VIP, Ding Dong Dash and 35 weeks!

Well this month Madison received the VIP award for her class for the month. Madison has worked really hard so far this year and she was finally rewarded for it! So far about once a month Miss. Harris will send Madison a postcard in the mail with an encouraging message.

For example, "Madison, Thank you for working so hard last week to try your best and to be a good example to your peers! You are a great student! Keep up the wonderful work! Miss. Harris."


A few weeks ago I got this email from Miss. Harris,

"Hey Ann,
I just wanted to let you know that Madison is having a fabulous day! I know that she usually has wonderful days, but I thought that I would let you know anyways (it is always nice to hear good news). She is being extra helpful, and her participation in class lately has been wonderful :)"

We are so proud of Madison and all the hard work she does to stay at the top of her class. She is really excelling in Math and enjoys a good story problem!
Tonight at bedtime she told me that she thinks College will be funner than 1st grade and that she was going to get a job tomorrow! Such a goof!

VIP includes a certificate, special lunch table, book, popcorn, happy meal, free shake at Red Robin, and parents get to come for lunch!!

Ding Dong Dash!

Well every year we have a host of friends that bring gifts and goodies during the weeks leading up to Christmas. We call them neighbor gifts! And ours will go out on Sunday!
Anyway last night we had our first ding dong dash of the season! The porch light was off, they rang the doorbell and ran off before I could even get to the door!! The kids were so excited to find a bag of surprises!! Each thing in the bag was labeled with an "open" date! So today was the first day! It was a horse! Madison and Zachary have both figured it out already and can't wait until all the pieces are open! So if the family that has done this reads our blog, Thank You!!!!

Week 35!

So today I had my 35 week appointment! I am down to once a week for the next two weeks!! And so far it is very hard to schedule an appointment during the holidays!

Anyway I have not gained a pound since BEFORE Thanksgiving! No joke! Not a single pound! I know all my pregnant friends who read the blog hate me by now! Sorry! My OB said that it is totally fine! I have gained enough! A whopping 10 lbs! Brynley is growing fine, and her heart rate is normal and my blood pressure is awesome! Oh and no swollen feet! WHAT??

However, he can't tell if she is heads down. My last appointment the other OB said she was. This time he couldn't tell. So I have another ultrasound next week to make sure!! Dr. Bradshaw said that I can go anytime now and to be ready! Especially since this is #3! He told me to put on my walking shoes and get moving! He wouldn't be surprised if she comes next week!!! Aaaaahhhhhhhh! I need to have a bag ready!
So stay posted and be on the look out for good news!!

Have a fabulous week!!

That's so exciting, it could be any day! That would be fun to have a little Christmas baby.
