Check in luggage: 26" or 29" for casual family flyer?

I'm looking for a new bag. Family is growing and infants and toddlers have a surprising amount of stuff.

Should I go 29" or is it too easy to go over the 50lb weight limit with those things? Are they too bulky (ie hard to handle, don't fit in hotel rooms, etc)?

It'll prolly only be used once a year so if it's not a big deal (weight, bulkiness, etc), I'd rather go big so I can fit more in.
