I have to say I could not have been happier with the timing of my pregnancy. Having Jack in the beginning of May and then having 16 weeks maternity leave made for the best summer ever! Made even better when your husband and virtually all of your friends are teachers and you all have the summer off together. Because of this we got to do a bunch of fun stuff we most likely would not have been able to do:
We spent lots of time with Grandma
We had some backyard BBQ's
We spent lots of quality time with Harper
and Auntie Megan
and even Sienna a couple times
We got to visit our cousins
and have extra cuddles with daddy
We spent some time at the pool with the McCann's...
And with the Hare's
Uncle Terry came and played a few times and taught Jack about world cup soccer
We went to our first Spokane Indians game...
We had an impromptu garage sale and made some extra money
We spent time with Uncle Simpson and learned about Michael Jackson and PYT
And lots of shopping trips with mom
All that plus 4 uninterrupted months getting used to our new normal as a family of 3! I could not have asked for a more memorable, perfectly timed, maternity leave. We truly are blessed beyond belief.
