Playing Catch Up

It has been such a busy two weeks!

I started teaching full time at school,

which leaves me NO time at home

to do anything but cook, bathe kids,

and sleep. Literally.  But... I have good news....

Lesson planning is OVER for my first phase.

WHOO! I wrote a total of  70 lesson plans

for this phase. That is a lot in intern world.

I have two more weeks until spring break

and I am counting down! Don't get me wrong,

I love my students and my teacher, but they

wear me out! And I am ready to paint

my kitchen and get my hair done. I'm going

back blond, finally! Seriously I am counting

down for that one. I can't wait to see my hair

back the color it longs to be. It has slowly

turned light blond since I first dyed it brown

anyways. I don't think it likes it.

In other news... Kyler will be signed up for

t-ball by the end of the day! He is going

to play in Caledonia this year since we live

here now. Only makes sense.  I am kinda

sad because he can't play with Jayce or

Rylee this year, but he needs to make new

friends and we need to make new parent friends

if we are going to be here for a while. And since

Kyler will start school next year, he needs

to be around some kids that he will know!

I am excited about t-ball season this year. Last

year I was pregnant and was miserable towards

the end of it when all the games were in June.

This year it should be much more comfortable.

And we only have to go about 4 miles to get

to the field. YAY!

Harper got her tubes in Wednesday. And she is

wonderful! Prayers were surely answered that day

and afterward.  She did so good going to sleep

with the gas and then waking up.  She was a little

disoriented (who wouldn't be when you had just been

put to sleep with a balloon flying over your face and

a gas mask) when she first woke up, but she was

totally fine about 15 minutes later.  By the time we left

the hospital around 9 a.m., you couldn't even tell

she had anything done! She was fine the rest of the day

at home, as well.  Just the happiest little thing. Well,

she's not that little, either.  She weighs 21 pounds. ya.

And Kyler? He weighs 38 pounds. Big kids, I tell ya.

But they are healthy.

Speaking of Kyler... I picked him up from school the other

day and our conversation went something like this:

K "Momma, you know what?"

me- "what?"

K "You know who I want to be when I grow up?"

me- "who?"

K "Eric."

me- "who is Eric?"

K "you know, Eric... the prince!"

me- "prince of who?!"

K "the prince on Mermaid, and Lana is

going to be Ariel and we are gonna get married!"

me- "married?"

K "ya, me and Lana, gonna get married. Just 

like Eric and Ariel."

yea...  married. as a four year old. All that whole 

movie and the boys fight over who is going to

marry Lana. At least he's a ladies man! Lana

is a pretty girl! :)

Graduation is soon approaching..as is

my job applications.  I have them finished,

just putting some last minute touches on them

to get them right before I send them off.  Want

them to be perfect! Pray something comes up

and there is a good position open for me for

the fall! I have heard some places that have openings,

but i don't want to bank on anything just yet.  

I plan on doing some school work today

and grade some papers from yesterday.

Life of a teacher! :)

Here are some pictures from the last few days,

and Kyler and Harper's school pictures for the

Spring! They turned out SO good I thought!
