Busy Week!

There's not too much to report on, but I thought it was about time! This seemed to be a long week started off by a LONG last weekend attempting to register for baby items! Talk about PAINFUL! My wonderful hubby and I went together to Babies R Us and Target, but when you have almost no idea what you're looking for... well, then things begin to get difficult which was pretty much right away! We did the best we could and tried to enjoy ourselves. Some things are just a lot more fun to pick out than others, that's for sure! We got the bulk of it done last weekend and slowly but surely, we can amend the list. We know we may end up buying many of the items ourselves, but Babies R Us has this nice perk of giving you 10% off anything that hasn't been purchased right around the time the baby is born, so that will be nice!

This week, Gregg ran into a few bumps in the road with school. I think it's just taking a little time to get used to each class's pace. He is taking a VERY large class load, 17 credits on top of working full time. He actually just got approval from his boss to work four 10 hour days instead of his regular 5 day schedule. For some reasons, like getting him on Friday nights will be nice, but it will be hard for him to work such long days during the week and him not coming home until midnight each night. I'm really going to have to learn to go to bed before he gets home now! He really wanted this schedule change, so hopefully it will work out well!

We had a check up on Friday for the baby as well. Things seem to be going good! I mentioned to her that I'm afraid our baby could be huge...considering Gregg was born a Moose...somewhere around 10.5 lbs! I will definitely be considering a C-Section should she announce a possible 9+ lb baby! She said we'd worry more about that down the road, but it didn't help when my uterus measured 2 centimeters bigger than 21 weeks and put me at 23!! She said that can be common at this time and we would look into it more if I'm still running big at my next appointment at the end of February! Ah ha ha... SIGH! She also told us that it may be very possible for us to go to Gregg's sister, Leslie's college graduation in May in Laramie, WY. I was a little concerned as it's only a month away from our due date and a 5.5 hour drive. But she said we would schedule an appointment that week and as long as everything looks good, she's fine with me going, so that's Great news! It didn't help when Leslie told me that Laramie has a not-so-great hospital! Gregg and I are really looking forward to going, so we'll pray everything goes well. Apparently, I will get another ultrasound at 32 weeks having tested positive for the blood clot issues as a check up, so that will be fun. And again, we'll just pray that it all goes well!

Other than that, not much is new here! We're trying to get little things ready in our apartment for the move at the end of February and trying to keep things mellow! Gregg has been stressing out a bit with school, so I just pray that he gets more used to his schedule and his classes won't be as daunting throughout the semester. We knew this would be a hard semester for him, but I hope it's not too rough on him. Moving and getting ready for this baby has put a lot more on his plate. But if anyone can handle it, I'm sure he will!
