One More Day!!!

That's it! That's all I have left of the school year! Yay!! I know that some of you reading this will have more than that, so I'm sorry for bragging, but I'm so glad! I am done for the year and so are the students. Now all that is left to do is pack up my room and bring home the things that are mine and get ready for this baby!! My summer will be spent relaxing, reading, and getting myself ready for the baby!

It's hard to believe that I have just over 12 weeks left until the baby is due. I am getting more excited each week as it passes! I am officially into the third trimester! Crazy!

This weekend is Memorial Day weekend and as always my family will be having the freeze off. Blaine and I were trying to think up ice cream ideas and so far we are coming up empty. I am looking for something yummy and different. Any ideas from anyone out there? We will also be celebrating the Indy 500 as always with the peanut cars I hope. I can't wait to see everyone and get the chance to hang out with the fam and relax. My summer will be starting with the perfect weekend hopefully!

I will also be thinking of a friend this weekend however. She lost her father last night and I am very sad for her. It was a welcome thing in some ways, but I can't imagine what she and her family are going through. I have been doing the best I can to keep things going the way she would want them to go at school and I'm hoping that she won't be too disappointed. At the end of the day, I think she'd be ok with things, but I still worry that I will be letting her down. 

I hope you are all doing well and that you have a fantastic weekend! Please remember the reason for the holiday as well when you are celebrating and think about those that we have lost and the families that have lost them. I am soo grateful to have Blaine here and I think about the families in the 38th that aren't that lucky. Makes me appreciate everything that has happened this year for Blaine and I and the things that are hopefully still coming.

To all the mom's out there....

Just stopping by to wish all the mother's out there a very HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!   The world and I appreciate all that you do, and have done! I think I am truly beginning to grasp all that it takes to be a mom and my munchkin isn't even here yet!!


Happy Mother's Day!!!

Moving and Grooving

I'm back! And the baby is getting quite the workout as I write this. The further along I get the more I notice that there is a lot going on down there.  This little "monster" as Amy used to call it is beating from the inside and busting my routine. I can't believe how often I feel the movements. Blaine got to feel the baby for the first time a couple weeks ago. It was pretty cool. I still find it odd that there is a human being inside me! Crazy!

I have been feeling alright for the past few weeks. The eyes have cleared up, the cold is gone, allergies aren't too bad. But then again I have been to the chiropractor 3 times in the past week. Turns out I had locked up some joints in my lower back and had to get them straightened out multiple times before they are finally feeling better.  It was nerve wracking to go get my back worked on while pregnant, but I feel much better today. 

Blaine and I got a start on the baby's room last weekend. So far we have everything cleaned out and some furniture put up in the room. Time to move on to the decorating!! I still can't figure out how to do that, but I'm trying to find some good ideas. Anyone? We are also on the hunt for a pediatrician though I'm not sure how that is supposed to work either. Anyone know someone good? bad? suggestions? This one seems like one of the biggest dilemas so far.

I have started the countdown for the end of school!! I am down to 17 days! I can't wait! I am ready to sleep in, relax, and put my feet up. We'll see how that works for the beginning of the summer.

Blaine says nothing new is going on for him to share.....I can't really think of much either. Hope you are all doing well! Take care and enjoy the sunshine!
