The rain has been a HUGE blessing and this pregnant lady couldn't have seen it come at a better time - well, except for maybe three weeks ago. :) Nonetheless, thank you Lord for the rain and the lowered temperatures! It's fun that at moments it already seems like the start of fall - which is my absolute favorite season. And then I realize, "Oh my gosh - I'll be having a baby this fall!" Crazy.
Speaking of baby - we had our first of two "baby classes" all day Saturday. We were one of 8 other couples and the whole day was surreal, exciting, informative, and scary as hell at some points to realize that we were going to actually be experiencing everything we were learning about in 2.5 months! Still can't believe it sometimes...this week's class was all about the actual labor/delivery part and next week focuses more on the aftermath such as medical care, bathing, and all those things after the baby is born. Funny enough, but I seemed to be the only one in the class who was more concerned with AFTER baby is born than the labor/delivery part! SURELY I'll get completely freaked out and nervous the closer it gets, but for some odd reason (my husband thinks I'm weird), I'm just not that nervous about it...maybe it's the pain I've already experienced from kidney stones? Or the comforting fact that hundreds of thousands of women give birth DAILY - surely I can do it, too, right?
One thing's for sure - we can't wait for Lincoln to be here! I've been getting sick again at night the past couple of days and that's never fun. Hopefully that won't last very much longer. especially since school's about to start and I'll have to be at work at 8:00 (summers as a school-based therapist are pretty easy!!).
The Olympics have been fun! Jason has gotten me into the spirit of them and on the Phelps train. :) Well, I guess that's enough for now...
