Time for Daddy to do an Update!

Wow, I cannot believe that Grace is going to be here so soon. I am still trying to grasp the concept that there are no more months between the time Kendall is pregnant and the time Grace will be in arms, that is if she comes on time.

This past Thursday we started our getting ready for baby classes. We were surpised by the other students in the class. We always go in to these things feeling like we are going to be the youngest of the group and well let's just say we were probably one of the most prepared couples for a baby. Our teacher said that pregnancy is the great equalizer and it is true, all the pregnant mommies in the class could share the pains and weird feelings they are having.

This is where Grace will be born and the location of our classes:





Class was fun and I tried my best to not say anything to embarassing. I slipped up once when I shared the fun fact that most women fear having a bowel movement on the table while pushing more than the pain and the blood. The teacher handled it well and was able to move on.

We got a good laugh on Sunday while we were doing our "homework" for the class. There is a chart where we needed to track Grace's movements. Well Grace moves a lot and in the example they gave in our workbook, the sample mom felt 10 movements of her baby over 2 hours, by the time you are done reading this sentence, I am positive Grace has moved 10 times.

School is in full swing and I was able to start my stations with my students in Science. They are really ejoying the different scenery on a daily basis. They also really like having the opportunity to use the SMART Board rather than just watching their teacher do it. Kendall is having "fun" at her school and is accomplishing more than is humany possible, so it is a good thing she has me and her mom to go into school with her to get it all done.





We put all the finishing touches on the baby shower this week. The food, the cake, and the balloons are all ordered so everythign is set to go. I think it is going to be loads of fun and we are going to have plenty of food to go around. Next week we will get to update you on all the wonderful things we got in preparation of Grace's arrival.

One last side note, Taylor and JPa are making their way across Scotland, the land of Grace's ancestor on the Knapp side, so maybe someday Grace will be part of a Clan.
