Hey all :)
Well, back to the routine! Wake up, blog, breakfast, school :) 8 more weeks until school is out! (counting this week). Then, three more weeks until Baby!!
Today we have a sonogram at 3:30pm - so I cannot wait to see the little baby again! It's been a while, so it will be interesting to see what little Cletus looks like!!
It feels like the baby is pretending my stomach is a set of conga drums lately - or maybe Cletus is playing soccer? Whatever is happening, there will be kicking/punching? on the right hand side of my stomach, and then immediately some kicking on the left, and then baby decides to alternate - crazy stuff! That little person is BUSY in there! Doing what? I'm not sure... is this a sign for how busy the baby will be when we get to meet the little person?
Have a great day everyone! And just a note to my family - you guys are great! I love you!!
Love to everyone,
Laura

Last Day of Spring Break
Good morning, everyone :)
Hope you all had a nice Easter weekend!
Today is my last day of Spring Break - then... 8 more weeks of school. I can do this!! :)
We were able to pick up the crib and changing table from my mom last week- very exciting! It's the same crib and changing table that my mom used when I was a baby! So cute :) We've checked out all the guidelines, so it's safe to use - don't worry!
I thought I would include some pictures from Galveston - it was a fun trip! Thanks, Garman family, for having us down to visit!!!
Love

Last email from the beach :) Or only the 2nd! Sorry!!! I got caught up in relaxing :) Sounds so tough, I know!!
Our trip to Galveston was a really fun - and just great to get away! I will post some pictures probably tomorrow - not too many, but some cute ones :)
Today is 28 weeks! Wow.... and the countdown is into the 80s (84 days, I think). Baby is getting closer!!

It's Monday :)
Hey Family and Friends! Aunt Mary reminded me about the blog today - it's Monday!
Mom, Mary, Ian and I are in Galveston, TX and having fun :) Yesterday it was warm and sunny! (And I heard it was cold and snowy in Chicago - yuck!) And then today was another beautiful day as well :)
Baby Bally is doing pretty good! Kicking and enjoying TX as well - I'm not sure if he enjoyed the plane though? He was moving around alot when the engine first fired up and we took off, but seemed to do better once we got in the sky :) (Of course this could all be in my head, too!)
It was fun to see all the little Garman grandkids and just imagine what it will be like when meet our little baby!!
Hope you are all having a good start to the week - love you all!

The 100th post :)
Good morning, all!
As the subject line says - this is the 100th post! Kinda neat :) I'll have to make sure that I print all of these out to save for Baby Bally - it might be fun to read through these when he/she is older! I can hear it now.... "Mo-oommmm.... that was embarrassing!" haha... thanks for reading all this time! :)
I checked some different websites yesterday and they said that 27 weeks is the START of the third trimester! So I guess I'm there! Whoo-hoo! Although I can hardly believe it, I"m super excited as well! Actually... I can believe it - my stomach is getting really big and I'm starting that pregnant woman 'waddle' a little bit!! haha
90 more days until the due date - these 10 day marks are just going to fly by, I have a feeling! A couple more things to look forward to...
1. Spring Break for me and Ian starts tonight! We're driving up to the Mom's in the suburbs and then flying to Galveston Island with Mom and Mary to meet up with the Garman family (Mom's brother and his family) Should be really fun! I will try and post while I'm down there - I think there will be computers :)
2. Next sonogram- April 14th - Tuesday :)
3. Epideral class Wednesday - why am I looking forward to this? :)
So after Spring Break there are 8 weeks of school left, then 3 more weeks until baby! Should go by pretty quickly :)
Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!!
Love
Laura

Happy Milestone Day!
Today Baby is 6 months!! 27 weeks old :) I can hardly believe Ian and I have been going through this adventure for 5 months so far (the first month you don't really know you're pregnant) and we only have 3 more months to go! It will go quickly, but as my mom reminded me last night, I'm still going to get MUCH bigger!
This is the last week of the 2nd trimester - so the third and final starts next Thursday :) I am so excited that I can feel the little babe kicking and playing around in his or her little home - the baby is definitely growing! (And yes, there is only ONE baby!) ;)
I'm feeling really well and it just seems to be an a-ok pregnancy so far :) I am starting to get a chubby face though - I can feel it when I talk!! hehe
Ian and I might take some pics tonight before we leave - I definitely have that pregnant belly now!
Love you all,
Laura

Crazy news!!
Good morning, all!
Some crazy news - my OB called me last night, and said he was looking over the ultrasound pictures and saw not just ONE baby in there but TWO!!! I can hardly believe it!! Our own Laura and Ian plus two story :) :) I'm surprised I'm not getting any bigger than I am yet? But that explains all the big kicking - there's probably not much room in there!!
Let's see... besides that - saw some kicking again at a staff meeting yesterday - it's the craziest thing! Like aliens trying to get out of my stomach or something :) Very cool though - I guess we can now interact with the baby (or babies!!) because they can feel when we are touching them - so cool!
1/2 way through the week - phew! I'm getting observed today by the principal - I picked a class that wasn't the best, wasn't the worst - just average :) so hopefully it will go well!!!
Have a great day everyone!
Love
Laura
