I told my students!

I decided to make Valentines a little more fun by telling my students that i'm having a baby! It was a lot of fun. I put together a scavenger hunt and gave them clues to find teachers that are at my school. In the teachers room there was a present. Before they could open the present they had to find the other half of a heart they were given. Another group had the other half. After they completed their heart they could open their presents. In one of the presents there was something to do with a baby, then in the other there was a treat or snack that had something to do with a baby. Then they had to guess that their teacher was pregnant! My first group was a group of boys and they couldn't figure it out. It was pretty funny! Eventually they all got it and were excited! They were full of questions. Some of the girls claimed to already know but who knows! I had fun telling them! One girl just couldn't wait to call her mom!! They are a fun group! Here are some picture of today!

Before it all began
First Group to finish:
They couldn't figure out why there was baby stuff. It took a few minutes
More Groups



These girls figured it out pretty fast




This little boy got a diaper.. It was on his head the rest of the time..


All of the stuff that they had to open.
What a fun day!
My room mom's were great and they had a few projects for my kids to do! I hope they all had fun. It defiantly sounded like that.

Once upon a time....

Once upon a time, there was two people who fell in love. They decided to get married and spend eternity with each other. Well, one year later they decided they couldn't wait any longer to start their family! They sent a message to their family stork saying they would like a baby in nine months. On the night that her sister delivered their little girl, the happy couple, Bryson and Mickelle found out that they would be coming back to the hospital in a short time however this time it would be to deliver their baby! They were so excited and tried to not tell anyone. Anywho the point of this post is not to tell a story but to announce that we are going to have a baby! We are so excited for this and it is feeling more real every day! Especially as my stomach gets bigger!

We made a card for our families for Christmas. Of course we had to make a baby bear! For those who don't know Bryson gave me a bear in ninth grade that I have saved then we made a Mickelle bear when we got engaged.
We went and heard the heartbeat last week and decided to schedule an ultra sound for fun. Our excuse was we wanted to make sure of the due date! August 12th is the due date! I will be out of my first trimester this week! So excited! Here is a blurry picture of one of the pictures they took for us. You can see it's profile really good.
