26 weeks

Yes my family has made me well aware of this poor neglected blog.  But there are only 29 more days of school! So I will have sometime freed up... at least until the baby comes.

 

This picture was actually from last week, but you get the point... I am growing!

 

Here is a fun comparison

 

 

In other changes I am also missing some of my hair!  Yeah I kinda regret that, especially looking at this picture of me from 13 weeks, but its hair, it grows back.

 

I was actually pretty sick this week.  I think I caught something from one of my lovely students- several were out sick each day this past week, so I am sure something nasty went around our class.

 

I was trying to get in some daily walks until I got sick.  I think I had 3 last week.

 

Baby Girl is still kicking a lot, but not as hard as before.  We were able to watch my stomach move for a while, but not this week.  (this makes me sad)

 

I still have terrible heartburn, but I have some new medicine so its getting better (somedays anyway).

 





Growing Up

“In increments both measurable and not, our childhood is stolen from us -- not always in one momentous event but often in a series of small robberies, which add up to the same loss.” 
-John Irving

My baby is growing up.  He's a real person, full of personality (not always ones I would choose).  Over the weekend we moved him into a big bed.  It was time, he has done great.  He stays in bed all night, sleeps all night.  Its just sad for me :(

Chores

Our house is a constant mess.  As soon as I clean up some of Liam's toys he dumps them back out again.  We have been trying to teach Liam to clean up his own toys, but thats been a complete fail so far.  Liam will pick up one toy and find 5 more to get out.  Then pretty soon our house looks like this



Chairs flipped over, stream of toys from one room to the next...

We'll keep working on teaching him to pick up after himself, but in the meantime Liam's new chore is feeding the dog
