Time Is Flying By.........30 Weeks

It is hard to believe we just had our 30 week appointment.  Time has really flown by this last month.  It seems like yesterday we were discussing having a baby and now we only have 8-10 more weeks until our little man arrives. 

Vince and I went to our first pre-nantal class last Thursday and another one this Thursday.  At the end of the session we were to lay on our mats and pillows and go through a relaxing session.  The instructor had calming music with a narrator telling you how to relax.  Well, our little man was making it very hard for his mom to relax.  As we were laying there Vince and I couldn't quit laughing because you could see our little guys body parts poking out through my shirt.  He almost got us kicked out, well not really but probably should have been.  He seems to become more and more active as the  days go on.  I think Vince and I could sit and watch him move around all day everyday. 

The Dr. said everything looked great at my 30 week appointment.  I have been fighting off some really bad shin splints and was hoping the Dr. would have some positive advice / medicine for them but I had no luck!  He pretty much said there was nothing I could do about them.  I am not aloud taking any medicine for them so I guess I need to just fight through them. (hello everyone, this is Vince - and the Dr. actually said to rest them, not fight through them - just a point of clarification)

As far as work goes, it is also hard to believe that I only have 4 weeks left of my student teaching.  Time has really flown by and I am starting to get really attached to the students.  The other day one of the little boys in the class said to me that he didn't know I was pregnant and thought I just started eating a lot when I started working at the school.  Little comments like this is what makes my days so interesting!  As far as Vince's job goes he has been extremely busy this last month which is always a good thing.

The little guys nursery is finally done.  It actually didn't take very long at all.  Things came together really quickly.  When I start doing something I just want it done!  Now, all we need is our little guy to liven up the room!  Check out some pictures below!





The next couple weeks should be pretty calm and relaxing for us.  We plan on getting some more yard work done.  Last weekend was spent weeding, edging and mulching so this weekend I will probably tackle the flowers.  Vince is participating in a triathlon in Jersery over Memorial Day weekend so he is looking forward to that.  My next appoitnment is June 3rd and hopefully everything is still going as planned by then.  Keep checking back for updates on baby Jenkins.
