29 weeks!

Here we are at 29 weeks! Silas is getting so big and quickly running out of room to move. His movements are more "rolly" than "kicky" if that makes any sense. I was trying to explain it to mom last night and those were the best descriptors i could come up with. Sure, there are still some hard kicks/punches from time to time, but it's become much more "rolly" and at times i totally see a body part sticking out, like an elbow, or his bum, or something. So cute! I am feeling good too--a few aches and pains here and there, but for the most part, just trucking along.

I haven't had an ultrasound in a while (and probably won't until about 32 weeks), but all the books say he is a tad over 15 inches head to heel, weighing over 2 1/2 pounds and growing rapidly. Most growth from here will be his weight, but if he's anythign like his dad, he'll come in at 22.5 inches long and just under 8 pounds--STRING BEAN! We'll see....i can't wait!! Only a little over two months to go!

oh, and we've gotten a lot more work done in the nursery. I finished the bubbles on the wall--and now only have to paint the dresser/night stand and we'll be pretty much through with the big stuff. After that, it's just accessorizing.....oh wait, i still need a chair. Well--that will come with time too :) Here is a pic of the finished "bubble wall" and the bedding to show where i got the pattern. The lighting on the wall makes some of the colors look off, but they all pretty much exactly match the colors in the bedding (except the lime green turned out looking really yellow on the wall--oh well!)

I'll be back soon with another update!
