Baby Showers & 29 weeks

The past 2 weekends I have had back to back showers.  The first was my friends shower and the second (taking place this past weekend) was my combined family shower.  Wow, we are totally blessed to have some wonderful people in our lives!  People were so generous and and I can't begin to say enough nice things about the people that helped to throw these showers for us. 

Getting all this baby stuff home and put away was alot more time consuming than I had anticipated.  Not that I'm complaining, because it was so much fun!  I can't wait to complete this sweet little baby's nursery.  I know she won't know the difference (whether everything looks just right or not) but for some reason it's important to me and makes me happy to be spending all this time in her nursery making sure things will look just right when I'm done.

Oh and we finally decided on a name: Oliva Grace.  It feels good to have that hurdle over with.  :)

Here are some pictures of the current progress of her room:






The pack n play is not staying in her room, but we're keeping it in there for now.

How far along?
29 weeks 4 days

How are you feeling? 
Feeling pretty good!  Acid reflux is still around and the back pain persists but it's nothing too terrible.  Starting to have to get up in the night and pee again.    

Cravings? 
Ehh, nothing really...although I'm really looking forward to all the food tomorrow!

What are you missing?
Running and some wine

What are you looking forward to? 
Thanksgiving tomorrow!!
Baby Purchases?
Oh yeah, lots.  We had our showers the last 2 weekends.  Afterwards, we made our returns and then got a lot of the stuff off our registry (except I still need to update it since we forgot to have them do that at the store).  Pretty much all the big stuff is done with the exeption of a few items.  I'm feeling much more prepared now. 

Weight Gain/Loss?
+20
