Al....most....there.....

In a couple of different ways actually! We have 5 weeks to go until this pregnancy is "supposed" to be over and we can meet the little stinker butt who's trying to do full body stretches in this belly of mine. I noticed some stretch marks on the underside of my tummy just this past week and was DEVASTATED! I thought I had been doing so well and that my Palmer's belly lotion was actually a magic potion......but I am apparently not destined to ever wear a bikini again, I guess I'll take the trade off though, for a sweet little addition to the family :)

The end is also in sight for the school year-- and it seriously couldn't come soon enough! I have ze-ro energy to keep up with these kidlets anymore. My feet are sore, I walk like a penguin, and the sheer exhaustion of hauling around an extra 30-some odd pounds has definitely become more than noticeable. Plus, the kids are just DONE. Their little noggins checked out of school about 3 or 4 weeks ago and, with all the extra baloney the administration wants them doing besides exploring their world and learning to get along with other kids, I can't say that I blame them. They have them coming back for 1 stinking day after Memorial Day! I'm not saying I want them the whole week, I'm saying, "What's the point of coming back for 1 DAY?!" So, that's where we're at- 1 more student day for preschool and then a bunch of family visits and teacher work days until I can finally officially begin my summer vacation on Tuesday June 7. Ahhhhh.....I can't wait, I'm thinking a virgin margarita is in the works for that day :)
