So here I am again,
a lot bigger this time!

Eli is kicking and moving a lot now. I try to keep him off my bladder, without much success. Stefanie (a friend at work who is also pregnant) says the water must be warmer there!

Everything else is running smoothly here. I don't know if being pregnant makes you a klutz but today my radar was off and I kept walking into doors and spilling water on my desk!


Hope your days are well!

The internet is temporarily out of service at home, sorry about the late posting.

The doctor's appointment was fine. She said they were able to see all the parts on the sonogram, which is good because that means nothing is missing! She also said they saw no abnormalities...Praise God for his handiwork! Dr. Sander also said that he was in the 52% on size, which means perfect is you ask me ;) She also introduced me to my round ligaments which are just inside my hips and enjoy jolting me with short stabbing pains that leave me bent in half. (All of which, I was assured, is perfectly normal, and as long as they don't persist over a long period of time are nothing to worry about).

Saw Angela (my sister-in-law) on Sunday. She was down for Spring Break with her family and they had a baby shower for her. It was good to see her, we haven't seen each other since the news. She looks just as beautiful as ever and getting ready to start student teaching in an inner-city Reading Middle School. I told her that inner-city Reading didn't sound as intimidating as inner-city Houston, but who knows...crazy Yanks!

Jase got his block 4 scores and did amazing, obviously, and I'm so proud of him. I can't wait to see what he is going to do with all this stuff he is learning! He'll be such a good doctor, whatever kind it is.

I am almost finished with my Medical Language class, I just have to schedule the final. I started the Coding class this weekend, and it will be quite a bit more challenging, but that's something I need right now! Hope to find "adult education" classes that discuss Health Insurance because I didn't even know how to fill out Pre-Registration forms for the Hospital with information from my card....I think I need some help!

Maybe some more pictures soon....

We go in to the doctor tomorrow for an interpretation of the sonogram! Hopefully we won't have any surprises. He's still kicking and moving around, especially at meal times. Some people think I have a pretty big baby belly, and others keep asking when I am going to get one, so go figure. Being thin, I think my belly is huge, but I guess it's all just a matter of perspective.

Randy and Mickie came for a visit this past weekend. We had a nice time looking at different cribs and we took a tour of the hospital where he will be born. They even put little GPS devices on their umbilical cords so the babies can't leave secure zones! The hospital looked very nice and well organized, and I'm sure it will be a pleasant and painful stay! (I don't really have any other hospital birthing experiences to compare it to). Jase will be able to get on the internet thier and post updates for all of you after the birth, and probably some pictures too!

I have found that my body does not like orange juice (sad) but still loves chocolate milk (happy!), and that my appetite is growing, on more than one occasion I have eaten more that Jase!

Everything is going well...just updating my belly pictures!
