Baby Update and Then Some

Well, I am officially (as of two days ago) in my third trimester! Welcome Week 28! I had a baby appointment today and all went well. I am measuring exactly where I should be, and by that I mean my belly, and nothing out of the ordinary to discuss with the doctor. I did have my glucose test today and, despite me having enjoyed a bowl of ice cream last night, passed with flying colors. Even my hemoglobin was right where it should be. Haha! Like I was worried about that. :-)

I feel like this pregnancy is flying by. I can't believe that I am already at the point where I will be going to the doctor every two weeks! I told Tom this little boy of ours is going to be here before we know it, especially if he comes at the end of July like Tennyson did. But since getting past the exhaustion and morning sickness of those first 14 weeks or so I have really enjoyed being pregnant. I enjoyed my pregnancy with Tennyson, too (except for that horrid rash, of course). I don't care that I have stretch marks. I don't care that I can't bend down....as well. I don't care that my skin looks like it did when I was in middle school. Every pain, every spotting scare, every restless night and the constant trips to the bathroom were/are SO worth it! Besides what woman with a healthy self-image doesn't feel sexier when she's pregnant!!!

Though it has been more challenging with having a very, very active little boy to keep up with at the same time. I have to note that has been incredibly nice to not have to get ready for work every day and leave the house. And I am especially glad for that now that summer is fast-approaching! Ahhh, I can stay in my nice, cool house all day if I want!

The other exciting thing going on here is that Tom's LAST day of school is tomorrow! We both can't believe his 7th year at BRCS is coming to a close. It's crazy! But the BEST, the very best part about that is he will be home 5 days a week now, with the other two days being spent doing what he loves in Harper's Ferry. I am so excited for him! Tom is really in his element up there, doing living history. If you get the chance to go see him in action do it! He's amazing to watch!

So that's the update from here, excluding all the new things Tennyson is doing. But that's for another post.
