7 months and still going strong!


So as of today, Wednesday, April 1st I am officially 28 weeks! No, that's not an April Fool's joke! Just 9 more weeks, and my pregnancy will be considered full-term! I can't tell you all how wonderful Baby Sottong has treated me so far. Each day I thank him for treating mommy so well! After talking to so many of my friends who have children young and old, I know I'm lucky that I've actually been able to enjoy this experience. Indeed there is nothing better than feeling him move around which he does a lot especially at night. The other day Brad felt him moving and said how weird it would be to have that feeling in his belly. Perhaps, he's understanding more and more the beautiful gift of motherhood...and the fact that no man could handle it! I keep knocking on wood that Baby Sottong will continue spoiling me, but I have a feeling the warm weather is going to zap me here in a few weeks. At this point, I still feel great, have been able to exercise regularly, can still bend down to pick things up and tie my shoes and have managed to not forget too much. As I always say to Brad, "If it's not written on a post-it note, it's not going to happen." We are still in the process of finding the perfect name, so as of today, he still goes by Baby Sottong or Baby Boondong! Again, the name Boondong is a long story! We are so grateful for you, our family and friends, who continue to love on baby and us as we prepare for this journey. There is not a day that goes by that someone doesn't ask how I am doing or how baby is doing. It truly means so much! As we continue to get everything ready for his big arrival, we pray that God will continue to bless us and our little bundle of joy! Thanks again for sharing in our excitement!

  1. Teeda,
    It was so good to see you at Kim's wedding! You are truly a beautiful sight in all your pregnant glory!! (not sure if I mentioned it, but I am obsessed with the whole pregnancy/baby thing!) so I'm so glad you told me about your blog. I love that you are trying to think of a Thai name. I can't wait to hear what you guys decide on. Congratulations on this blessing!
