I wish I had suspenders on my underwear...



I know, that really has nothing to do with this picture but I just wanted to put it up because I liked it and I rarely say that about pictures. This is from when we were staying at the Benbow Inn. We were kinda bored. I just kicked his bootie in cribbage and he was trying to distract me from gloating...


I have completely forgotten what it feels like to have clothes that actually stay up. For some reason all of these crappy maternity clothes, as comfy as they are, fall down constantly. It sucks. I will be lecturing in front of class and I will be shimmying to try and keep anything from moving but as soon as I sit down at my desk all is lost. I am tired of it. I think it's because my hips are disappearing.

We had a dr appt yesterday and everything is right on track. Baby's heartbeat is healthy, I'm right on track with my lovely weight gain and I have all of the typical aches and pains.


How could you not love this face?



Tomorrow Mike and I are leaving with 9 kids for the annual Bay Area field trip. Time to prepare myself for endless amounts of energy, a little drama and wacky music...I used to think that I listened to 'different' music but it is NOTHING compared to this new stuff! It should be interesting, a little bit of everything even some speed metal thrown in. Really looking forward to that! I have a feeling this is going to be a fun one though, maybe the best yet. I have a great group this year, only one whiner but he's harmless and no bitchy girls! I like these kids more than any kids that I have ever taken before so that helps., this will also help me be a lot less bitchy which we all know is a very good thing! We are taking a whole extra day so I think I may be more relaxed because that gives us more time between appointments. I will try and post pictures as we go.

Talk to ya'll when we get back!

Still 27 weeks and 3 days.....

Just wanted to post 2 cool pictures from tonight.
We had a fun time at Hank and Anna's.
Happy Birthday Bob!

27 weeks and 3 days...........

So, we are almost there. It seems like time is going really slow. I am really looking forward to when I get to leave work. I will miss about half of my students terribly but the other half...well, lets just say, we need a break.
I just wanted to post a few videos. One of Jerky. I know that some of you that read this don't like him or cats in general, which I can't really understand, but you don't have to watch it. He just makes us laugh all of the time. He's not mean, he's not gross, he's not anything but just one cool cat.

The others are in order and are from our trip to see Van Morrison. He was awesome. We have a video from the concert but don't blink and listen close!












So there you have it. I will post more pictures of my growing belly soon. It is hard to keep up on this thing but I am trying.
We were given an antique white bassinet by Paulette's mom (Paulette is my boss' assistant and my hero in the HROP office). We stopped by the office on Thursday and she gave me a blanket that she made herself. Then on Saturday, we met her at her mom's house to pick up the bassinet and her mom made us a blanket too! I can hardly believe the generosity of this family, I am blown away. This is on top of that whole set she gave us a few months ago for the nursery. Amazing.
So, that's all for now. I will keep you updated!
Later Taters.
