I survived!!!

Well, I survived my first week of school! I'm only smiling in the pics because it is a long holiday weekend. Here I am at 36 weeks after 1 full week with 18 active 7 year olds. If you look at the bottom pic you can see my swollen legs and ankles. Not a pretty sight. This was after about an hour of having my feet elevated too. I had my 36 week check up Thursday and things looked good. Her heartbeat was a healthy 150 and she is officially turned head down and moving down further as we speak. My blood pressure was good and I had a normal protein count. The only bad thing was my legs and feet. My Dr. thought the 3 pounds I had gained in 2 weeks was all in my legs. She said to try to stay off my feet as much as possible this weekend. I start going weekly now and will have the full exams to see exactly how things are going. Grace has been VERY active lately, sometimes going strong for a full 2-3 hours. Kelly talks to her to try and get her to calm down! I am trying to do the best I can at school. I never imagined it would be this difficult. Most people take off work when they are 8 1/2- 9 mths pregnant but not me, I go back to work! I'm staying calm considering that we are down to weeks now. Almost there!!!
