I told the staff at school today- I brought in pink and blue frosted cupcakes. Everyone was really happy for me. They all wanted to make sure I'm coming back next year though- I guess that's a good sign, they want me to stick around! :)

I also told my class. I brought in cups for a baby shower that say BABY on them and filled them with puppy chow (you know that great recipe where you pour melted chocolate and peanut butter over crispix cereal and coat it in powdered sugar). I had them guess why I was giving them a snack in those cups. Here are some guesses:

-Your mom is having a baby!
-It's Jack's birthday!
-It's your birthday!
-Your sister is having a baby!
-Finley is having puppies! (I think the puppy chow threw them off a bit)
-Someone in your family is having a baby!

I finally had to tell them it was ME having the baby! They were absolutely shocked! It never occured to them that their own teacher could be the one having a baby! Then they all made me feel great when they said, "But you don't look like you're going to have a baby!" Thank you for that!!!!

Brandon is going crazy researching baby girl names. He was on the internet for hours last night making a list of names. And here I thought we were all settled on our choices! At least our boy name is still agreed upon!
