Growing a Baby

Baby McGah is definitely getting bigger and bigger, and moving around lots! The other night Pat and I just watched my stomach for a few minutes as we could see it moving around a ton...sort of looked like an alien was in there :) It's obvious now when she is awake and when she is asleep. She wakes up after each meal and each night she's awake during the 9:00 hour in addition to many other times during the day. Sometimes during the school day I wonder if my students could notice my stomach moving because it seems so obvious to me. We'll have to see if they ever say anything about it.

Last night I had my first labor dream--I was going into labor but ended up walking to the hospital from my parents house because everyone was coming with us but was taking a long time to pack their bags. Maybe it's a sign I should start packing our hospital bag so I feel a little more ready?!? I do have a list already started of what we want to pack :)

Overall I've been feeling good although teaching is becoming more and more tiring. I'm trying to come home and take a nap as many days as I can which helps a lot. I do wish that yoga pants were part of the HNA dress code because I would be wearing them everyday if I could!

As I uploaded the 8th month picture today we both found it pretty amazing to look back at the pictures of all the months of the pregnancy--the shirt I wear used to be pretty loose :)
