Happenings

Wow, I have not blogged in a while!!! So much has been going on lately.

So.....where to begin.....I went back to work starting on the 9th. I had two days of new teacher orientation and I was flipping late the first day! Agh! How embarrassing. Everything I had said 8:30 and it started at 8:00. Got past those two days and spent the next two moving into my new offices. Yes, you read that correctly two offices. I am working between two schools. Mesnier houses K-2 and Gotsch houses 3-5. I am in charge of 2nd and 3rd graders at those schools. Everyone has been really great so far. Change is so hard because I really miss my friends and familiar faces at Bayless. After being in one place for 7 years it is hard to change and be the new person.

This past Wednesday kids started to come to school and I started my day at Mesnier to help with the little kindergarteners. WOW! What a difference from what I have ever worked with. It went pretty successful and I only had to carry one student into the building. The next few days went fairly smoothly but I have been exhausted. Between seeing kids, getting up early and learning a whole bunch of new stuff it has really wiped me out. This coming week should be interesting....a full week!

Let's see some other things going on....Peter and I have been on a new workout schedule. We have been working out together and getting up at 5:00 am to do it. We have been doing really well, we just need to start eating better and I think we will be amazed at the weight loss. It is soooo nice to actually have a workout partner and it makes getting up at 4:50 a heck of a lot easier!

Nora is great. She cracks us up daily and is such a sweet little girl. She just talks and talks and talks. The child loves, and I mean loves to read! We could read all day. It is so fun to see her imagination take over when she is playing with her toys. She started back with our sitter on the 9th as well and has been just fine. Nora is the only one there on M-W-F. So she is so spoiled and gets tons of attention!

Other than that we are all doing really well and I think I can say for us all we are ready for fall!

Nora's 1st Cardinal Game

 

 

 

We took Nora to her first Cardinals game this past week. We got to sit in a party box and thought we would bring her with since there is plenty of room to walk around. She had fun! She watched the baseball game, ran up and down the stairs and ate food. I think it will be a while before we actually pay for a ticket for her and take her in a regular seat. We had fun though!
