Week 21

Belly Update

In the words of my husband "Dang, your belly is getting big!" I agree!

I had another doctor appointment on Halloween. All is going wonderful! Blood pressure is wonderful! My belly measurements are right on track. At my next appointment, I will get ready to take the nasty (or so I have heard from many people) the glucose test. I will also be receiving paperwork to register for the hospital! OMG! This is getting real! I am also so excited to start to begin to feel Baby Clark kicking much more this week. It is an amazing feeling.

Have I told everyone my students at school are awesome! I have received gifts from two students with various baby items. So sweet and generous of those students. I have also acquired a high chair from my awesome neighbor Miranda. So this weekend's job is to get it all cleaned up and ready to use down the road. In the next few weeks, Mark and I will be registering for Baby Clark as well.

I also like to think that this week is actually my "half way mark", because I am hoping to be able to finish up the 3rd quarter and get into my spring break before Baby Clark arrives (for the sanity of my coworkers)....maybe I'll take the advice of another student. Just squeeze my stomach and hold in the baby when the time arrives! Ha, not sure it is quite that easy!
