32 Weeks

Getting bigger!  I never knew getting out of bed could be such hard work in the mornings!

Molly posed for me even though she didn't want to!

Our precious baby, Molly! 

32 weeks is here!  That means I survived the entire first week of school.  My feet are not very happy with the fact that I've returned to school.....but it is what it is!  School has gone well.  I have successfully moved the chorus room to a different wing at the school (thanks to the help of some great friends, co-workers, and one awesome husband) and all was ready for the kiddos to come in on August 15th! I'm able to sneak a snack during my boy's chorus class and I've told them that as long as they didn't make a mess, they could eat a snack too.  Of course, we keep the door closed so no one will see us!  :-)  And, the best part the new school year has been the installation of a modern day marvel called the thermostat in my room.  I've tested it out all week and have realized it gets quite cold and works great.   They students have shivered all week.  Meanwhile, I'm still sweating. 

We're putting the final touches on the nursery.  I've started packing my hospital bag.  I've also conquered the great task of finding a pediatrician and reserving Baby Bonds a spot in daycare. 

We started prepared birth classes at Crestwood Hospital (even though we're delivering at Huntsville Hospital) for the past two week.  They have been interesting to say the least!  For what it's worth, I would like for everyone to know I DO WANT an epidural.  So to whomever takes me to the hospital or is in the room with me after my husband passes out, please tell the doctor! :-)

Really the only things left on the to do list are:

1. Tour the hospital
2. Pre Register at the hospital
3. Have the car seat fitted at Huntsville Hospital (can you believe they only do that a couple of days each week?)
4. Win the lottery!!!  :-)

Baby Bonds got to experience his first football game of the season from inside the womb.  I hope he liked it and was comfortable while he had a leg/foot jammed in between my ribs.  It was quite painful for mommy, but we all survived.  And, we were able to cheer on the BHS Bucks and "Coach Bonds" to their first win of the season against Madison County at the Jamboree. 

We are still waiting on the results of the iron test from last week.  I'm praying iron levels are normal and no infusions are needed!

We love you all!  We are so thankful for the prayers for our growing family.  I have received so many sweet emails, text, phone calls these past few weeks.  They have meant the world to me!
