Shim is a...

BOY!
Here are some pictures from our gender reveal party we had Sunday, January 4.  

My sister and I made the banner.  I think we did pretty well!


I made the cake, and what can I say?  At least it tasted good!  Zach really liked it! 

The food!

Shawn and Gwenda!  She and Shim are going to be girlfriend and boyfriend! ; )

Reading name suggestions!

Debating how to cut the cake!


Blue!!

My sweet, adorable husband/ baby daddy! : )  He's a funny guy!

Elizabeth, Myself, and Shawn!

Baby boy has a name (as long he looks like a  _______ ________ when he's born), but we are not telling it until then!  I told Zach if we found out, that we were definitely not telling the name.  He wholeheartedly agreed and we're both protecting it until the big day.  We call him by name at home most of the time, but sometimes still refer to him as Shim.  Stuck in the habit of it, I think! 
  So, all in all, it was a success and I got the hoopla I wanted!  Now to figure out what on earth we're going to do with a SON!  (That still sounds so weird to say!)

Family room re-do featuring.... my curtains! : )

For a while now, we've planned on finally finishing our family room.  That's right, it's kind of been unfinished for the entire time we've lived there.  It was painted and decorated, just no molding and the ceiling was hideous because we (and by we, I mean Zach) took down the drop ceiling the previous owners had put up.  So, anyway, I looked at curtains and didn't really find anything I liked, so I decided I was going to make my own.  Zach and I looked at Jo-Ann's a couple times and each time we looked I liked this fabric more and more.  It was the most expensive fabric I've ever bought, but in the end, it was sooooo worth it! (*Note- I bought the fabric in January before NSM! : )) Here we are at Mama Joyce's one day after church cutting the panels.  I think we were all nervous to cut it.  It was too costly to mess up! Fast forward a couple weeks because I didn't have time, was lazy, and also scared to sew on it, and I finally just delved in an...

Turns out...

Third grade is not bad at all! The kids are still pretty sweet and are so excited for me to be there and I am excited too! I think it will be fun to see all that they can do and have fun with them. Yesterday I received 5 notes on my desk about how excited that I was there and about how much fun we were going to have. I think they are right! Hopefully I get the hang of them quickly, because I start teaching Science (Mon and Wed), Social Studies(Tues and Thur), and PE (Fri) next week!

Bumpdate: 41 weeks!

How Far along: 41 weeks.   Baby's size: Size of a jack fruit!  Around 7.5 lbs. (I think he's going to be about 8 lbs and Zach's official guess is 9 lbs. 2 oz.  I hope he's wrong!) Weight loss/gain: 30 lbs. (So glad the weight gain is slowing down!) Sleep: I told Zach I no longer am even trying to keep track of how much I am getting up to go to the bathroom. Gender: B-O-Y Movement:  He has been back to his super active little self this week.  Best Moment of this week:  Getting to spend time at home together now that we're finished with the old house.  Also, the 3 day weekend!  We didn't sleep in, much, but we figure that's all about to end anyway! Looking Forward: Getting to meet our baby boy.  I think it will be a little weird, because I truly don't feel like I'm finished being pregnant yet.  But, alas, we pretty much have to follow Dr.'s orders. Food cravings: Still pineapple!  ...
