It's been awhile...

Let's see...
I have a new ultrasound 3D picture to post. My friend runs a machine at a different doctor's office and told me I could come in anytime. Cool! So I went in again last week and got this one and then she will do the 3D on week 29. She said that's the best time for pictures... Everything is going well though. I've got me a little belly (not sure how I feel about taking pictures of that and posting them) and need to get some new clothes.
Other than that, Brian and I had a fun time up at 5th Grade camp (Clear Creek) with my students. We were snowed in, but only for a few hours. It was way fun - a great way to go out.
AND I got hired for a new job next year. Sad to think about not teaching, but I think this job will allow me to be a better mom. Only 4 days a week at the district coaching brand new 5th and 6th grade teachers. Positives: no grading, planning, worrying, cleaning a messy classroom, etc. This job will allow me to come and go and be done and not worry about anything. Less expected. I guess that's my new motto. :) Makes me sound lazy, huh?

cute baby. cuter when he (did i remember correctly that you are having a boy) is born. get some maternity clothes...will make you feel SO much better. Yeah! for your new job. You were be so great at that. Wish I was a new 5th/6th grade teacher. You don't sound lazy, you sound like a mama who has to work, but it finding something less stressful for you and your boy. Good work!

I got teary eyed looking at that new ultrasound. I can't wait for him to get here! I already have a pile (a rather large pile!) of stuff for Baby Boy Robinson. How's the name selection going?

That picture is so crazy! I'm not sure I've seen the 3-D pics before...unbelievable! Cool, though! Also, new job? I'm so excited for you. However, Manila will miss you so much. I've seen you in action and you are quite an amazing teacher. That sounds like a great part-time job, though! And Lazy? I don't think so. It's called being in the teacher world, but not of it :)! Been there, done that, loved loved loved the less time, less work, and less stress! Good for you!

I love the picture of your cute baby and snuggled up cute. I do want to see some prego pictures-- just email them to me. You don't have to blog them. Congrats on the job. You are going to be SO good at that. This will be great for you and your little guy. I was actually quite sad over Valentine's when I realized that I wasn't at Clear Creek singing, "If I was not at Clear Creek.." I miss you! Are you going to start filling up your garage with all of your classroom books and supplies?

I vote yes on the belly pictures! I bet you look darling! And be sure to model some of your new maternity clothes while you are at it!

Congrats on the new job and the upcoming arrival. Way better to be mommy when you can minimize the stress for yourself. Can't wait to see pictures of your growing belly...we've all been there, so don't be bashful and just blog them!

Those 3-D ultrasounds are so cool!

I don't think I've talked to Ann for like 8 years but I heard she opened a boutique in Show Low similar to the Blossom Salon/Boutique in downtown Mesa.

Cute picture, I know he looks like a fuzzy alien right now, but hopefully he won't when he comes out :) Good for getting a new job, But many 5th graders won't know what a great teacher they are missing! Good Luck!

That is an awesome picture! I never got a 3-D one before. I am so excited for you guys. Little boys are so fun! June is coming quick. Let me know if you are having a shower here in Utah (I'm still here in W.Jordan).

Congrats on the new job! It sounds great for a new mom. I'm jealous you get the 3d u/s for free! I've never done that but I think it's really neat!

Um, I'll email you about the Baby class & give you the DL about the situation. Cool?
