Baby bump

Jayna is having a baby girl in 1 day. She's either going to name the baby Braces-toothpick or Smartie.

Almost every day Jayna inspects my belly and asks me if it's any bigger. I think she just expects me to wake up with a huge belly one day, kind of like this.

Kepler has a new favourite game he likes to play at meal times. He says "Let's talk about baby." So I start out by saying "My baby likes to eat cereal (or whatever we happen to be eating)." Then Kepler says "I have a baby in my tummy and my baby likes to eat cereal too." Then him and Jayna start saying all the things their baby likes to eat and it usually gets pretty silly and ends up with things like fish (as in our pet fish), forks, socks, etc.

Hooray!

I'm 14 weeks pregnant and have already felt this baby moving!
We're so excited, August can't come soon enough!

Anything you can do I can do better...

Last week I was pretty proud of myself when I did this with the kids. But then yesterday and today has been pretty warm (above zero!!!) and Kepler was so sad because "Pop-pop Wendy's head fell off". So Gibb took the kids outside to fix it...
and built a larger than life version of Pop-pop Wendy instead!
This is why I leave the snowman making to him.

Star of the Day!

Jayna was Star of the Day at preschool today. She's done this a couple times before, but today she was extra excited for it. The colour of the month is pink and she loves how everything in the room is decorated in pink. And today was wear the colour day too, so she got to get decked out in her favourite colour and she decided to bring something pink in too. When you're Star of the Day you get to be the special helper and then you get to bring something in for show and tell.

You put it in a box and then all the kids ask questions to try and guess what it is.

Then after they guess you tell everyone about what you brought and pass it around so everyone can see it.

Jayna brought in her pink bunny that she's had since she was a baby, and usually sleeps with. Up until this morning her name has always been "bunny", but as of today when the teacher asked, her name is now "headband".

Luckily Kepler and I got back to pick Jayna up a little early today and then one of the other moms offered to watch Kepler so I could go in and see. It was so cute seeing her do her thing in preschool.
