Project 365 - Day 112

It is recital day!! Emily is getting all "glammed" up and ready for her big night. Tonight Emily will perform in both of the performances - in the ballet and tap/jazz productions. She is so excited!

LOSER

..is what I felt like tonight :(

So, I was always a very sensitive person growing up - you could look at me the wrong way and I would cry. No lie. I've pretty much grown a little thicker skin and I can handle "life" in a much better way. I haven't really even had any irrational emotional breakdowns since I have been pregnant. Tonight was the final rehearsal for the dance studio that I help out at. The helping out has been teaching the teen jazz class and choreographing 2 jazz dances for them for the recital.

I was so excited about seeing the program and seeing "choreographed by Kimberly....". It has been about 6 years since I have choreographed anything, so I was pumped! Well, guess what was missing in the program. You got it, my name as a choreographer. I know its petty and I am probably more upset because I am about to pop, but I really did want to cry. Its not like I am expecting all this recognition and praise, just a little acknowledgement for the year's worth of hard work. It wasn't even like this was a paying job - I taught the class for free because I was asked to and thought it would be fun. It has been a lot of fun and I have enjoyed being with the girls and getting to know all of their personalities. I will miss them this summer and I will miss our one senior that will be going off to college in the fall. It just stinks that people won't know that I put in the hard work for the dances.

If I can find my point and shoot camera charger I will record the dances and upload them tomorrow or Sunday :)

Project 365 - Day 111

It is rehearsal night! Tomorrow is the big day for the recital - I cannot wait for the girls to perform...

36 Week (& 2 day) Update

How Far Along?: 36 weeks

Total Weight Gain?: 27 lbs.

Maternity Clothes?: Yes - most definitely. Is there a clothing for beyond maternity? I had to bring out the "white flag" underwear as John refers to them...

Sleep?: Nope, dreaming all the nightmares I can get. Sweating more than I have ever sweated in my life while John is bundled up in blankets. I never get hot...

Best Moment This Month?: Seeing John paint the nursery :)

Movement?: Yes, of course movements are more subtle which freaks me out, but I am still getting great movement.

Body Changes/Labor Signs?: More contractions!! YAY!! Who cheers for contractions these days? I sure do! I am 1cm dilated - so only 9 more to go!! A little more swelling in my hands and feet by the end of the day and my face is filling in quite nicely, but nothing to worry about. My blood pressure is still cool as a cucumber at 90/68 :)

Belly Button?: It all depends on where she is hanging out. Today someone told me that I still have a few more months to go because my belly button isn't popped out. WRONG!

What I Miss: Being able to read a paragraph out loud in small group without getting breathless...

What I Am Looking Forward To: I think we all know the answer to this one :)

Appointment went well - it would have been better if they were ready to induce me :) I had the strep B test and we will have the results at our next appointment. I am at 1cm dilated - so we know something is going on! John painted the nursery and we are waiting on the furniture to arrive. It should be here the end of next week! I am looking forward to having everything set up and ready. I have washed the sheets, but that is about it. I have a little area with bags ready for me and BG and her clothes laid to the side - that I still need to wash. Maybe that will be a nice weekend project. Yeah right :) For now I just (im)patiently wait for BG to make her appearance. Oh, I am officially finished with the heparin shots and baby aspirin - WAHOO!! Now my bruises will have a chance to heal.

Project 365 - Day 110

This is part of my job. I take pictures of our customers (and usually the salesperson) after they have purchased a car from my sister/brother-in-law's dealership. Check out the website if you need a car - Kellers Auto Sales.
