33 Weeks

This week: The baby could be as long as 20 inches and weigh as much as 5 pounds!  By now his fingernails reach the end of his fingertips and may even curl over the tip.  It's hard to believe that he still has 7 more weeks to grow!!!!

Weight gain: +0, Total weight gain, +22.  

How I'm feeling: I still feel great!  However, I had my first experience with swelling this weekend!  We have started remodeling our bathroom and the first step is demolition.  While I did not do any of the hard work myself, I did try to keep the workers (Adam and his dad) supplied with whatever they might need!  At the same time, my mom and Adam's mom were upstairs painting the nursery.  Again, I did not do any of that work myself, but I did bring them all of the things that they needed.  By Saturday night my ankles were swollen!  I think I just over did things!  I tried my best to rest on Sunday and by Monday morning they were back to normal (praise the Lord)!  I've tried to take it a little easier this week, but I think that is easier said than done!  I feel so blessed to have had such a wonderful pregnancy so far!  I can't imagine what things would have been like if I had had to slow down!!!

Here is this week's picture:
