Muscle Release

Yes, I said muscle release. All the sudden the abdominal muscles just gave way. This is the first week anyone has actually asked me when I am due without my saying I am pregnant. Big, big, change and I mean big. Little slugger sure is active. I think he might be a sports fan as sometimes it feels like he is doing the "wave" in my belly. I like to watch my belly move as he kicks and punches and resituates himself. Rachel grows impatient watching although at times when she has sat on my lap or we have snuggled she has felt him kicking her back and says it feels funny. Sleeping is uncomfortable most of the time unless I get into the right position and that is never an easy task.

I go for my 7 month check-up next Tuesday the 11.

I have been enjoying my water aerobics classes. I try to go 3 to 4 times a week. The teachers are great. It always makes me feel better although I do get very tired and usually come home and sleep.

Tonight Rachel has a girl scout sleep over and tomorrow a birthday party. Then next Friday she starts basketball practice. She got her report this week and got all A's. She is doing very well. She got a prize for Accelerated Reader and enjoys doing her sunshine Math.
