Week 29

*Week 29 Pregnancy Highlights- March 26th

How Far Along: 29 Weeks 

Size of Baby: acorn squash

Appointment Updates: On Monday the 24th we had our 28 week appointment. We got to see the baby again as the doctor wanted to check my placenta. Everything looks perfect so there is no need to worry. The baby was very active so we got a few more pictures. I think it has Mommy's tiny lips again. I know start having appointments every two weeks.  Boy, time is flying fast.

Symptoms: I have been feeling very well lately. Baby is moving so much which is something that I love! It is now just starting to get slightly uncomfortable while sleeping and after long days but definitely manageable. I am also beginning to feel quite full after meals which will hopefully help with my crazy weight gains.

Cravings: Sweets are definitely my favorite, specifically chocolate! My awesome friend Jodi picked up my favorite banana cupcakes from a bakery in Valparaiso, Indiana this past weekend.

Weekly/Monthly News:  
Last week was my much needed spring break. Josh and I spent the first weekend in St. Louis celebrating the marriage of Jake and Holly. It was so nice to spend some time with Josh as we haven't gotten much time together because of busy season. Hayden and I then spent a few days at Grandma and Papa's house. It is so fun seeing Hayden interact with his Grandparents and Great Grandparents. He especially loves getting to see and hear the choo choo train there. Mom and I took Hayden to the Round Lake Park District Children's Museum where he had a ton of fun shopping, cooking, fishing, and putting away mail.  We spent the end of the week with all the TeBeests. Hayden's cousins love on him and he, of course, loves the attention. Hayden loves dancing to the song "Happy" and loved it when everyone danced with him. It was especially nice to have everyone together before Auntie Kelsey leaves for Spain.

Prayers/Blessings: We are feeling extremely blessed as Grandma T closes on her new house on May 16th and gave us an accepted offer to her house. Over break Josh and I finalized our long list of construction plans for our new house. Our goal the next few days is to work with the bank on our finances. Our biggest prayer request is for our house to sell quickly so we hopefully will not need to have two mortgages. Prayers for everyone involved in the move as their are a lot of emotions stirring in leaving the past and starting new.
