tuesday tell all part 2 ~{maybe i'll start a series}~

well, it's tuesday morning and i'm enjoying my morning me time before amelie wakes up (she's been going to bed at 9:30 and waking up at 8:30 or 9 these days). i'm so thankful she's a dependable sleeper--hopefully she will teach her sister her good habits! i think today will be grocery day as the cupboards are nearly bare. as a side note: i <3 wegmans!!!

i know i've said it before but i'll say it again, i love my husband a lot. he took amelie out for a walk for almost two hours last night! he's so patient and does everything she wants to and she LOVES him for it--as soon as daddy says it's time for a walk, amelie forgets i exist and gets so excited about strolling, sliding, snacking and swinging with daddy. and what did i do? i sat around missing them and then got over it and took a nice long bath =-)

things i'm craving during this pregnancy:
1. mini chocolate covered donuts by enteman's mmm...breakfast, lunch and dinner
2. sour cream and onion potato chips, they must be herr's
3. mozzarella cheese sticks from applebee's only
4. spaghetti (e!?!? hahah sarah!)

my aunt sent me an email forward so i figured i'd read it and it was full of Maxine comics--which are sometimes funny to me--it must be the hormones b/c every one of them made me laugh out loud--i though i'd share one:

here's what my little angel is doing this week--i can't wait to meet her, i'm head over heels for her already!
Week 29
Your Baby's Development
Now that organ and nerve development is almost complete, your baby will start gaining weight very quickly this week — mostly in the form of body fat. This fat will provide insulation for Baby and will fill out most of the wrinkles in her skin, making her look like a plump, healthy baby.

In addition, Baby's brain continues its important developmental work this week. In fact, it is growing so quickly now, it may cause her flexible skull bones to swell slightly. The folds and fissures of the brain continue to develop, allowing room for important interconnections between nerve cells. During this week, brain wave patterns begin to look like those of a full-term baby.

By this time, your baby may weigh just under three pounds and is a bit less than 14 inches long.

Other important developments in the 29th week include:

Baby will begin to produce prolactin, a hormone that will help your body produce colostrum. (Colostrum is the first breastmilk you’ll produce and is filled with nutrients and immunity-enhancers.)
Insistent kicking action will occur as Baby's muscles develop. Later in this trimester, these movements will slow down as Baby gets bigger and the uterus gets more cramped.
Baby's skeleton will continue to harden.
Baby's lungs will continue to mature.
Baby's downy lanugo hair will begin to shed into the amniotic fluid. She may still have some on her body at birth, but this will fall off in the first week or so.
Toenails will continue to grow.
Retinas will continue to develop.
