29 Weeks!!!

I know that I say this every week but each week continues to fly by!! I am still feeling pretty good besides the aches and pains here and there and I am actually still sleeping really good as well although I wake up tired no matter how much sleep I get.  My nesting is in full force and I feel like I have organized everything in my house that I can organize.  I am waiting till closer to time to clean my house from top to bottom but I am itching to CLEAN!!

I think we almost have everything I together for her arrival.  I still need to get a few essentials and stock up on a few more diapers but other than that I think we are good to go!

These days she is still moving and rolling like crazy!! She is full of energy!! I love it!! That is one of my favorite parts of pregnancy.  I have also started to feel her hiccups this week! Brayden had them all the time and it looks like she is going to have them quite often as well. 

This week she is a little over 15 inches long- about the length of a loaf of bread and weighs about 3 pounds. Her muscles and lungs are continuing to mature, and her head is growing bigger to make room for her developing brain. Her brain can now control her breathing and body temperature.  She can also cough, and her sucking abilities have been perfected! Her skin is less wrinkled as she packs on the pounds. 

I also wanted to share just a few of the cute outfits that we have got for Olivia so far!

I found this on clearance and I thought this would be perfect for her next year for 4th of July. 

Love these cute little jeans!

I found this little jacket on clearance and I could not pass it up.  I thought it was adorable.

And now here are my 29 week pregnancy highlights!

Pregnancy Highlights!

How far along?  29 weeks 5 days

Size of Baby? This week she is the size of a butternut squash - about 2 1/2 pounds and a little over 15 inches head to heel. 

Weight Gain/Loss?   I may have gained about a 1/2 pound since weighing in at the doctor. 

Maternity Clothes?  Yes. Just about everything except pajamas and some shirts.

Best Moment this week?  Like I have said before, we talk to Brayden about his baby sister all the time.  I know he does not fully understand what is getting ready to happen in his life, but he will pick up something of hers and say " This is sissy's. "  He also knows where her room is and will walk in and say "Sissy's room."  He also acknowledges my belly.   He will rub and pat my belly and kiss it.  It is the sweetest thing ever! Brings tears to my eyes every time! He is going to be the best big brother to Miss Olivia!
Gender? IT'S A GIRL! Olivia Kate!

Movement?  Olivia moves a lot!! It is so much fun to watch her move around!  There is not really a certain time she is more active because she moves all the time.  I am beginning to wonder if she ever sleeps!

Food Craving?  These days it is just food in general! Everything sounds soooo good! I also cannot get enough to drink.  I feel like I am so thirsty all the time!!

What I miss?   Just my usual self.  I have been so emotional here lately that I am getting on my own nerves!! There are times I do not know whether to laugh, scream or cry! LOL

Sleep?   Thankfully, I am still sleeping really well.  I have noticed that my energy level is slowing going back to the way it was in the beginning of the pregnancy.  By the afternoon I am so tired sometimes that I cannot hardly keep my eyes open. 
Symptoms? Tired, hormonal, aches and pains and I have to pee all the time!!! Oh the wonderful joys of pregnancy! LOL I wouldn't change it for the world!

And here are my 29 week photos!
