Weeks 25 and 26

Week 25
Week 26


We're getting bigger! Jackson is definitely growing and moving! I have now gained 17 pounds, which I think is pretty good considering I'm almost 7 months pregnant. The symptoms of pregnancy are starting to catch up with me too and I've had quite the monster leg cramps at night and aching back after a long day at work. Ryan and I are stilll trying to brainstorm a job that will allow me to spend more time with Jackson next year. Right now I'm working 10-12 hour days and every weekend and bringing tons of work home, which is definitely NOT going to work when I have a baby waiting to spend time with me! If you have any ideas or suggestions for more mommy-friendly jobs please let me know! Unfortunately, I do have to work otherwise I would stay home in an instant!

I know the feeling, I knew when I had my family I couldn't continue teaching either, hence why I left. I am now working at an airplane repair station working in accounting and dealing with a little of HR. I only work four days a week, 8 hour days, with full benefits. A job is out there, I recommend steering toward office work but that's just what has worked out for me.
I still miss teaching tremendously but my family comes first and I couldn't imagine teaching the way I do and being a mom to young children at the same time. Good luck brainstorming! Good luck with the rest of the pregnancy! You look so beautiful!

Thanks so much Kristi! I have a list going of jobs that I could possibly do and going back to work for my dad is looking more and more like the way to go! Good luck with your pregnancy too!
