I almost forgot

Ok, my blog has been void of posts lately which means funny preschool stories have been lacking. Now that we are telling people we are pregnant, I thought I would share the most hilarious preschool stories of the year from last week (at least for me):

In the hall for all to hear:
M: Is there a baby in there?
Miss Michelle: Yes, there is.
M: Are you pulling my leg?
Miss Michelle: (laughing) Nope, I am not pulling your leg!
M: "Pulling my leg" is an expression. It means, "Are you kidding me?"
Miss Michelle: It is an expression! It's an idiom! You're right!
M: So, you're not pulling my leg?
Miss Michelle: Nope, there's a baby in there!

A day prior when M wasn't around:
W: Is there a baby in there?
Miss Michelle: Yes there is
W: (in disbelief) JUST LIKE MY MOM!
Miss Michelle: Yup, just like your mom!
W: Well, I hope it's a girl just like my mom is having so the babies can be friends.
Miss Michelle: I think that would be nice, W.

Class discussion about baby since my tummy is no longer flat:
C: Baby in you tummy?
Miss Michelle: Yes, there's a baby in my tummy
S: But you don't look like Miss Michally (who gave birth early this morning 5/28)
Miss Michelle: My baby is still very small. It has to grow in my tummy for a long time. Miss Michally's baby is already big. I will look like Miss Michally at Christmas.
C: You have big belly at Christmas
Miss Michelle: Yup, just like Santa
Class: ooooooooh.

Expecting!?!

SOOOO, here's our baby's first picture! We are due December 28, 2008!! We are having a Christmas baby! This fits right into the Hagenbuck clan birthday schedule considering Dad is the 20th, Jesus is the 25th, Mom is the 26th, and Grandma is the 27th! It's already been an adventure with the "morning" sickness, loosing weight yet gaining a small belly, and the endless need for food/naps! So, if you have any useful advice, send it this way!

7 more days

if you don't count today. I am excited for the school year to be over. I am very tired right now. They are testing my patience. So I am threatening most of them with whether or not they will be able to move up to the Kindergarten room. It's worked pretty well so far!

Hope all is well out there in blogger land. Pictures to be posted on mine soon! :)

Love ya!
