And my students are sympathetic when they come in there 7th period and say, "Mrs. Stover, you've been in here ALL day?" Some of my students have been really cute about getting excited when I'm growing or when I wear something that particularly accentuates my belly. Some of the girls pat my belly as they walk into class and say "Hey mama" or "Hello baby." I had a boy who stayed for detention a couple days ago ask me all kinds of questions like, was I excited, was I nervous, was my husband gonna be in the delivery room with me, was I afraid of the pain? He even warned me, "I heard that part sucks pretty bad."
Yesterday while I was teaching Romeo and Juliet, one student kept talking to the girl next to her. So I went over and just put my arm on her shoulder to get her attention while I continued to talk. She stopped talking and laid her head on my belly. "Uh, Yesenia, are you comfortable?" "Yes. I just want to feel her move." "Okay, well, like I was saying, Romeo and Juliet..."
Here I am at 6 months
I did these on Photo Booth. Notice the crib in the background. It's the one Brandon used to sleep in. His parents came over and set it up last week. Over Spring Break we're going to sew the baby bedding and get the nursery set up. I'm so excited for that!
Jenny and I took this picture at church Sunday. She is about 4 months along. (Is that right Jenny?) Our kids will be second cousins.
This is the fabric we're going to use for the baby bedding.
And this I ordered online to do some applique on pillows for the guest bed.
I'm headed out of town tomorrow with some other teachers for a Pre-AP English training. I'm very much looking forward to getting out of my hot classroom, getting a break from school, eating out, and hopefully stopping by a Gap Maternity while we're there.
