do. No matter what, it's an amazing miracle to think that there's a baby growing in my belly. It freaks me out a little sometimes.

I'm wearing what used to be my favorite maternity jeans. They were too big for a while, but now they try to roll down under my belly and are terribly uncomfortable. I just took them off and put on my pink and chocolate damask print pj pants. When The Muffin wakes up from her nap, she'll think it's funny that I'm in pajamas.

This past week has been rough. I have had lots of aches and pains in places that I forgot could even hurt. For the most part, it's similar to my pregnancy with The Muffin, but it's harder to feel bad and still take care of her. She rubs my belly more and more and really enjoys feeling the baby kick, or as she says, "walk, crawl or kick the covers off".

Here are a few more pictures of Baby Ellie's room.

Here's her framed name, hairbow holder and a congratulatory card from my niece, Callie. You can also see the pearl "E". Muff has an "M" just like it in her room.

Here's the inside of the bed. This is the view that I'll have (minus a baby) when I peek in to hopefully find a little baby fast asleep. The Muffin convinced me to put her in the bed this morning and she looked like a giant!

Well, that's all for now. I'll be back on Wednesday or Thursday with a recap of our family Babymoon. I also have a cute little "Wordless Wednesday" post on auto-publish.
