I have done two dumb things recently (well, that I know of… who knows how many other dumb things I’ve done that I haven’t realized), and I will be blaming them on my pregnant brain, thankyouverymuch.
1. I made chicken taco meat for our small group on Monday. This wouldn’t have been dumb if I hadn’t left the spatula in the crock pot with the chicken all day long. Oops. Luckily it was a metal and silicone spatula, so no harm done.
2. I was the only one at school today (still packing up the room), so I needed to disarm the security system. After pushing a bunch of buttons in a panic, setting off the alarm (very loud!), then actually going down to the office to call the security company and let them know that I was the one who set off the alarm (they didn’t seem that concerned, nor did they ask for any verification that I was a teacher and supposed to be there… odd), I discovered the button clearly marked “OFF”. Nice one.
It’s going to be a fun four more months!
In other news, baby has been making its presence known with little kicks and flip flops for the past month or so, which is fun. So far caffeine and sugar seem to be its favorite things and I’m feeling like a bad mommy for giving it such things. I’ll get over it.
I’m also looking forward to finding out if our little it is a he or a she on July 14th! We’ll see if we can get some sort of pool started before then.

Tomorrow is the last day of school. It’s also my last day of work (though I may get on the sub list for next year until Baby Baker makes his/her debut). I’m thrilled to be staying home with the baby, but sad to be leaving my school. I feel like I’ve learned so much this year and could be so much better at teaching next year, but I won’t get to try. Sigh.
In other news, Baby has started moving! It feels like twinges, bubbles, and flutters, and I have to remind myself that it is OUR CHILD making those feelings! I’ll try to post a belly pic soon. I must be showing, since today someone asked me how many I was having (FYI, not a good thing to say to a pregnant woman!). Nice.

Today’s theme is softball. Jamie has a softball game today, and according to one source, the baby is the size of a softball.
(It varies from orange to apple to softball, depending on where you look.)
I had a doctor appointment (is it doctor appointment or doctor’s appointment? Discuss.) yesterday. All is well, from weight gain to heartbeat to water consumption. Kind of a boring appointment, actually. I guess I’d better get used to going in just say hi.
I went to school after my appointment and got to enjoy the talent show. The best part was a kid playing Summer Time Blues on the saxophone–I think I felt the baby move! We may have a little woodwind player on our hands!

I planned salmon for dinner, and Baby decided it needed to be salmon en croute. Seriously? Does this kid think we’re that fancy? Hate to burst your bubble, but that’s not normal fare around here, kiddo!
Off to thaw the puff pastry…
