Playing Catch Up

It's been over a month since my last post and life is finally starting to settle down a little. For a while I barely found any time to do the daily essentials, and after pushing too hard for the last few weeks my health has suffered slightly. Just as everything wound-down I ended up getting a nasty cold that knocked me out for a week or so. Now that I'm recovering, the girls are sick. Oh well, this too shall pass.
So we finished T-ball season and the girls had a fun time despite all of the rain outs and very cold days. They were mostly excited to get their trophies at the last game.


My big news was that I survived a long, hard year of kindergarten and finished on the 6th! It's official-I'm 'unemployed'. (At least until I get the preschool started in a few weeks.) I'm so excited to be moving on, but boy is it scary too! I'm so tired of packing and moving boxes after bringing home 8 years worth of teaching things! It's way to exhausting to move when I'm pregnant. At least I don't have to unpack for a few more weeks!
The preschool is making progress. We are almost done with the sheet rock and expect to be mudding this weekend. Thanks to everyone that has helped along the way-we could never have done this without all of your help! I've filled up a few of the slots, but still have a lot of room for students. Keep spreading the word-it really helps! Oh, and let people know that I recently decided to drop my prices to help get my enrollment up!


Baby girl number three is only 11 weeks away and I can't believe it's coming so fast! Everything is going well, and Hannah and Emma are getting very excited to meet their new sister. We think we've decided on the name Grace-but it could change (but that's not likely).
I guess that's a glimpse into what's happening around here. For now, I'm catching up on all of the projects that I've left for summer and the girls are playing hard everyday! Jeff continues to work extremely hard in the basement-I love that guy so much! I know life isn't suppposed to be easy, but can it just slow down a little bit?

Sorry you have not been feeling well - its no fun to be sick pregnant because you cannot take much to get over it as fast as everyone else - The preschool is looking nice, the hard work is paying off! Let us know a day we can come help you with things,even if it is moving boxes. :0) You need to check out "Hair today" on our blog - it's seriously one of the cutest websites I have ever seen! I wish I had girls like you to start some of the cute hairstyles on there! I LOVE to do hair!
