first day of school pic. someone wasn't entirely cooperating, and it was partly our fault, since it was done in a rush. this is the uniform z will be wearing the whole year at pasitos. he'll be there on mondays, tuesdays, and fridays, from 8:30-12:30pm. every month they offer a parents' night out (for $20) from 6:30-10:30. we plan to take advantage of at least the first one, although we won't stay out that late.
baby update - so far my doctor wants me to think about a normal delivery. i'm measuring large (judging by the fundal height), but the doctor thinks that's just because i'm a small person. i have an ultrasound scheduled for monday morning, with the aim of guesstimating the baby's size. it's not an exact science. the baby is pummeling me a lot more than z did. during pregnancy, z kicked me in the ribs frequently, and usually had the hiccups. baby sister has only had the hiccups once (from what i can tell), and she loves to try to push her whole body out into my bellybutton area. very painful. it's still hurting a lot to sleep/walk/stand, so i haven't been very active. i've been going to physical therapy every other week, as directed by my doctor, but it hasn't helped too much. i just have to wait the two months that are left. my doctor is very against drinking alcohol, so i've stopped having the occasional tiny glass of wine. i've been craving it, so i try to have a little ice cream during z's nap time as my little daily treat (not that i was ever drinking daily) for feeling uncomfortable. z seems excited about having a baby sister. he always mentions her in his list of people, along with mommy, daddy, & other random aunts & uncles. always interesting to hear who comes up. whenever he sees someone else with a baby sister, he acts very interested & tries to give the baby a gentle hug.
potty training is going fairly well, although he has accidents every now and then. if we do long outings, he wears pull ups, otherwise he's in underwear at home (although diapers for nap/bedtime). he hasn't pooped in a diaper for a long time. he was preferring the "baby" potty, but we've been fairly successful in getting him to sit on the actual "big boy" potty (which eliminates clean ups for mommy & daddy - much preferred) most of the time. i imagine when baby sister comes, he'll regress & start having lots of accidents, but for now, it's nice.
