This week we've started having gifts arrive from some of our friends. We are already so blessed, thank you all so much! One of my former students who is now a 5th grader came to my room the other day and said, "Mrs. Giles what are you having?" I told her and a boy and she said, "Okay, I'll tell my mom." I came into my classroom and found a sack on my desk with some baby slippers and a stuffed rabbit. There was a note that said: Mrs. Giles you were my best teacher ever! I hope your baby has a great first birthday. It was super sweet.
We also worked on Maddox's room a little bit. I'm ready for it to all be put together though. I loved how this wall turned out!
Maddox has been super busy moving all over the place. I feel like he is already about 12 pounds and NEVER sleeps. Let's pray this isn't true! Every time I see this commercial I'm convinced that this is how big Maddox actually is.

We spent all day Saturday at our last (thank goodness) class at the hospital. This class was over child birth and everything that it entails. We even practiced the hee hee hoo. I didn't realize that people actually did that, I just thought it was for the movies. The class was pretty informative but I'm sure I won't remember any of the information once labor actually starts, nor am I sure anyone but the doctor needs to know what to do.
We're almost at week 34 and honestly I don't remember much of week 32 but here's the gist....we went to another class at the hospital. This class was over infant safety so we learned baby CPR and some other helpful tips. We also had another doctor's appointment to hear Maddox's heartbeat. Everything looked and sounded good. The doctor said that if it came down to it she wouldn't let me go past December 12th so we can expect a baby by then!
I can't believe we're at 31 weeks! It doesn't seem like that long ago we were finding out that we were pregnant.
Another couple weeks have gotten away from me without blogging. We've been crazy busy and the next few weeks only look just as busy!
Maddox got to attend his third wedding in week 30. I've been experiencing quite a bit of heartburn and indigestion. It's really bad at night and I've lost a few hours of sleep from this already. I'm hoping that it'll get better soon. There's nothing in particular that seems to trigger it other than just food itself...and I'm not at all willing to not eat! I enjoy food WAY too much. I got the results back from my glucose test and they came back good. However, my blood tests showed that I am anemic. My doctor put me on an iron supplement to help. Before that I noticed I was getting out of breath really easily and super tired. Since starting the supplement both of these things have gotten better.
For week 31 Maddox got to go visit Tyler and Kendall for the second time in Lubbock. The last time I was there I was telling Tyler I was pregnant. Maddox got his first Texas Tech apparel and a few other outfits on this trip!
