Good Morning my lovely friends and family!
I realize it has been quite awhile. School started up again on the 15th so I've been adjusting to getting up early, making it through the day without a nap, and spending most of my day with 12 year olds. So far, the year has been great too! The crappiest part is that our enrollment is lower than projected so another English teacher was moved to another site. I'm really sad to see her go and have to transition like this 2 weeks into the school year. In order to balance the schedule all of my classes were dissolved and I am taking over that teacher's schedule. That means I will be teaching all 8th grade starting Monday. I hate to lose the kids I started the year with, but it will be nice to have some kids from last year back. The first couple of my past students have figured out I am pregnant too. One of the sweetest girls from last year saw me after school and did a double take looking at my belly before asking if I was pregnant. Knowing her personality, all of my 8th graders should know soon!
Baby Update Time!!
I am about 18 and a half weeks along and Little Baby Hoff has started wiggling up a storm! And I'm already losing sleep from this booger. The movement doesn't wake me up yet, but it definitely makes it hard to fall back asleep if he/she is moving. I had a doctor's appointment last week and the doctor couldn't find the heartbeat using the doppler. It kept picking up my heartbeat instead, so he did an ultrasound to check on LBH. It was great being able to see the baby! It was staring right at us and waving it's arms around like crazy. We got a great picture of it looking at us and waving one hand (Adam says "he" is giving a high-five).
Also, the baby is about 5 1/2 inches long by now and can hear my heartbeat. It won't be long before it hears things outside the womb too. LBH's bones are also hardening.
So, baby is doing good. I'm doing good. Adam's doing good. Philbert is doing good.
Life is good :-)
