23 weeks, 1 day

Looks like we're a papaya for the entirety of month five. But if I had to guess, I would say that Piglet is a little on the big side. He sure can kick! My new favorite pastime is staring at my stomach during his active times to watch it bounce as he tries to kick a way out.  According to some sources, some of his favorite sounds are my voice and soft music. I should probably talk to him more. I sing to him in the car or if I'm home alone, and I think to him a lot, but I forget to actually speak those thoughts. Guess I need to talk to him, if I want him to know my voice.

I've had a pretty boring weekend. I didn't even do laundry or clean, just swept and did dishes. All I really feel like doing is being a bum, so I am.  As an update on my parents situation, they have decided to stay another year in Ohio. Mom will probably try to get a custodial job at the college. My heart hurts for Mom because she loved and was very good at the position she was in and it will be difficult to go to custodial from there.  Please pray that she will be able to find continued work at the college, and if it happens to be in custodial please pray for strength for her.  It's very physically demanding work. Me, I am bummed that they won't be moving to Texas but I didn't really think they would anyway and I really just wanted what was best for them.

So you can see the kicking now! Isn't that fun? Thanks for your prayers and concerns for me. I think your due date is going to be earlier than the end of May.
