Quick Update...

I just wanted to post an update before I start getting complaints...

I had a super relaxing weekend, decided to stay in Miahuatlán and sleep and eat and watch movies... It was a great weekend, I realized I really needed sleep after the past week or two, lots of parties, preparing tests, preparing STUDENTS for the tests, then grading finals...

So no good pictures or stories from the weekend. This week is my last week at work, and we found out yesterday that our boss is encouraging us to take Friday off (without pay, but still!)... Not sure exactly why he's so keen on us taking the day off, might be because HE wants it off, and he feels more justified if we also request it off. Or maybe he's trying to save the department money, and it's a good time because there's nothing to do. We've been filling our days with card games (Euchre and Pitch), online games (Word Twist and Challenge Sudoku), excessive meals at the cafeteria (which works out just fine for Frijolito and I!), and walking laps around campus.

The bottom line is it looks like we'll all take Friday off, and head to the beach a day earlier than planned. Which is perfect for my last weekend in Mexico, I'll soak up as much sun as I can so I'm armed for the New England March weather that awaits me... (still NOT looking forward to the weather, but besides that, I'm getting excited to be back!)

Everything is going well, I'm eating well and sleeping okay (Frijolito is moving around more than ever, so I wake up numerous times during the night, trying to find a comfortable position). I feel good about my pregnancy, every time I get a glimpse of my growing belly or I feel "pregnant" all of a sudden (after not thinking about it for a few hours), it makes me very happy to think that there is actually a human being forming in there, growing like crazy, and that one day he'll finally be with me "on the outside." :)
