29 Weeks and 1 Day
We are moving into our new apartment on Dec. 1st, which I am really excited about, I am starting to feel anxious about getting things ready.
Now that we are in the third trimester, some of the old first trimester symptoms are coming back. The other day I had a headache that lasted two or three days.
We have had some really cute trick or treater's! This one little boy was saying, "Iron Man!" instead of 'Trick or Treat!" he was maybe 2, and just didn't get it, and thought it was about what character you wanted to be! Haha, it was cute! There were also some boys, probably around 11 that came by, and they weren't in any costumes and they looked like the typical hoodlums that play out in the parking lot of our apartment complex. I gave them a hard time about not being dressed up, to which they joked back, "We are, we're chollos!" And then as I was giving them candy, they said, "God bless you!" I was so taken aback because it was the very last thing I expected them to say! Good for them :) Miss Kitty is very skeptical about this whole strangers knocking on the door every 20 minutes or so thing...
Here is Miss Kitty intimidating the Trick or Treaters on Halloween.

How your baby's growing:
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. His muscles and lungs are continuing to mature, and his head is growing bigger to make room for his developing brain. To meet his increasing nutritional demands, you'll need plenty of protein, vitamins C, folic acid, and iron. And because his 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.
Happy Halloween, Everyone!
