New Doctor

I had a great appointment this morning with Margi, a certified nurse midwife in Rhinebeck. She’s very friendly and personable, and made me feel comfortable from the moment she walked in the room – plus the birth center she works with is supposed to be one of the best in the area and will give us a lot of control over how that day goes (more than a hospital). It’s a bit of a drive from our house (35 minutes), but totally worth it, so we’ve officially found our doctor for the big day! I got to hear the heartbeat for the first time, which was so exciting it made me laugh. Baby’s heart is still beating away at 168 beats per minute, but Margi says that doesn’t say anything about whether it’ll be a boy or a girl. I guess some old wive’s tales really are just tales…

Chris and I are going back on the 17th for a sonogram (and we’ve been told that the baby will actually look like a person then), so stay tuned for pictures!

It's that time again... Girl Scout cookies! And this year we have two selling. Help them meet their cookies sales goals by ordering online. 

If you live nearby, choose girl delivery and help get cookie boxes out of our garage... Otherwise we're going to be giving them Girl Scout  Cookies for birthday and Christmas presents all year.

Bus stop selfie with Nora. This week she moved from her tiny charter school with only 18 eighth graders to the public middle school with over 200. And now she rides the bus.

The charter school wasn't challenging her enough, has a huge percentage of students who are disruptive in the classroom, and has been having trouble keeping teachers. Last year she loved it. But this year it was one thing after another, so right before Thanksgiving she and I went to go tour our neighborhood  middle school, and she immediately wanted to make the switch.

We've never had a kid in public school and I was nervous about how the transition would go from such a small school to a big one, but so far she's loving it and is glad she decided to move schools. It helps that she knows kids there already from her dance team. Hopefully she'll still be happy when she starts getting homework. Coming from a no homework school that may be a shock to us all.

Halloween 2022. Two witches, a murderous cat, and a creepy Victorian doll. 

Zara's costume was my favorite this year - Nora did her makeup and she wore my flower girl dress from my mom and step-dad's wedding. She might have worn it better. ๐Ÿ˜‚
