Pics from the Week

This is Olivia practicing for her first show and tell tomorrow...what a disaster waiting to happen! Her teacher pulled me aside Thursday and asked that we work on her shyness. Anyone who has any pointers on that, let me know. She is involved in tons of activities and doesn't seem shy around people that she knows. I think its just going to take a while for her to get accustomed to this environment, plus I think there are a few dominant personalities in her class. Anyway, show and tell starts tomorrow and the theme for the week is Oceans. I was pretty proud of her when I told her the theme and asked if she had any ideas what she would like to take and she got her Splash the Pelican stuffed animal from the baseball game we went to when we were at the beach!
Holy Giant Belly! I know. There really are no words for how ridiculous that is. I've already started getting those looks from strangers when I tell them I'm still five weeks away...you know, the look that says, "What?! Are you joking?"
And finally...yay! Push present day! My sweet husband decided that since we are a month away from the due date he would give me a sweet little something today! I was so surprised and so happy! When I had Olivia, I asked him not to buy me anything because I couldn't decide what I wanted. Fast forward two years and I decided I wanted a pink or blue band for each child with their names and birthdays engraved on the inside. So today, I got both of them! I just hope my ridiculous fingers don't get any fatter before this baby comes so I can keep wearing them! I know the picture isn't that good, and I know I need a manicure!

Girl, you look good. All baby. Love the ring. I'm pretty sure I won't be getting a push present this time around considering the double house payments - haha! Miss you!
