Project 365: Day 39-42

Ok. Yea. I'm behind. SORRY! But I'm pretty sure this tops all of my pictures so far... hung out with the parentals this morning and as mom and I walked out of her office this is what we found...

And... later J and I are watching the two youngest Flint Monsters... so I'm sure I'll have more pictures to share :)

32 Week Prenatal Appointment, Birthing Classes, Meal Plan, and.... No Picture

Yesterday was a looooong looooong day! Went to my 32 week prenatal appointment yesterday morning... took FOREVER. Janelle went with me and we waited, and waited, and waited, and waited... until she finally came in to hear Elah's heartbeat and measure me. We were there for close to 2 hours! Anyways, Elah is doing fabulously (is that a word?) and now I am completing my 24 hour urine sample that I have to take back tomorrow. Yay me! LOL.

Last night was our first birthing class, it was well... interesting. The instructor is nice, she's super loud, but she's nice and she knows what she is talking about. I was a little disappointed with what we "learned" because I already knew everything she talked to us about, even Justin knew all of that stuff from me telling him about it lol. There are also some pretty interesting characters in our class... for instance... one girl was in one of my classes last semester and when I told my instructor that I was pregnant (in like May) she announced it to the entire class. Well this girl made a point to tell me that she could never get pregnant at such a young age or while she was still in school because she didn't want a child to hinder her performance.... Lo and behold! She's pregnant! She's 5 weeks behind me, so yea... I giggled when I saw her! After class had already started this group of people came in, an older lady with 3 teenagers... they might have been 17 or 18 tops. Well, it turns out that one of the girls was the older lady's daughter, the boy was her son, and the other girl was the boy's girlfriend.... both girls are due on the SAME day! So this grandma is getting two grandbabies at the same time! Yikes! So yea... interesting.

Justin and I also decided to try and clean out the food and ingredients we already have in our kitchen before we go grocery shopping. So we have a 7 day meal plan with the foods we have readily available.

This week we are making:
Chicken Quesadillas
Chili
Shepherd's Pie (or as the Flint Monsters call it... Sheep's Pie)
Soup & Sandwiches
Breakfast for Dinner
Fajitas
Baked Mac n Cheese w/Broccoli

And.... I don't have any pictures for yesterday or today... sorry. I'll make up for it tomorrow I promise!

Project 365: Day 38


Project 365: Day 37


I don't look huge in this picture... but let me tell ya, I FEEL huge! I also feel like I'm carrying Miss Elah really low because of how heavy my belly feels... AND everytime I stand up I have to pee BAD! So I'm 32 weeks today which means potentially... Elah could be here in 5-10 weeks! EEK! I can't wait! Well... I can... I'd love to skip over all the pain and just skip to the Elah part, but can't do that! LOL

Spring 2011 Class Schedule

So this coming spring semester I'm retaking World Civilizations... however I chose a DIFFERENT professor and I'm taking it in a classroom setting this time! I also staggered my classes so that they start at different times!

SOC 240 (Social Psychology) starts on January 10th and it's online.
BIO 110 (Principles of Biology) - I dropped this one during fall semester - starts January 24 and is also online
HIS 111 (World Civ I) starts on March 8 and ends on April 5... it's at the school "campus" at the mall on MWF from 6pm-9pm
HUM 115 (Critical Thinking) starts on March 8 and ends at the end of the semester with my first 2 classes (which is May 10)... and this one is online as well.

Elah could be here anywhere between mid december and the 2nd week in January... so I hope by staggering my classes this way I won't be completely overwhelmed. March and April will be my toughest months since I'll have all 4 classes going at the same time... but I can do it!
