Yesterday a co-worker of mine was asked, "Is Mrs. Miles pregnant?" She responded sarcasticly "No, she just decided to gain a basketball size amount of weight" Ha! Ha! Today, I was asked "Mrs. Miles are you pregnant?" This was from a student that I had last year. What are these students thinking about how I look right now?

26 weeks

School has started and my routine of relaxing days are over. Even though I am looking forward to getting into the school routine and discovering what this year's class has in store for me, I am going to miss the time at home when I can relax. Oh well, another step to the arrival of our precious baby!

I am 26 weeks pregnant and feeling great! I can't believe how close I am to finishing the 2nd trimester and starting the final stretch. Baby Miles is an active baby especially when I am still for longer periods of time.

Everyone is trying to figure out what the baby is. Each has their own theory about determining it. My dad has so affectionately nicknamed baby Miles "who-ha". Thought it was the funniest name after hearing it on the radio. Of course, we are wishing for a strong healthy baby.

Well, until next time! Love you Baby Miles!!!

Summer is almost over

23 weeks pregnant

The past few weeks have been busy. We helped at Grace's VBS and then St. John's VBS every night for the past two weeks. It was a definite taste of what it will be like when I start teaching next week. I am looking forward to getting back into the routine of teaching and it also means that it is closer to when we get to meet our wonderful baby.

I started feeling Baby Miles the night of our 20 week appointment. I thought that I had felt the baby before then but that night I really knew for sure that that is what I was feeling. For the most part, I feel the baby move at night when I am finally still. Cody has even gotten to feel it so the kicks and pokes are stronger every day. I am enjoying every minute!

We are praying for a job for Cody. I just know that one of these days someone is going to see how awesome my husband is and beg him to come and work for them. Keep praying too!
