I am almost 11 weeks now... woohoo! I'm developing a nice, round baby bump that my kids at school are now pointing out... yay for clothes not fitting! :( Btw, why didn't anyone tell me how hard it is to find maternity clothes that fit a petite frame?? You thought finding a pair of jeans when you're NOT pregnant was hard - try buying for a ski trip in March! Ha! Pregnancy benefit #2? Oh yes, RAGING hormones. Just step off. Step off or that baby is gonna rip through my stomach and tear your face apart. Kinda like in Alien. LOL. Sob... Grr! :)
I'm ready for the stress to be over. Stress, you ask? Yeah. School. UIL TOMORROW. Although, I have to admit I'm pretty relaxed about it this year. Not sure if that's a good thing or bad... Feeling good though that I've beat that music into those poor kids heads all for some meaningless, pridefully earned trophy... all when I'm trying to teach them that winning "isn't everything." Actually, the only part I really loathe is walking into that room with your scores projected on the screen for all to see. It's just shouting "Go ahead, judge me!" I say we do pretty well for having HALF of the rehearsal time as everyone else. I see my kids every OTHER day... so when TAKS shows it's nasty head or a field trip takes half my group away or spring break relieves us for a week, I might not see my kids for up to 10 days at a time!! Sorry, that's just the "venting before UIL in GCISD" game we play. I am excited though. I feel like the kids are ready... now just to have the perfect performance in a foreign school at an awkward time! Here's hoping! :)
Did I mention yay for Good Friday off??? :) :) :)

Us + Baby = 3!
Matt and I just celebrated our 6 month anniversary! It's crazy to think how fast that time flew! We didn't do anything really special - just curled up and watched a movie. Matt brought me flowers though - I love getting flowers! Our biggest news lately is that we are expecting a baby in October!
We could see the little heart fluttering and then they turned up the monitor - wow - a heartbeat! We know so many couples that struggle to get pregnant and we are considering our little surprise to be a complete blessing. People ask us what we want (boy vs. girl) and I really don't mind either way as long as it's healthy! We do kinda want a boy - I've already found the perfect decor - but healthy trumps gender any day. Although, if we have a boy we cannot decide on a name. A girl name? Done. Piper Grey Zimmermann. But a boy? We've tossed names up like Gabriel, Scott, Wesley... but nothing's sticking. I guess we have a few months to decided, but we'll take suggestions! I am so excited that our little one is going to have 6 fabulous aunts, 2 uncles (so far!) and terrific grandparents to boot. I love that we're starting the big family and can't wait til he or she has cousins to play with... (hint, hint...). :)
