23 Weeks 5 Days

I am still in shock how fast this pregnancy is going by! Yesterday we had a regularly scheduled OB appointment and everything is still looking great. Blood pressure was normal and I am now up 10 lbs in weight gain. I am actually back to my starting weight before getting pregnant - I actually lost 9 lbs. when i first became pregnant and sadly I attribute this to not drinking beer and wine anymore. *sigh*

Baby Calk is moving A LOT and I love it. S/he is in the breech position currently and makes that very obvious by kicking me in my bladder regularly.

Next OB appointment I am scheduled for my 1 hour glucose test and I am praying that I pass that without any issue. I also need to schedule my 30 week ultrasound in the next week or two!

Beginning in July we start getting really busy! July 4th weekend Bruce, my sister-in-law Maria, my brother-in-law Robbie and Maria's 72 year old father are running in the Peachtree Road Race here in Atlanta. There are 2 people listed above that have been training regularly for this race and the other two...not so much. Let's just say that the 72 year old will be smoking Maria and Bruce in this race. :) Him and Robbie will be running together, while Maria and Bruce bring up the rear. They are crazy! Bruce has train a whole one day...yep, one day. Thank God they have medics working the race. ;)

The weekend of July 11th we are heading to Michigan where my in-laws are throwing our first baby shower for us! We are too excited!

The weekend of July 24th we are heading to Akron where my relatives are hosting a second shower for us. It has been too long since I have been to Akron and cannot wait to see all my aunts, uncles and cousins!

When we return, Bruce and I will be taking a week off of work to be with each other. Probably go to the pool a lot and working on these nasty tan lines that tennis has given me and enjoy yummy dinners around Atlanta.

At the end of August, my favorite girls are hosting a shower for me in Atlanta. And in September, my mom's friends are hosting another shower for me. I am a lucky girl. And from the looks of it - Baby Calk will not be without everything s/he needs.

I think that is it for now! XOXOXOXOXOXOXO
