christmas in august

ahhh, today, homeschoolers all across chicago will be removing the rubber bands off their shirts and socks and old undies and rinsing them in cold water until it runs clear, and then washing and then drying and then wearing their new tie dyed clothing.

its like christmas in august! I opened all mine this am and they are happily spinning in the washer right now. I’ll post pix later, but it was so much fun to see how they turned out! Our third annual homeschool tie dye party was a big success! we had a lot of colors to choose from, and a lot of folks participated, even the littlies Zibby was bummed that I didnt save her stuff to do at the end, so we ended up dyeing the clothes off her back! I hope everyone is happy with their outcomes.

today we are heading over to the Field musuem with friends. we hit the planetarium and the aquarium last week, as well as a childrens museum. ahh, the cool indoors during august in chicago. while 9 mos pregnant

Today is 37 weeks, full term. I can officially have this baby anytime now, at home Cmon baby! I’ve been having lots of ctx and crampy feelings, which I remember from the week before I had Zibby. Its so exciting and crazy to think that I am going to be the mother of two people very soon. I am also feeling very nesty and anxious and concerned about names for baby and everything else. I guess that just means that I really am 9 mos pregnant.

Pics later of the tie dye!
