31 weeks: so much going on!

1. I got my maternity portraits back. Check them out– doesn’t my belly look like an egg?

2. Gabster decided to potty-train herself over the weekend. Now, she did pick a terrible weekend for it, with all the places we had to be, but she did great.  Unfortunately for me, she has a bladder the size of an acorn, and since my belly is rapidly getting huuuuge, I anticipate some tough public restroom trips ahead.

3. Have I mentioned that I’m teaching a class at the beginning of the summer?  I’m teaching through June 22, and yes, my due date is June 18.   I’ve decided I’ll just have to go way over, in order to fit it all in.

4. Yesterday I was trying to get down the sewing basket, which lives in the walk-in closet in the baby’s room. Only Dave has piled a bunch of crap on the floor of that closet, and also carefully placed the sewing basket just out of my reach. I knocked over the vacuum cleaner and busted open a box of outgrown kids’ clothes, and knocked into something which totally bruised one side of my belly.  (Dave’s fault, obviously.)

5. Did I mention that, on Saturday evening about 6:00, Dave decided the grass must be cut at all costs?? Then proceeded to spend 2.5 HOURS doing just that?  I will never understand that boy’s love for the lawn mower.

6. No names, still, for the baby. HELP!!!!!!!!
