Pregnancy Gift

Don't we all deserve to splurge on something after being pregnant for 9 1/2 months? I think so. So I went ahead and got myself this TOTALLY CUTE diaper bag. I am so excited for it to come, I hope I love it as much when it arrives as I do now.

My Dancing Princess

Kennedy started ballet and since this is my first child in a dance class, I am so in love.

(sorry the pictures are so blurry...my camera isn't great AND there is glass between us)

So in the picture below, they were "stretching". Kennedy leaned back so that she could do a FULL butterfly with her legs. Then, they were supposed to lean forward to get a good stretch....

It must have been too hard so Kennedy went ahead and moved her legs to the back and influenced her friend next to her to do the same.
(notice the teacher and the other girls doing it correctly)

I thought it was too cute. I loved watching her at ballet. She was so happy and loves it.

Friends

Aren't friends the best. I love my friends. I am sitting here crying because I am so thankful for my friends. I have always cared about friends and it is important to me to have good friends and to be a good friend.

I had a little pre-term labor problem yesterday and had to go spend a little time at the hospital and get some meds and a (really fun) shot. I am doing okay today, the contractions are slowing down as I rest and my cervix is (thankfully) holding strong so far.

(I am 32 weeks so this baby needs to wait and he seems to be doing just fine.)

So news spreads fast when you have good friends and they all want to help. One offered to bring dinner tonight and I convinced her that we were fine and that my great husband is perfectly capable of cooking of dinner. (He does it often)

Another friend insisted that she come over to get the kids ready for school. I told her no thank you ...she came anyway (and she folded a basket of laundry and cooked lunch while here).

My carpool friend insisted on driving both ways today AND on bringing over dinner. Which I again politely declined and she wouldn't hear of it. So we are having salmon at 6:00.

I feel blessed and thankful and loved. Thank you friends.

(my sisters are going to kill me....I swear I have been laying down all day, I just stopped to blog for 2 minutes when I got up to go potty)
