Pregnancy Update - 29 weeks

I have a lot to catch up on here.  I've been so busy and then trying not to post every picture on here getting ready for the Happiness Book so that my mom and family hadn't already seen every picture.

So first a pregnancy update.

Me, Whitney, Lori (in order of due date, left to right)

I'm 29 1/2 weeks.  I just had an appointment this week and my doctor scheduled my c-section already.  I was NOT mentally prepared that we were close enough to do that yet.  I know, it's still more then a couple months out but it all of the sudden became so real.  I also start going in every 2 weeks, so I'm definitely on the downhill of this pregnancy.

That afternoon I made a huge list of everything I need/want to get done before this baby gets here.  Nesting here I am!

I'm feeling good still.  Sleeping good, not too uncomfortable, very little heartburn, much better in general then last time even though I didn't think last time was that bad either.

The doctor told me I'm measuring 30 weeks (when I was 29 1/2 weeks) so she's happy with how I'm growing.  At this point last time I was measuring 35 weeks and around 35 weeks last time I was measuring 44.  So I'm definitely not as big as I was last time (unlike a lady who commented at work that I'm bigger with 1 then I was with 2...like she remembers...but still did she have to say that?  I just turned to her and said 'oh gee, that's always nice to hear.'  lol, don't mess with a pregnant lady.)

Siena and Aria now kiss my stomach when I mention baby brother, it's pretty cute even if they don't really, truly get it.

This baby kicks and moves a ton.  And a lot at night.  In fact as I am typing this my stomach is moving all over the place.  I'm pretty sure he's going to be a night owl because he is always so active in the evenings and when I'm going to bed.

Still don't have names, we aren't even close.  I keep suggesting names and Shane keeps saying no but has no suggestions of his own.  Ugh...enough said.

My biggest decision besides a name between now and when the baby is born is whether or not Aria and Siena can/should share a room.  I think they would sleep/nap better apart but I don't really want to clean out another room and give up my office/storage/put anything I want in there and close the door room.  I go back and forth every week.

So here we are less then 10 weeks out.  I know it's going to go by so fast as there is lots to do both at home and work to get ready but we're getting so excited to meet him.
