We are in Franklin for the last Christmas before the arrival of Samuel Alan (what we have decided to name our baby boy)! Sam is now 29 weeks and growing bigger everyday. He is moving a lot and his kicks are getting stronger. (I keep telling Alan that he is practicing the can-can; Alan is convinced he is doing breaststroke.)I (Jessie) am still feeling great for the most part, but I don't have as much energy as I did 2nd trimester. I have heard that women at this stage have a hard time sleeping; I sleep fine except for the occasional 2:00 a.m. snack. A couple of weeks ago strangers started to notice my belly and make comments (which I am loving!). However I still have not had the stranger at Wal-Mart grab my belly. I'll let you know when that happens. :)
Alan and I have had two of 12 natural childbirthing classes. I keep telling Alan I was not aware of the the nightly massages he is required to give me as part of our homework. :)
Merry Christmas Everyone!
love,
Jessie and Alan
