Updates

We got a crazy idea over the weekend and ended up painting the room. It turned out much better than I had imagined. We didn't kill each other either trying to put the stripes on the walls.

Stats Update

Total weight gain: 22 lbs.
Gender: male
Heart Rate: 156 bpm
Baby weight: 4lbs. 2 oz.
Blood pressure of Mommy: 112/62
Tummy measurement: 32 cm
Movement: I love playing guess what body part this is. Every morning for the past week when I wake up I can feel Milford (that is what the cheerleaders think I should name him) up right under my ribs.
Room: Still off-white but now has clean carpets and a lot more Bears stuff.
Happiness scale: 9/10 - I sleep great until I have to work and then I have a tendency to wake up and start thinking about different work related things. I usually feel great while standing, but cannot sit or ride in a car for long periods of time. Bus rides are becoming increasingly wonderful. I can still see my toes and put on my shoes without help. I can still bend down without any problems. I can also still do 10 push-ups with extra weight to boot.

Hooray for babies! Boys especially......

Nursery

Well, we've gotten everything underway on the nursery. We still haven't decided if we are going to paint it or not.

Thanks Grandpa Bob for the tool box.
Okay, so the curtains look a little girly, but at least they're made out of Bears fabric.

Can we possibly get anymore Bears stuff?

Belly!

Okay, here we are at 29 weeks. I'm still feeling pretty good. Although I've noticed that walking around at school is a bit more difficult, especially going from my office up to the workroom on the other side of the building. Sleep is still alright. The past few nights I've been having a hard time getting back to sleep after going to the bathroom. I blame part of that on Rocky becasue he's been wound up and running around the house like an idiot.

Da' Bears

My one goal for break and I have accomplished it. I finally finished the crib blankets. I'm so excited. They turned out my better than I had expected. Now if only we had the baby furniture moved in, it would be a much different story. I can't wait. And if only Wal Mart would have had Bears fabric, I could have gotten the curtains done today, but of course not.
