Good-bye Second Tri!!

Can I get a woot woot?? It is a very exciting Memorial Day in the Wallace Household as our little man has officially entered the third trimester today! I actually had a moment (have them here and there...I know, I know, SHOCKING!) but it dawned on me that I have 12 weeks left in this pregnancy!! 12 more weeks until we get to meet Andrew! Andrew is now about 2 1/2 pounds and over 14 inches long. Still to date, no cravings but I will say I have noticed that he gives me a little kick and a little jab when I eat watermelon. It is my favorite fruit so perhaps he is taking on mommy's favorite foods already.

We had a very busy week last week between the start of the 8th grade end of the year activities and our school spring production! Andrew is finally starting to make the belly pop and it was by far a hit with my students and their families.

I am still told that I am so tiny for 7 months but I am happy that he is healthy and moving about. 

My team of teachers and I hosted an 8th grade luncheon for over 40 students. It was organized chaos but all in all, it was a blast. There was so much food, certainly a pregnant woman's heaven! We played a game of "Guess Who?" where every student had provided their baby pictures and students were to guess who was who. I was rather pleased with myself that I was able to guess most of the students. My families were pretty impressed too that I was able to identify so many of the students. But I suppose that after seeing these students for the last three years, you can't help but feel the mothering instincts of knowing your child. I guess I had an unfair advantage! :) Makes me look forward to watching Andrew grow through photos, photos that capture his growth and remind us of how little we once were.

The end of the year is rapidly approaching. Only 5 more on-site days and this mama-to-be will officially be on summer vacation! Let the countdown begin! Three more months little man...your countdown has begun too! Your family and friends are very eager to meet you!
