Third Tri-mester!

According to several different websites, I am in my third tri-mester!  We'll see what the doctor says when I see him this Friday.  I can't believe it though!  It's gone so slow and fast at the same time.  But I'm about 2/3 of the way done and can't wait to see this cute baby girl!  Apparently at 27 weeks my baby is around 2 pounds, and is about the size of a head of cauliflower?  Weird.  She moves a lot more, but she still seems like she's a pretty chill baby, at least by the amount of movement I feel.  She could be tricking me and turn out to be a wild child, you never know!  It's been cool though because I can see the movements a lot more obviously now.  I even took a snap chat of me balancing a remote control on my tummy.  You can see it moving from me breathing, then all of a sudden, a little jolt!  That's the baby kicking or punching, or whatever.  I was able to send it to Jevan, and it was the first time he really saw it move.  It was pretty cool.  I hope I'll catch it on video again, and then I'll post it on here.

27 Weeks today on May 27th!  I got really sunburned on our field trip today, so I had to wear something that covered it up.

26 Weeks!

In general, this is what I look like from a front view.  I'm pretty happy I'm only bigger in my belly really.
The last week and a half of school has been crazy!  We went to Fat Cats all day for a field trip last week to reward the students that graduated from the DARE program.  It was awesome!  We could mini golf, bowl, and watch movies in the theatre for free!  Then the police force made us grilled hotdogs.  My favorite part though was the fact that for some reason they had two camels there!!!  It was so crazy and random.  I decided it would be worth the germs to touch one, and I even got proof that I did it!

Here I am touching the camel!
Today we went on a walking field trip to see the Planetarium at BYU-Idaho, and then see a chemistry demonstration.  The chemistry demonstration was the coolest part.  We saw what happens to a racquetball when it sits in liquid nitrogen for 15 min.  Breaks apart and sounds just like glass!  Awesome!  We also some some hydrogen balloons burst into flame.  Just some of the reasons why I love being a teacher.  :)  Sadly, and happily, only 1 1/2 more days!  Then I'll get to enjoy the hot weather of Saint George, my wonderful husband, and getting ready for my beautiful baby girl in August!  Can't wait!

Last Month of Teaching

I can't believe it's already May!  I feel like it was just yesterday that I started my first day of teaching 5th grade, and in just 2 1/2 short weeks I will be done with my first year.  I'm proud to say I never missed a day! It's been an amazing experience.  It started out pretty tough, but doesn't every job take a while to get used to?  I am so grateful I was able to be a teacher to 90 amazing kids and have this great experience.  I'll miss them, the teaching, and my amazing co-workers, but I am so excited to get to be a mom!  I couldn't ask for anything more.

25 Weeks today and loving it!

24 Weeks last week!
I have to resort to taking my own pictures for a while because Jevan took a last minute internship in St. George!  It's pretty crazy how we live our lives.  Always doing things on the spur of the moment.  We had been planning for him to do an internship with his dad's company in the Fall, but while we were at his nephew Taft's baby blessing we talked to his dad and found out he could do his internship in the summer.  We decided Jev needed a break from Rexburg, and it would be better for me if I could have a few months with a doctor in St. George before the baby was born there instead of just a few weeks like we originally planned.  The only bummer is that I have to stay in Rexburg the whole month of May without my sweetheart.  At least I have work to keep me busy.  I can't wait to see him in a few weeks!

Here is cute Taft on his blessing day.  Too bad he didn't have his awesome Tux on anymore.
