31 Weeks

Here is the latest "pregnant" picture from today. I am 31 weeks and counting...

Mrs. Lewis - Substitute

My first day of subbing yesterday went okay. In the morning I was in Physics and Engineering classes, and in the afternoon I was in computer classes. Some of the kids knew or figured out who I was (aka Mr. Lewis' wife) and some didn't have any idea. I actually had a couple kids twice because of being in two different teacher's classes, and some I saw even more than that because I hung out in the Ag building during my lunch and conference period. Overall it was an okay day and hopefully I will get called to sub again soon.

Dr Appointment Update

Today was another doctor's appointment. Here are the stats:

Weight: +4 pounds
Blood Pressure: 122/72
Baby's Heart Rate: 130's
Baby's Head: Down!

Everything looked and sounded good today. My blood counts and glucose test from last time all came back right on track so that is good. I'll go back in two weeks for my next visit.

In other news...tomorrow I am subbing at Callisburg HS. That should be fun!

Babies

Baby kittens that is...

So, a couple weeks ago Eric's parents brought us two cats - a momma cat and one of her boy kittens (a few months old). We got them to hopefully chase away (or kill) the critters outside. Eric had mentioned a couple times in the past week that the momma cat looked like she might be having more kittens, but we didn't know that for sure. Well, tonight when we went out to play with them and feed them he said her tummy didn't look as big as it had last night. (I, on the other hand, would have never even noticed that!) So, we went exploring and sure enough, there in the shed where they sleep were three tiny little black kittens. Unbelievable! So, we are now the proud parents of not two but five cats! Fun stuff!

26 Weeks

This picture a few weeks past due since I am about 29 weeks now, but it's the latest "pregnant" picture I have right now. I will try to remember to get Eric to take another picture sometime in the next week.

Baby Shower

I'm finally getting around to posting pictures from the baby shower at my job in Abilene. The wonderful people I worked with were sweet enough to have the shower for me before we moved.

Cute

I found these pictures on our camera the other day and remembered I wanted to post them on here. This is my sweet friend April's little girl Marcella. She and Eric made fast friends...although I think there might have been some specific reason she was drawn to him! :-)

"Look at my new hat, momma!"

Here you go, Eric, you can have it back now.

Dr. Appointment

Yesterday was my doctor's appointment and sonogram, and everything is still looking good. Here are the current stats:

Weight: +1 pound
Blood Pressure: 108/62
Baby's heart rate: 150
Baby's weight: 2 lbs. 8 oz.

I had the lucky fortune of getting a big shot yesterday (Rhogam because my blood type is A-) and getting to drink some yummy orange drink and then having my blood drawn for the glucose screening. Sounds like fun, huh! I go back in two weeks (yep...I'm already at the point where I get to go every two weeks) and hopefully will find out that the glucose test came back okay. Baby Lew was not quite as active for this sonogram as we was the last, but he is still just at cute (or at least I think so!). He was sound asleep this time and was hiding his face with both his hands and his feet. But they said he looked great, and everything (stomach, kidneys, brain, heart, etc.) appeared to be in proper working order.

In other news...today I had a job interview at a bank in Gainesville for a teller position. I think it went okay, so now I will just wait and see. If that doesn't work out I am just going to substitute teach in Callisburg for now. We will see...
