24 Week Appointment and other news...

I went for my 24 week appointment this past Thursday. It was uneventful - which is always great! My doctor said that everything looked and sounded good. I have to go for my glucose test sometime in the next couple of weeks. I go back to the doctor in 4 weeks, then after that, she sees me every 2 weeks. I can't believe how fast this pregnancy is going! Bebe Cole will be here before we know it!

*******************************************

We decided to go ahead and take our house off the market this week. We have had it for sale since April and nothing has happened with it. We decided since we only have about 3 1/2 months before Cole will be here and the fact that I am not working this year, that it would be best to wait and put it back out for sale in the Spring.

Now, to that *not working this year* thing. I did not receive any offers for a job this school year, so we decided I get to stay home with Halle (and Bebe Cole after he arrives). I didn't push for a job as hard as I did last year. I knew the likelyhood of me getting hired was slim since I am pregnant. I have decided that I am going to sub this year so I can get my foot into the door of the school where I would like to teach (and send my children). I am really excited about being a stay at home mommy this year. It is a new adventure for me. Until this summer, I have never been able to stay home with Halle. Yes, we are going to have to adjust to one income now, since I received my last paycheck last week, but it is so worth it to me. I have always envied the moms who get to stay home and raise their children. It is such a privilege! It also gives me extra time to spend with just Halle before Cole arrives.
