Hey, looky there… I had a baby

The newest little Penguin arrived almost a month ago now!

and in honor of her big brother (j-man) little miss will be called Roo on the blog :)

39 weeks and a pleasant surprise :)

I am 39 weeks pregnant today, which seems crazy in an odd sort of way, I’ve gone early with all my other babies, but so far show no signs of any type of labor with this little miss. J-man was born at 39w4d, M was 39w2d and Bug was 39w2d as well.

Ha, well looking at the dates that way makes me feel slightly better, maybe little miss will be here within the next day or two. The family says this would be a good week to give birth, J-man only has 1 game this week, and it’s tomorrow night!

Here is the belly at 39 weeks:



She’s definitely creeping lower.

I have a really wonderful friend who lives thousands of miles away from me, and she sent me something last week that made me excited, and very grateful to have a friend who is so very talented!





It’s a handmade Penguin Blanket for new baby girl, and it’s amazing. I adore handmade things, they are so special, and mean so much. I’ve already got is packed in the baby’s hospital bag, and I’m sure she will cherish just as much as I do!

Amanda also sent me this adorable burp cloths, which are snugged away in the diaper bag and in our kitchen for easy access! I really like this compared to the ones that we bought from Wal-Mart, and not just because they have Penguins

There was also diapers, a very lovely card and a special treat for each of the other three. Little notebooks with their first initial on them, and each had a stretchy bouncy ball. I would have a picture but they are carrying those things around like their lives depended on it. They really love those things! The notebooks I am going to put in little prize bags I’m making up for the kids, so that when we’re in the hospital they have something to do!

I cannot say Thank you enough to Amanda for the sweet and thoughtful gifts she sent to me and baby girl!

Wordless Wednesday

Baby girl, today at 38w3d

Class photo fail

Today I got back the boys class photo’s, J-man has had class photo’s before, this is his second year in pre-school but M was new at this. I have been all excited about how awesome they would be..
Yea, awesome is not how I would describe these particular photo’s, I did crop them to take out all of the other kids/teachers but I have to say, only my kids weren’t looking, or had one eye closed.

J-man
