My pregnant belly

I haven't taken very many pictures of my pregnant belly yet. You know, it is not the first thing on my mind to run and get my camera and want to take a picture of me out-growing all my clothes. I am getting more used to my bigger and more rounder belly, and I absolutely love feeling the baby move right now. It is a little reminder that I am growing a miracle inside my tummy; my expanding and very quickly growing tummy.This was taken last week when I was 21 weeks pregnant.

18 weeks pregnant

This was my first picture to take after I found out I was pregnant. I was 16 weeks pregnant. You can't really tell I am pregnant yet, but I was sure getting uncomfortable in those black pants so I couldn't wait to take a picture. At that time I actually was looking forward to looking pregnant. Not so much anymore, now that it is happening. I forgot how expensive maternity clothes are!

My first blog

I finally decided to join the world of blogging. I kept putting it off because my life is really not that exciting to anyone but us, but I hope that there are a few loyal friends out there that will humor me and look at my blog from time to time. If not, I am sure this will be a great way to pass the hours away in 5 short months when I have a newborn baby that is up all night. Here is the rundown on our family: Brian and I have been married for 8 years, we have one son Bryson who is 4 1/2 years old and in Preschool, and we are pregnant with our second child which is a girl and we are due on April 5th, 2009. This is my 6th year to be teaching. I teach Kindergarten and I (usually) love it! It is such a tough job, but it is also so very rewarding. I hope to be able to keep up with this blog thing, I will try my best. I always enjoy reading everyone else's blogs so I figured I would finally join in the fun.

Here are a few pictures of Halloween this year. Bryson wanted to be a pirate, isn't he cute?
