30 weeks

Yeah, I'm getting big.  This is a picture of a VERY tired pregnant lady at the end of day, but this is about how big I feel all of the time.  (excuse the wrinkled shirt, I actually had another shirt on, but I had worn it in a previous weekly picture, so I threw this one on without looking at it closely) I got a haircut this past weekend, but you will have to take my word for it until next week, when you hopefully get a hair-down picture. 

Really my only complaint other than being exhausted from a busy work schedule, is that my back hurts all of the time.  I am willing to take any advice on relieving back pain.  I told Michael the other night I'm starting to think I made need an epidural for the back pain, forget the contractions! 

I can't believe I'm in the 30's (for weeks)!  Hopefully less than 10 weeks to go.  I go to the doctor Thursday (Valentine's Day).  I don't expect anything exciting, but I guess you never know. 

Also, we were supposed to take maternity pictures this past weekend... but it decided to downpour!  We have rescheduled for this Saturday, of course the weather calls for snow!  Hopefully we can get them in before I get too big!!

Funny school story:
Student 1: Mrs. Hassler, when is TCAP (the state test)
Me: At the very end of April
Student 1: Oh, so after the baby?
Me: Yes, after the baby is due
Student 2: So, you'll be back?
Me: No, he will only be about a week old.
Student 2: Why can't you just put him in the daycare?

Oh silly kids.  I do feel bad that I am abandoning them, but I feel good about my maternity sub and I know it will be a fairly smooth transition.  If the baby hasn't come by the first day of TCAP though, I'll probably have to go up to the school to wish them luck!
