Another one?!

Alas, it’s true! Due date of January 11, 2013. Apparently I’ve very on schedule or like to have babies in January, because Summer’s due date was January 12. If I go early like I have in the past, it will come either on the 1st (New Year’s obviously) or the 2nd (Summer’s birthday). Yikes. Let’s hope maybe I just go on time?? I already feel like poor Summer gets the shaft on her birthday because it’s so close to Christmas! Hey, maybe I’ll go in December, which would work out great financially since I’ll have already met my out of pocket max for the year thanks to my surgery back in February. Either way, we’re super excited to welcome #3.

I was pretty sick in the beginning but I’m feeling pretty good now. Just tired. But really, isn’t that just a mom symptom anyway whether you’re prego or not?

Summer asked me what the picture was and I told her it was a baby and she asked where it was so I said in my tummy. “But where? I can’t see it!” I told her it was growing inside of me. She thought for a second and then said, “I want it to be a girl baby.” Ha, we’ll see! Of course we’d love a boy at some point but let’s be honest, girls are way more chill than boys. I feel like Hannah is already super active compared to Summer so I’m terrified for a boy! I’m kind of feeling like it’s a girl, but maybe that’s because that’s all I’ve ever known. I don’t find out until the end of August, which seems like an eternity away, but I’m sure it will be here in two shakes.

Anyway, that’s what’s up. So if you’ve seen me and wondered if I’ve been binging on cheeseburgers everyday, now you know. The chubbiness has a reason. :)

Master Derrick

Why do I suck so bad???? I’m disgusted with my blogging self. Blech,

Even though this happened well over a month ago it still needs to be documented!!

Back in May Derrick walked at UW Madison and got his MBA. My parents and his mom flew out for it and we made a weekend out of it.

The graduation ceremony was very nice. He graduated with the College of Engineering. It was very well orchestrated, I thought. Two girls read each and every graduate’s name and had it timed so perfectly so that your name was being read as you received your diploma, even though when you handed your name to the reader there were probably 8 or so people in front of you to get theirs. Impressive. The former CEO of Yahoo! was the speaker and was pretty interesting.

We walked around the farmer’s market before the ceremony so by the time it was halfway done the girls were spent. Slowly, one by one they disappeared into the lobby with a grandparent while I sat and watched most of the rest. We bailed a little early and met Derrick outside when it was all over. All in all it was a great day and I was super proud and fighting back the tears. :)
