Last night I happened to think it's been awhile since I've updated the blog...over a month! Sorry folks, but the month of May can be summed up pretty easily. Get up, go to work, come home, nap, bath, dinner, and bed....repeat! There's a new level of end of year teacher tired...end of year pregnant teacher tired, that's why there wasn't a blog update for May! However, we made it through the Little Feet Meet, graduation, paperwork, conferences, and packing up my classroom...thanks to the fabulous girls at school.
Baby Andrew is just growing and wiggling away, we are up to going to the doctor every week. It worked out great, weekly appointments didn't start until school was out! After 36 weeks, Dr. Darroca said we are good to go anytime contractions start up again. Top secret that we finally let out, we actually have been to the hospital three times since March. Weird pains and feeling that something wasn't right, it just happened to be contractions which they were able to stop and we were able to keep on moving along. We didn't really let anyone know because the contractions stopped and we didn't want everyone to panic, but confession is good for the soul and we finally told both our moms! If this blog is to accurately document our journey, I guess I'll keep it real with you folks!
We were blessed with a shower in Marion and a surprise shower at preschool! Steph and Marie organized an awesome football shower, and Carrie and Amanda added some tailgate foods to the menu. It was great to see my teacher friends and First Friends ladies and celebrate, plus it gave me one more chance to break out my #1 jersey! I came home and Joe got to unload the gifts and open them again to see all our goodies.

School is out, so life these days consists of walking around Meijer, Target, or the mall, taking naps, watching TV, or attempting to do something productive around the house. Doctor visits are on Thursdays, so hopefully this week we will have some progress to report.

Who knows, maybe the next blog post I write will be about Baby Andrew's arrival or it may be an update on how he loves kicking my ribs...it's all up to the Baby now! Please keep us in your prayers as we just try and patiently wait for our little guy to make his much anticipated entrance, pray for a safe delivery and healthy baby and mama!
I'll leave you with some pics of the showers and the nursery, we are surely blessed!
Love,
Sarah & Joe
