I'm 28 weeks along, meaning we've made it to the home stretch. 3rd trimester. When it all gets real. I'm bigger, less graceful, things hurt, and the kid is as active as ever but now so big I feel him more. It's not at all bad though, he hasn't yet located my ribs or any other painful location to kick and punch. I foresee a little nerd, one who just doesn't get the point of hitting hard things with his fists and feet. He's a gentle soul. Or his sense of direction is as amazing as mine, and he just can't find his way around in there....
In other news, this is my last week of German classes until mid-January. I'm ready for a break. 2 months of intensive German language and culture lessons, coupled with sitting in those school chairs for 4 hrs...my back could use a break as much as my mind.
We are headed to an evening with friends tonight, I have brunch and shopping with another friend later this week, and this weekend we're headed to souther Germany to visit other friends. It's an exciting, friend-filled week and I will be so happy to have nothing to do next week!
