I've been really uncomfortable this week. I know that he is getting bigger so obviously that makes life harder. I am not a good pregnant lady. Nothing new has happend, except for the new weight (4 more pounds) that I've gained this week. At least, that's what the (broken) scale at the Dr. office said yesterday. My allergies are kicking my butt and I feel like my immune system is really trying to fight something off. I hope it wins.
If you remember, my goal was to cut back on chocolate...yeah. Notice from the picture below that goals are not always reached. I bought them from a student for a fundraiser, so it WAS for a good cause and I look really happy. I told the nurse at my dr. that I have been eating lots of chocolate. She said "good for you." I will however cut back after I saw a nasty picture of myself. So far two days without a soda and I'm going strong.
Yummy!! |
My first shower is this weekend!! I plan to go dress shopping tomorrow and hopefully I'll find something that doesn't make my face look too fat. My friends Stephanie and Allison are coming from San Antonio and Paige is driving up from Austin! Of course my mom and sister are coming from Temple and my grandmother from Brownwood. I can't wait to see everyone! I think it will be fun!!! Lots of people who love Kade and me in one house is a really good feeling.
Oscar is getting more excited about Kade coming each day. When we play "what body part is that?" we think we can always tell where his butt is! We often talk about our goals for him, but try to be realistic on what he might choose for his own life. I can't imagine what it's even going to be or feel like when I hold him for the first time, but I hope it is a moment Oscar and I will share and think of often. God sent Kade to us and I cant imagine planning for a different baby.
We had a staff development day on Monday and I feel like I got a lot done in preparation for my sub. I'm trying to plan everything out and get things done early. I of course, have a lot more to do. Only 2 more weeks until spring break! Woo hoo. That's when I'll finish organizing the house for Kade's arrival. I'll be looking for a photographer soon. If you know any that charge a flat rate and you get all the pictures, let me know!!
On another note, my mom turned another year older this week. She's pretty amazing and has already done so much for us, grandma style! I love you mom!
Have a great week, friends.
