Five for Fridays

1. Was told that I had to take the third CSET (Calculus) if I want to continue to teach Alg 2 Trig (because of the Trig portion), so in addition to being 37 weeks pregnant on Monday and Wednesday of this past week and next week I am taking a 3 hour class to refresh my memory of calc... It's kind of rushed and confusing at times because we are trying to get through the entire Calc book in 4 sessions, but I've forgotten how much I love to learn... I feel so smart when I remember something, or get the right answer when no one else does. The test is in mid July, so I am trying to get most of my studying done before Breslin get's here.

2. Spent my "first" mother's day over at Janie's for a nice day of lunch and dinner with the Burrill and Choate clan.

3. If you've checked out my 365 blog, you saw that we put in a screen door on Breslin's room. For the safety of Breslin from the cats! You can never be too safe. Beaumont is bipolar, so who knows how he will react to Breslin, and Thomas is really lovey... sometimes to lovey (like this morning when I woke up to Thomas on top of my chest mewing and purring). Probably not a good idea that Thomas does this with Breslin because if any of you know Thomas... is a bit on the hefty side!

4. We decided to do ViaCord, which is a Cord Blood banking and Stem Cell storage system. It is a bit on the pricey side, but Brady and I see it is an insurance policy. Something that we will pay for but hopefully never have to use. But in the event Breslin may need something from his Cord blood we want to be prepared and ready. There are so many advancements in medicine we want to have a leg up just in case.

5. As of Friday May 13, Breslin is 2 weeks away from his due date (and we are two weeks away from the end of the school year). I had a doctors appointment and everything looks good, but it doesn't look like Breslin wants to come early at all. There was zero dilation. (Let's be honest... I really don't even know what that means...) Even though we are anxiously awaiting Breslin's arrival and would love for him to come a little early, for school 's sake (for me) and for baseball's sake (for Brady and all of the baseball parents) it would be perfect if he waited until his due date, much to Mitzi's (Brady's sister) disappointment!!!!
