Vince and I got to spend a week in Hilton Head over Easter with my parents, his parents, sister and her boyfriend. We were so lucky to visit with them for so long because we really hadn't seen any of them since Christmas. Vince got to put another crib together at the Hilton Head house so we plan on spending as much time as we can there when the little guy arrives. Now dads only job is to get the crib together in Wellston before July 25th. We shall see how that goes. Cindy and Steve already have one at their house so we are all set when we come home to visit. We had a wonderful time and of course still wish we were there. We love and miss you guys! Check out some pictures below of our wonderful vacation.
The nursery has really come along the last 3 or 4 weeks. So far we have re-done the closet and have the crib, changing table / dresser, cuddle chair, rug and this week-end the curtains will go up. I am still looking for some art work for the walls but am not in any hurry to make my final selection. I sometimes catch myself (or Vince catches me) sitting in the chair in the nursery doing nothing and just looking around. As you can tell, I can't hardly wait until the he gets here.
I know some of you have been asking about names. No name has been decided yet. We have a long list but can't make up our minds. If you know me well, you will know I am not a good decision maker so it could be awhile before the decision is made. All I know is that we have to decide before we head to the hospital because we would probably end up staying there for a week waiting on me to agree on a name. It is going to be a tough decision!
Things are going really well with my student teaching. Today I finished my 4th week and have pretty much taken over a lot of the responsibilities in the classroom. The students (1st graders) are ornery and trying at times but cute! Some days are better than others and I sure have a lot of good stories to tell Vince when I get home. They are all wanting to choose the name of our little guy. I have had some suggestions and think I will pass on them.....Black Man, Rosalie and Charlie have been the suggestions so far and I don't think any of them are going to be the winners. I still am a little confused about the little girl that told me that I should name him Black Man. One of the other girls in the class told her that Mrs. Jenkins wasn't having Darth Vaders baby and she needed to come up with another name..........gotta love 1st graders.
My next appoitment is May 10th and will mark my 30th week. Hopefully by then I will still be feeling as great as I do now. I have had no complaints about pregnancy so far. Check back to see how everything goes over the next 3-4 weeks!
