Summer Pictures

Dear Students,

Many of you have been curious about the size of my stomach. In the early months of a pregnancy it is difficult to notice. The baby is so small that it doesn't need a lot of room. As the baby gets larger, so does my stomach. During the last few months my stomach will look bigger and I will look more and more pregnant.

Those last few months are during the summer and you will not see me during that time. Therefore, I will add pictures this summer of me and my growing belly. Come back often to my blog and you will get to see how my stomach starts too look more and more like one of a pregnant woman.

Have fun this summer!

Love,

Mrs. Gardner

P.S.

After the baby is born, I'll post pictures for you to all see her.

Baby News

Many of the students are anxious to know the gender of my baby. Today we found out it is a girl. Everything is progressing nicely and so far it is a very healthy baby.

Some students have been asking to see some new pictures, so here they are. She is a lot bigger this time, so it is more difficult to get a picture of her whole body.

These two pictures are of her head. You can see part of her hand near her chin.

The color picture is a 3D color picture of her face.

Here is a picture of her knee, leg and foot.

Here is a picture of her arm, hand and fingers. You can also see her leg is bent.

April 6th

Many students have been wondering about the gender of my baby. Good news is here. No, I don't know the gender yet. However, I do know WHEN I will find out. On Tuesday, April 5th I have a doctor's appointment and at that appointment I should find out. I will publish a post after my appointment so those with internet access can find out on that day.

I will finally be able to answer the question when students ask if it is a boy or a girl. I will know the answer and be able to tell students on April 6th.

Yearbooks, Yearbooks, Yearbooks

It is not too late to order your color yearbook.

The sooner you order, the more likely you will get a copy when they arrive in May.

When we run out, we run out and we won't be purchasing any more.

Yearbooks are $20.00 each.

Start saving your money now - Do you get a weekly allowance? If you save two dollars per week you will have enough money to buy a yearbook when they arrive.

New Video

I added a video to my blog. Check it out. It is about a minute long. Scroll down the right until you see it, then you can watch it.

Yearbook Contest

Would you like your artwork published in the yearbook? Do you want to write a poem or short story to be included in the yearbook? Don't forget the contest ends this Friday - March 11th. One winner from each grade level will be selected - enter your creation and you might be the lucky winner!

Pickles and Yearbook Information

This is the last week for pickle sales. Wednesday and Friday this week are the last time you can purchase pickles for the yearbook fundraiser.

50 cents each

Would you like to be quoted in the yearbook? Fill out the questionaire and return it to Mrs. Gardner and one of your comments could be included in the yearbook! Hurry - the deadline is this Friday - March 4

Big News

Mrs. Gardner is having a baby! It is only 13 weeks right now. Some of the students have requested a copy of my latest ultrasound photo so I decided to post it on my blog. Many students want to know if it is a boy or a girl. We don't know yet, it is too early to tell. Some students have asked me what the baby's name is. Again, we don't know yet because we don't know if it is a boy or a girl. If it is a boy, his name will be Luke. If it is a girl, her name will be Hannah.

Database

We will begin learning about databases. Here are some databases you can use to search for a variety of things.
