Bed Rest Countdown: 6

6 weeks down/10 weeks to go and 28 weeks pregnant!  I've made it to the 3rd trimester and this little guy probably weighs in at 2.5lbs and measures about 16 inches long.  I'm pretty sure he has been my most active baby and most evenings it feels like he's having a party.


Highlights this week include ladies Bible study, my sweet friend Nancy and her kiddos coming for a play date, watching the kids play with Ava's new bug vacuum, surprise loaves of homemade bread on the porch, and JG making us all breakfast this morning.  I also started focusing on things I can accomplish while laying here and I started a few projects: reading a book on DLSR cameras, taking continuing ed classes online, planning a Sunday school "Minute to Win It" social, starting the process of finding a nanny for August and September, and thinking about baby names.  I've enjoyed craft and cooking blog browsing and found a great healthy cooking blog: skinnytaste and have saved a few cute craft projects that I might eventually be able to make for the baby's room.  I am also hooked on searching Craigslist for a few household items: white IKEA expedit shelving for the playroom, a larger kitchen table with a bench, and a cute white desk for Ava's room. Working on all these different things is helping this time pass more quickly and I can't believe that after Sunday, summer break is 1/2 way over!
