My Pregnancy at 11 weeks



I can't believe how far I have come since this beautiful fall day! My body has changed so much. I miss that waistline! I miss hiking to the top of mountains. I often ask myself, will I ever feel normal again and do the things I used to?

SNOW DAYS and SHOWERS

Snow days are wonderful days when you are a teacher, and pregnant! I have enjoyed three unexpected days off and it has been glorious! The best part is, I won't have to worry about making them up because I will be on maternity leave in May! Yesterday, I took the opportunity to take advantage of my time off and plan a baby shower for one of my best friends, who is having triplets! A bunch of ladies came over in the ice and snow and we had lemon muffins, brownies, and sweet tea and made tons of plans! I was amazed at how much we accomplished! It was so much fun. I mean, how often do you get to plan a shower for someone having triplets! I can't reveal any of the specifics at this time because it's a secret. But if you are friends of Kami, mark your calendar for March 7th, 2-4p.m. You don't want to miss this shower! It is going to be fantastic!

Welcome to the blog!

Andrew and I are so excited to start blogging our journey through pregnancy and through the expansion of our family. Andi Mae is set to arrive May 15, 2009 and it seems like everyday we are making more and more preparations for her arrival. I came home from Bunko last night and Andrew was busy shampooing the carpet in the nursery. He's such a wonderful man! Our latest milestone was Andi Mae's movement during the business meeting at church on Monday night. I was sitting in the pew next to Paula and leaned over to her and Kami and said, "Hey girls, watch my stomach." We could just see her going to town in there! Paula put her hand on my stomach and felt her move! Other than Andrew, she's the only person to feel her. It was exciting!
