week 29 and baby's nose

thanks to babies r us, we had a wonderful saturday evening of shopping for nursery must-haves (or maybe they should be thanking us...) :)

we picked out our nursery "rocking" chair - finally. it is so comfortable. it looks like a lazy boy recliner, yet is a rocker chair. wonderful. it will be delivered in a few weeks. we got a color based on a 4x4 inch swatch, so i hope i like it....fingers crossed!

baby now has a mattress for the crib (that isn't set up). so he will be comfey cozy one of these days in his room :) my oh my, could you get talked into a $300 all organic mattress that could basically do everything EXCEPT change diapers, clean the nursery, do laundry, fold clothes, feed baby, do dishes...you get the idea! pretty much just for sleeping...we went with a "non" organic mattress. i think we are still good parents... :)

we had the exciting 3D ultrasound today...it was exciting. i will post pics of that later. i need to download them to my computer yet. it was fun. babes decided to keep his hand in front of his face (or in his mouth) a lot of the time, but we still got some good pics. he has chubby cheeks and super cute lips :)

the first thing we saw though...his nose. it was large. suck out like a pinocchio nose. the ultrasound tech reminded me that it was just the angle. it didn't look so bad (actually was sooo cute in the other angles). HOWEVER...i sent a few of the black and white pics to my sister...of course...what does she comment on...."the nose looks like yours!". thanks sissy. i hope you were looking at the "good angle" pictures :) i think we are even more excited now (if that is possible) to meet the little man...he looked ready to meet me. i will post a few of the black and white, non 3D pics below.

week 29 stats...

weight gained: 22lbs (eeks!) i have realized it is a bad idea to look at pics from before pregnancy to now...i didn't think my face looked bigger...so much for that...it does...thanks to digital cameras it is way too easy to look at the past.

food: english muffins with jelly and pb...especially at 3am (john loves it) :)

mood: still john's favorite person to be around!! i am as happy as they come in the 3rd trimester!! i am tired a lot now...and my back is starting to hurt...

picture time! you will have to excuse the quality of the black and white ones - they were picturesof the print outs we got :)


the little guy looking as peaceful as ever...however...this was truly NOT the case! he was moving all over.

this is a profile pic...this is where the nose scared me a bit...

isn't he so sweet!!! :)

we got a bit of a grin here. he took a big yaaawwwnnn!

we determined he will be a thumb sucker...he like to have his hands by his mouth.
our nursery rocker chair...we are getting the sage greenish color. yes, i am acting as if i am holding him...it only felt right :)

my favorite little tiny man newborn onesie :)
