A Whole New Experience.....

I know I have been a huge blogging slacker, just seems like there is always something more important to do.

Here is the update on the baby...although I am almost to week 30 so this update is a little off but..

Week 29 (compliments of babycenter.com)
Your baby now weighs about 2 1/2 pounds (like a butternut squash) and is a tad over 15 inches long from head to heel. Her muscles and lungs are continuing to mature, and his head is growing bigger to make room for his developing brain. To meet her increasing nutritional demands, you'll need plenty of protein, vitamins C, folic acid, and iron. And because her bones are soaking up lots of calcium, be sure to drink your milk (or find another good source of calcium, such as cheese, yogurt, or enriched orange juice). This trimester, about 250 milligrams of calcium are deposited in your baby's hardening skeleton each day.

As far as preparing for the baby...
This past weekend we moved all the furniture from the guest room to the basement. I actually think the guest room looks super cute in the basement and it was fun to see Chuck moving everything down there! The biggest set back was the queen bed box spring did not fit down our ghetto stairs so I am still working on that issue! Moving all that furniture out of our actual guest room left a big empty green room that will be perfect for the nursery! I am so excited! The dresser came in this week so Chuck and I will hopefully go pick it up Friday after work to hopefully be put together sometime this weekend or early next week. Since we live in a really old house we have plaster walls, hanging things on these plaster walls is never easy and who knows if it will actually stay so I found something to put on the walls that would actually be safe to hang above a crib, we ordered that last night and I cannot wait to see it.
