Well, we are officially at week 8, almost to week 9, and I just can't believe how fast it is flying by. It was so amazing to see the baby and hear the heartbeat last week. We are so excited for the next appointment so that we can see how much he/she has changed.

Week 8 was also my first week back to school after a 2 week spring break! The break was amazing, but it was nice to get back into my routine. I was starting to love my long naps a little too much. :-) By the end of the week I started feeling pretty uncomfortable in my pants. Hehe...that sounds funny. But seriously, I found that I was needing to unbutton my pants whenever I was going to sit. Time for some new clothes I guess. I am also feeling the pregnancy side effects at full force. Let's just say it is hard to teach when you feel like you are going to puke every 5 minutes. Oh well, it is all worth it! I am just hoping that the yucky feeling will pass soon.

As for Jake, Frankie gave him a book called "Pregnancy Sucks For Men" in the hopes that it would help him understand everything that is going on with the pregnancy. Even though the book makes me out to be a crazy, angry, beached whale, it is quite hilarious. It has become our evening ritual to flip it open and read about the terrifying side effects of pregnancy for both men and women. It has been quite entertaining. Here is jake trying to find a justification for his sympathy weight... :-)
