23 Weeks

It's been a busy few weeks - The fall quarter started this week, so I've been getting back into the swing of teaching again. I am teaching 4 classes this quarter, which is considered a full load at the college level. It's been hectic getting all of my syllabi, worksheets and other paperwork printed and ready for the students. Also, my body is adjusting to all of the standing and walking around, which has been tough since I have been off of work for the past month! But, so far, so good - we are hanging in there!

Here is my 23 week picture:

In other baby news, Easton has been moving and kicking up a storm lately. I can feel all of the flutters & movement inside, but we haven't felt anything from the outside quite yet. I am hoping Jason will be able to feel a kick really soon. We have our next doctor appointment next week on Wednesday October 7th at 2:30pm - please say a prayer that we get a great report. I'll also schedule my glucose test at my next appointment, which means I will have to drink a syrupy orange-flavored liquid to determine if my blood sugar stays at a normal level. I've heard that the liquid tastes nasty, so hopefully I do well on the first test and don't have to repeat it :-)

We've been working on getting Easton's room together - we received SO many nice gifts from our two showers, so now we are trying to figure out the best way to organize clothing, hats/booties/socks, toys, etc. We have another shower coming up on October 25th with our Michigan friends, so there are more goodies & gifts to come! Easton is such a lucky little guy, and we are blessed to have so many people that love & support us.
