Closing in on the end of 20 weeks

Well, someone finally asked, someone who didn't know. It felt weird.
"Are you pregnant?"
It's a new teacher who started working a few weeks ago (took the place of a poor guy who just didn't or couldn't deal with teaching)
I was so surprised it took a minute to register.  "Uh, yeah!"
She went on to explain that she saw me from the side yesterday and had asked another teacher if I was, who said she thought so.
So I guess I ain't as "regular" sized as I thought! Ha! The laff's on me. :)
*************
Does anyone have any maternity clothes I can buy or borrow? I'll pay for shipping! I'm running out of options for my winter weathery stuff and I'm rapidly figuring out that, as a pregnant chick, I can't pull an outfit together at all.
**************
Only five more days til this baby is discovered to be a he or a she.
"I hope your baby isn't one of those he/she's."---student name Brandon
"Thanks.  I hope that doesn't happen either."--me
***************
OH MY GOSH! Chris just walked by and I was showing him the picture of the side shot up there and the baby started kicking/moving and I put my hand on my stomach and felt it on the OUTSIDE now. So, after squealing, I had Chris see if he could feel it too. He did. Amazing.  Chris goes, "Well isn't that COOL???"
**********
Two cool things happened today! Yay!

last next


This time next week we can start actively thinking about the "theme" of the nursery! Mom said her theme for her two girls was "PINK" ;)
I like how this girl's ensemble would go with the house...
Somehow, the cowboy motif makes me laff. I like it.  Picture a big rocking "cowboy horse" in the room too. Kinda redneck, but I like the idea.
NOW do you see why I have to pee so much????
This is 20 weeks.
PS What did you do last week? I made some sweat glands for a human! Pretty cool! (no pun intended)
Dragonflies are cool...
We can dream, can't we?
