30 weeks

We hit the 30 week mark yesterday (Saturday)!!! One more week and we will be into single digits. I have said it before and Ill say it again...this pregnancy seems to have flown by. The closer we get to the due date, the more excited I get!! Excited to meet this little man (who is constantly moving around in my belly); excited to see what Karsen thinks; excited to see how Karsen interacts with him; and excited to finally give this kid a name! Haha. Bruce and I have talked about names but dont seem particularly stricken by any of them. We've got 9-10 weeks to figure it out!

This last week at school was as crazy as ever, and this happens to be my busy time of year.With graduation right around the corner (and a new 8th grade teaching partner), my plate is QUITE full. Luckily, I have done it for the last 3 years, so I like to think that I can handle it with no issue.

The best part about this week...Spring break has officially started! Thursday was our last day so Friday got Spring Break started. I spent the entire morning on Friday at the doctors office taking part in the 3 hour glucose test. Boo. That first hour of this test is always the worst. I had to fast prior to the test, and then chug a VERY sugary drink. I felt like I could have gotten sick right in the middle of the office. I remember feeling that same way when I took this test with Karsen. With Karsen, when my results came back the nurse said "You passed with flying colors" so I am hopeful I hear the same thing this time around too. We have also started doctors appointments every two weeks so I have another appointment coming up on Tuesday afternoon. I still feel like a lot of the baby kicks are in the lower part of my belly so I am wondering if this kid is still breech. I am hopeful the doctor can confirm or deny that for me at the appointment. With a c section, I guess it doesnt really matter what direction he is facing, but I would prefer head down when it come time to evict!


Rocking on his chair. He loves it!


That face!

He was kicking the ball down the hill, going to get it, then running it back up.


Time for the slide.

And the 30 week bump picture!



How far along? 30 weeks. Size of a head of cabbage.
Total weight gain: Ill stick with 13 pounds for now. I will confirm total weight gain when I go into my appointment Tuesday. 
Maternity clothes: Anything with loose elastic. It's getting harder to maneuver in general (with a bigger belly to come) so I just want to make sure I can move as freely as possible.
Sleep: Sleep has been good. Getting up just once per night to use the bathroom. 
Best moment this week: Spring break started!
Miss anything? Still wine. Always wine.
Movement: Still a lot of kicks and still waiting to feel kicks higher in my belly.
Food cravings: Still raspberry flavored iced tea. Yum!
Symptoms: Tight belly...and tired early in the evening.
Belly button in or out? In. 
Wedding rings on or off? On and comfortable.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Let's be honest, I am fairly moody. I think I am just ready to meet this kid and enjoy summer with he and Karsen. 
Looking forward to: Didnt pass the first 1 hour glucose test so I guess I am now looking forward to the results from my 3 hour test. I hope and pray I pass but if not, I will make it work. I am also looking forward to the week at home with my little buddy!
