I've been meaning to send Em to school in her big sister shirt for the last month and just keep forgetting, but finally remembered yesterday. Up until now we haven't said anything to her teachers at school, as I figured we wouldn't hold a spot for the baby until we knew the gender and could put a name on all the paperwork. And quite frankily, I figured my belly probably already gave us away.
But anyways, I put her in her big sister shirt, dropped her off in the morning and quickly left without saying anything. Her usual teachers weren't in there yet. She's one of the first dropped off in her class, so Em's old teacher from the young toddler room brings her class over into Em's classroom in the morning until more kids get there. I had no idea if anyone would even notice the shirt. Again, this is the same shirt we used to share the news with my family and tried unsuccessfully to share the news with Shawn's dad.
Well, around lunchtime, when I know it's naptime, one of Em's teachers (the one that we've used as a baby-sitter before) text me saying they noticed her shirt and they were all so excited for us! I'm sure they all made a big deal about it with Em and made her feel special.
Here's a few pics from the morning before I sent her off to school.
