Prepared Childbirth Class

Well I managed to drag Shawn to the class last weekend... It was pretty basic information for me, but since he hasn't read a lot I think it was good for us to hear it all together. We did some relaxation exercises and some breathing stuff too. Plus there were the obligatory birth videos that he turned away from every time! :) Oh well! It was good overall, the lady was really nice, and she seems to know our new Family Doctor and thinks well of him. We are going to use Shawn's doctor as our pediatrician too since he does family medicine. We know him and he'll be able to come up to the hospital right when he's born and check him out for us...

Anyway, we only have 6 and a half weeks left! And we still are somewhat unprepared! I know he'll be fine even if he does have to come home to no crib, but I'm hoping we'll get that and set it up soon... This weekend Kristen and hopefully Brandy will be coming down for a few days. We are going to stay with Sarah:) All my bridesmaids together again except my sister! It'll be a girls' weekend, and Shawn is having Matt down too so we'll both be having fun with old friends...

Bryce is kicking or squirming all the time now, but especially when I'm laying down. I have gotten to the point of having feet in my ribs all the time and I have to say, I liked it better before he could kick me this hard in my bones! He's a pretty strong little guy, and sometimes he likes to just wedge his foot in there and not move it. I'm left to try to stretch it out or move around til it isn't as irritating! :) That's all for now! I've got another doctor's appointment on Thursday (tomorrow).

Just 8 more weeks! :p

Well, we only have 8 weeks left to wait! I am almost done with summer school (just 2 more weeks!) and that means I am almost done with college! I will have all my graduation requirements fulfilled and I'll just be taking 2 online classes this fall and I'll graduate in December. So things are getting nearer and nearer, and everything is about to change for us.

They announced last week that the place I'm working is closing down on July 31, 2005! It actually works out pretty well for me, since that is 2 weeks before our due date... That means I'll only be working for 6 more weeks! Kinda crazy! Bryce is almost here, and Shawn will be going back to school full time and not working starting in August. He'll graduate in May!

Anyway, I am just rambling, but I did have a doctor's appointment last week and everything looks good still. I had gained 21 pounds in almost 32 weeks... Other than that nothing new. I am going to the doctor every 2 weeks now. We actually had to reschedule our Childbirth class to this weekend coming up, June 25. We'll see how it goes!
