Our First Entry

2/20/2008

Will: Last night, we went to our first "Baby Class" held at the Women's Hospital's Education Center. Needless to say, it was a little too "personal" for me, with group exercises, videos and cheesy breathing exercises.

Andrea, on the other hand, seemed to enjoy it, which is the important thing.

I'll have to miss the next one (held every Tuesday for 5 weeks), as I'll be in Scottsdale, AZ.; however, Andrea has been advised that she will still go.

Andrea: The class last night went alright. We were a bit nervous about how "interactive" the class would be but it ended up being fairly low-key. We survived the breathing exercise and are now FULLY aware what will likely happen when Olivia arrives.

I am 30 1/2 weeks along (only 9 1/2 weeks left till her arrival, if she decides to make an on time entrance). She is already very active (she must take after Will). She kicks and moves around all the time. I swear I am getting bigger by the day. I am going to try and have Will take a picture tomorrow so we can post a recent photo.

The girls (Maddy and Allie) at times seem to be a bit more interested in me but that could be because I feed them....not because I am pregnant. Their reaction to our new arrival will be interesting. They say as the baby develops they can hear noises and will get used to common sounds, so I am hoping that Maddy's greetings of howling at people will be something that she is already used to, and not something that makes her cry. It is impossible to keep Maddy quiet, she loves to talk

I guess this is a pretty good first post. We are looking forward to keeping everyone updated through our blog!
