Coughing, quilting, and cooperating


"I wish nothing but the best for you..."

I've been obsessed with Adele's song "Someone Like You". So beautiful. I think about my son when I hear this song, even though it is about unrequited love. The lyric, "I wish nothing but the best for you", does fit how I feel for him though.

Anyways, the last week or so has been pretty uneventful. I have a persistent cough that is going on 3 weeks now. I finally caved and started taking antibiotics. My doctor said they were safe. I feel a little better, but still coughing some. Hopefully, it will go away soon. I had a little scare the day after I started taking them because he hardly kicked at all that day. He wasn't following his "usual" pattern of kicking within an hour or two of lunch. He got right back to kicking like crazy the next day, so I was relieved.

I gave up finishing my quilt for the spare guest bedroom. I'll finish that later. I want to get started on the baby quilt. Since the baby's room will have a Dr Seuss theme, that is the kind of fabric I bought for the quilt.
I can't wait to get started! Here is a picture of the spare bedroom quilt I started.
And this is a picture of the first, and only, quilt I have done. I made it for the master bedroom. My husband and I sleep with it every night. It is very warm! :)
In other news, my belly button is pretty much flat now. (What?!) That is the most shocking part of pregnancy for me so far. I thought I would be 30+ weeks when my belly button would go flat. Oh well.

Also, on Tuesday I have another ultrasound scheduled. Junior was moving so much before that they could not get good pictures of his heart. Hopefully, he will cooperate more this time. :) I am hoping I can get a full body picture to take home because I did not get one last time.

In less than 2 days, I will be 22 weeks! Yipee! Grow, baby, grow!

  1. Oh I'm so jealous of you feeling your baby kicking!

    Way to go on making a quilt! I want to do something special, too, but I don't know quite what yet. Hmm...

    Have you told your students yet?

  2. No. I mostly work with kindergartners. They haven't noticed yet. I should tell them soon though. I did tell some 4th graders I taught last year because they flat out asked me. LOL You'll feel baby kick soon and it is AMAZING.
