Baby at 22 weeks (12' long). I am pretty much living in dresses and leggings (or stockings) these days. They are so comfortable!!
We go to the ultrasound place to get updated pictures of Rockwell today (by today, I mean last Wednesday - for some reason this post did not post until now). If they are good, I will post them someday (the only photo I like is of his long feet). I think he looks like an orc (from LOTR) in his 20 week pictures because of the way the screen blurs the edges. Please, ignore the pile of reusable grocery bags that are waiting to go back out to my car. I was so proud of myself for remembering them on Saturday when I went grocery shopping.
I made gumbo this weekend and I am eating it for lunch each day (with extra Tabasco sauce) and it doesn't seem to be killing me. The only thing right now that is giving me heartburn is tomato sauce (oh spaghetti and lasagna and stuffed shells I miss you).
I have 6 labs down this semester and 6 more to go. I can't believe the semester is half way finished already. It is so much easier to teach a class that you have taught before (even better if you have taught it 3 times before). This week's lab was on electricity and motors; it is my favorite lab.
Verse of the day:
"...In love he predestined us for adoption ..."
I have been marvelling at that portion of the verse today. I have never noticed the, "in love" part before or it just never stuck out to me. I love how deep the Bible is. I look forward to reading it to our little baby. He will probably point out things to me that I have never noticed and ask me questions that make me rethink things I thought I knew.
Okay here is the rest:
"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. In love he predestined us for adoption as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will,"
(Ephesians 1:3-5 ESV)
I couldn't have tomatoes the entire pregnancy...one of my favorite foods. It was so sad! I would try and cheat every once in a while, but it wasn't really worth it.
ReplyDeleteI ate a lot of tomatoes right after I had Molly. ;)
