- I'm now 30 weeks pregnant. I haven't gained too much weight, but at this point I've decided not to keep track on my own anymore. We had an appointment with the doctor today and they took blood samples. They'll also be checking my TSH levels. Oh, and I drank the glucose drink this morning. It's like flat orange pop, and made me feel like I had just had 10 ounces of pure sugar (surprise). We've now moved to the phase of seeing the doctor every two weeks.
- We started child birth class last night. We'll go on Wednesday nights for a total of 5 weeks. There are 5 other couples in the class, and there wasn't a whole lot of interaction between folks last night. Four of the other couples all have the same doctor, which seems like it could be unique. The woman who led the class just talked the whole time other than when we introduced ourselves, and it was a little difficult to pay attention all the time. But it was helpful.
- This Sunday will be my first Sunday leading worship at the West Campus of Lawrence FUMC. I was freaking out a bit what with people being gone for the holiday weekend, but it looks like things will work out ok. Thanks to lots of folks, I have a list of people to call on to fill in if needed. It helps to have connections at COR, and that they're having a special service for the weekend so folks are available to help out! It's been nice this week to go to the office and interact with folks there.
- We have furniture set up in the nursery now. We just need to sort through all the clothes and equipment, and figure out where its all going to go.
We're all settled in the house (well, except for stuff for the baby). Kayla enjoys having a backyard and "talking" with other neighborhood dogs. She mostly lays on our bed or in front of one of the sliding glass doors in the sun. Ah, the life of a suburban dog. I'll try to be better about updating, but I won't make any promises.
Shalom to you.

It sounds like you're settling in well in your new home and churches.
Glad to hear everything is going smooth and progressing well with baby Clinger.
Well continue to the 3 of you in our prayers.

Hi Heather,
I wish I could be there to hear your choir this morning! I'm sure all will go well.
Glad to hear you're feeling well as you get closer to your due date. Doesn't sound like the first childbirth class was much of a success - maybe things will improve this week. You could always invite one or more of the other couples out for coffee and try to bond that way. Both of you are so talented in connecting with others, so take the reins and do what you do best!
Love to all three of you - even Kayla. What happened to the barky, jumpy dog? Guess she's not a puppy anymore. Maybe she'd like to interact with our new hamster, Seymour. Cheyenne is having sibling issues with another pet in the house!!!!!
Love,
Diane
