Visiting is cool

Beth is here and it is so cool to actually see her!
We talk every week in some form or fashion but to be able to sit and talk = so cool.

Yesterday was my last day of official preschool until the fall and I am sad.
So going to miss my kids I tried not to cry but couldn't do it.
I am a wuss.

Getting anxious about the baby and wish she would come sooner than later.
Maybe...

Also was lucky enough to visit with my Grandpa and his new wife Nell.
So nice to see them and hang out, only thing that could have been better.
More time...

And then there were 4

More weeks until the baby.
We have collectively made alot of progress getting things ready. Which is good because she is going to be here before we know it.
Then I will spend my summer taking care of my little one and taking classes to get my lead certificate so I am all set to have my own classroom in the fall.
I am excited about everything that is going to be happening but also a little stressed the last several months at work have been difficult. I really enjoy my job and hope everything can get resolved so we can all have a successful new year.
Beth is back in the Midwest and that is pretty exciting for me to know she is literally a short car ride away.
My friend Sarah is moving in a few weeks and I am already feeling the pain. We talk everyday and see each other once a week. It's going to be hard, thankfully she is like Beth and I in that she works hard at keeping in touch with friends even if they live far away.
Today is my last Brewer game for awhile hope I will be able to fit in my seat!

Welcome to the world of can't sleep

So I have been up for an hour. Which wouldn't be so bad but I do have to work today and we are having a special celebration in class for Dads and Grandpas.
Kind of my own fault, eventhough I get killer heartburn from it Chris and I ordered pizza. It was beyond yummy but now I have heartburn. I have drank two glasses of milk but bonus right now at this stage in my baby growing I am a little lactose intolerant.
So now I am up, have hearburn and feel a little queasy.
Hee hee... it's all worth it though.
In a few weeks I will be up because someone is hungry not because I have heartburn. I am looking forward to the switch!

Baby Shower Day

Today is my first Baby Shower. I am a little nervous simply and this is so silly it has been a long time since I have seen any of my friends. So relatively few of them have seen my with my new belly.
Complete strangers yes.
Coworkers yes.
The Brewers yes. :)
My friends no.
It is not that I have taken to staying indoors but with a new baby coming I have become quite the homebody. Basically trying to get our home ready for her body!
All of our furniture is in and Chris and some of his friends are picking it up today. I am excited to fill dresser drawers with her things.
I am becoming increasingly ready for her to be here.
My feet have started to ache and my tummy keeps growing which in turn gives her little room to move which of course freaks me out.
I also get sleepy and grouchy a lot quicker now. My husband has been beyond patient. I think he feels bad watching me waddle here and there in an effort to get things done.
Being a procrastinator and pregnant do not go well!

Winding down...

It is crazy to think in a few weeks I will be on summer break and then we will have a new addition. Add to that a really good friend of mine is moving out of state a best friend is back for the summer and more family is moving away. Well, it just shows how chaotic life can be.
In all this chaos my Mom is coming to visit followed by my Dad. I can not express how excited I am to see them. I have not seen my Dad for well over a year. My Mom about as long... I love my family and it's hard only seeing them once a year.
Having a little one of our own I think is going to help both Chris and I deal with what sometimes feel like a lack of family around us.
7 weeks and counting!
