I apologize for how long it’s been since my last update. It seems like we have had a lot going on lately. I am now 23 weeks along and I am feeling the baby move so much. You can’t really feel it from the outside, but he/she is very active! We had another doctor’s appointment this week and everything continues to go well. The baby’s heartbeat was 148 this time. I try not to look at the scale, but judging by my belly, the number is going up quite a bit!
We finally found an in-home daycare provider that we really like. She is right in our neighborhood so that really helps! I hope we continue to like her as we go along. Though I know it will be hard to leave Baby Bittner no matter where it is! We’ve also gone to a couple of baby classes lately. They have been very informative. We start our birth class next month, and I can’t wait!
The baby’s room is painted and coming together well. We also got our stroller and carseat so I would stop worrying about having them. I can’t believe a baby will be in them soon. I know I am ahead of the game, but that’s the kind of person I am!
We just got back from a little babymoon in Estes Park, Colorado. It will probably be our last trip without baby! We had a great time. It so majestic to see these huge mountains and drive through them. We took many pictures while we were there. Ed did a little hiking, but I refrained because it didn’t take much for me to start huffing and puffing. The only thing I have to complain about were the constant potty breaks for me. I think Ed would agree! We saw some wildlife while in the national park so that was wonderful. We saw marmots, chipmunks, elk, and moose. We didn’t see any black bears or mountain lions, but that is probably a good thing! I have included some pictures from our trip, but a picture can’t hold a candle to the real thing!

It’s August so summer is coming to a close! I am spending the next 2 weeks getting my classroom ready and preparing materials for the online course I am teaching. I wasn’t going to teach another one, but the money is hard to pass up. After this one, I will be taking a break until February or March. Luckily the online school is letting me take that time off. I went to school for a little while today and got to see some coworkers. Of course, I got to show off my baby bump! It’s hard to think about school when I really just want to relax, but that is life!
Well, everything has been going great, and I feel so blessed to have such supportive family and friends helping me out! Ed is also very helpful and loving. He talks to the baby quite a bit, too! Baby will know our voices for sure! We hope to see you all soon!
