Hello again! This week has been quiet and relaxing, and I’ve been taking a break from cooking and the computer. It’s been nice!
I am 29 weeks pregnant today and BabyCenter says we are the size of a butternut squash. It says it is 15 inches long and about 2.5 pounds. 15 inches is probably longer than the keyboard or computer screen you’re reading this on. It’s getting big!
Although the week seems quiet, we’re actually between our final two trips during pregnancy. Last weekend over Christmas we were in Florida with both of our parents for a little vacation. And this weekend we are going to Austin for a wedding on New Year’s Day. Jeffrey is the best man. During the week, I’ve been running errands and trying to rest!
Florida was very relaxing. One day I even woke up, had breakfast, and then went back to sleep for an hour. I don’t think I’ve been that lazy in a decade. I did walk each day barefoot on the beach with my mom for 30-45 minutes. Other than that, we just relaxed, shopped at the outlet mall (I got some non maternity pajama pants from the Gap that I have been living in), and I read a book! I didn’t really take any pictures, but we did the same trip last Christmas and I wrote about it then.
That’s kind of it for the week. Just a quiet one for taking it easy. I ordered our final piece of baby furniture–the dresser. Glad to have those decisions made! January will be about getting it all in the house hopefully.
Lots of kicks all day and night long, my clothes are getting more snug again. That’s the theme of winter break too. I know I have still many weeks to go, but it’s still hard to believe I’m going to keep growing. I hope my clothes fit! It is not fun to keep shopping for maternity clothes.
This week was also Hanukkah! Here’s a picture from our final night at home.
sounds like a fantastic week
i am jealous!!!
