And it took nearly 2 hours for everyone to do it and then go up and test it. We were all ready to die from boredom.<BR/><BR/>I just taught 20 4th graders and their moms about puberty, periods, and breasts. ALL of the mothers were just as embarrassed to say body parts and talk about periods as their daughters were.MrsSpockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10792687516201324640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-315122152878888464.post-71136025625825202552009-03-08T13:32:00.000-04:002009-03-08T13:32:00.000-04:00Baby showers.

My first one was entirely game free -- we opened presents and ate lots of really yummy food. <BR/><BR/>I opted for a present-free party with beer for the second one. Seemed like too much to ask people to hand over gifts all over again, especially as I was having a second girl and she was going to get to wear/use all the first-round items. Also, 2 of my friends were due within a couple of weeks and I didn't want to add to the shower pressure for everyone. <BR/><BR/>I had a blast at thebeer shower. You know how people henna their bellies? My 3-year-old and some beer-swilling friends drew on mine with body art crayons. Smiley faces and stuff. It was hilarious.JGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03812906367424720600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-315122152878888464.post-39235812333748582352009-03-08T01:26:00.000-05:002009-03-08T01:26:00.000-05:00I didn't have a baby shower.

WHich seems odd.<BR/><BR/>Mind you, we also had a 'no presents' wedding, which makes me the odd one out, maybe?<BR/><BR/>As for the size of the uterus thing- who on earth does the research, because I'm scratching my head to think of a single useful thing to do with that information :)<BR/><BR/>JGeohdehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09084396088622931768noreply@blogger.com
