Quick Update

Yikes, it's been a bit since I've updated this blog. I do want to put up more pics of "the belly" and of the paint job in the baby's room. Hopefully that'll be soon... We're almost to trimester 3, crazy!
But for now, here are some quick takes on the happenings in our life...

--It's cold here...but I'm sure my family in Illinois has it much worse.
--We saw Peggy, (our midwife) on Friday, and baby LaRock is doing swell.
--Baby LaRock is kicking like crazy now, and it feels strange and amazing all at the same time. Joseph came over the other day and I got baby to kick his hand...haha, made him yelp! It does feel strange.
--We started our Bradley birthing class last night. Good times were had by all 5 couples. It was nice to be around other moms with baby bellies!
--Peter is a sweetheart.
--Work is work--I start training the new conference coordinator on Friday.
--Peter is applying for new jobs--pray for that venture if you think of it.
--We had a lot of company over the holidays! Mom, dad and several of the kids came for Thanksgiving, and then Janessa and her husband Justin came for the New Year. It was good to see them all.
--We had fun with the LaRock's over the holidays as well. We had a great poker game between Peter, Mom and Dad LaRock and myself on New Year's eve.
--I'm amazed at how much "stuff" one needs for a new baby!
--I've decided that the many potty runs that a pregnant woman makes at night must be God's way of gently preparing her for the nights when baby doesn't feel like sleeping...
--Peter rubs my tummy every night with this massage oil, and boy does it feel good!

Haha, so much of these are about the baby, but what can I say? He's only altering my life completely:-)

Have a great day!

  • Always nice to hear updates, especially now that we're far away. :-( We'll be praying for Peter's job search. Don't forget to check for opportunities around Raleigh. ;-) Okay, well maybe that's just me. We'll pray he find the right job, wherever and whatever it is!

    That belly rub sounds pretty nice, too, lol. I got really itchy sometimes with all that skin stretching!

  • How wonderful to hear about your growing family. It sounds like you had lots of good family time over the holidays. Yes, it's frightfully cold in the midwest too!
