* Shawn painted the baby's room this week. We chose this really fabulous grayish green. Very neutral and not at all a typical baby color. Guess what color it looks like on the walls? BABY BLUE. Completely, completely blue. And pastel and everything baby boy. Which totally means we're having a girl. Now I'm a bit worried about the color we chose for Samara's room. It's a taupey (is that a word?!) purple color which is just a tad bit girlish but still quite neutral and not over the top. It's probably going to show up incredibly baby pink.
* Today was Samara and I's first day of swimming lessons. I was really, really dreading it. I had already made peace with the fact that I would have to be in pee water and that my bare feet might touch someone else's feet germs. What I couldn't get past was that I would be in a bathing suit in front of PEOPLE. And not just any bathing suit, a bikini. I completely realize there are other bathing suits for sale, ones designed especially to flatter a woman's pregnant body. But they're ridiculously expensive for just a couple of month's use and my bikinis still fit me so I thought why not. At least...I thought why not until it actually came time to display it. It went fine though...I rocked it as best as I could and it didn't appear like people were pointing and whispering!
* Sam, by the way, enjoyed about 1/2 of the swimming class and spent the 2nd half clutched to me with her head on my shoulder. Good cuddle time if nothing else!
* I did not enjoy the fact that it seemed like everyone in the class all knew each other from other programs and all their kids were WAY younger than Samara. She seriously looked like she was in the wrong class and that her delinquent mom had signed her up incorrectly.
* It's raining and I'm in a rotten mood. Can you tell?!

I wore a bikini on the cruise but the only person I knew there was M so it was okay. You could not pay me to wear one in front of people I might know.
Now, if I looked like you - I'd probably just walk around in a bikini all the time. Or maybe just panties!!
And I hear ya on the pee water - yuck!
I hear ya! It's raining here too, and I'm in a foul mood.
All the other kids are probably younger 'cause the other 1+ year olds are in daycare. A weekend class would probably be packed with them. At least, I'm finding the same problem.
Maddy was clingy for the first couple of classes last session too, and now she can't get enough of the pool. Sam will be loving it in no time!
Swim class was a nightmare for us when Tot was a baby. Now she loves the water, but the whole class thing was rough.
Here's to a sunny day tomorrow!
The pee and feet germ fears made me laugh! Sorry you're having a rotten day...rainy here too tonight!
But hey, you rocked a bikini at like 28 weeks pregnant! Even if anybody was talking about it I'm sure they were just saying wow, wish I could do that! :)
I'm with CanadianMama... if I had your body, I'd be rocking the bikini all the time! It's not uncommon these days for pregnant women to wear them and to proudly show off their bellies!
