Thought I ought to do a quick catch-up before I'm unable to! I always do my blogging from my desk at UOP, and come Friday, I won't have one! And I don't foresee having much time to blog with the school year starting up.
So here goes-
Royce and I are good. We bug each other a lot of the time because we don't have time or money to spend alone time together, but in the end, we know the root of it all and know it's 'cuz we like each other so darn much that we bug each other so darn much. So there's that. Once we get used to my pay raise and new pay schedule and get caught up on some things, maybe we'll splurge on some "us" time. 'Til then, we'll just do what we do and keep on doin'.
The kids are awesome. Hudson is a story teller and has a great imagination. He is a great big brother and baby Bentley just adores him. I cannot believe that he is going to be 3 in two weeks! We just passed a big milestone- he is potty-trained!!! It is soooooo nice to not have to buy diapers in 2 sizes anymore! We are excited for his 3rd birthday party. We are doing a Lego-themed party, but I don't think I will go all out since I am sooooo busy with my classroom prep. We did get him (and sister) a nice swing set with a slide and a climber. They love it. Bentley wants to do everything Hudson is doing. She crawls after him, climbs on him and grabs all his toys. By the end of the month, I have no doubt she will be walking all by herself. She uses the couch and her walker right now and can stand on her own when she isn't thinking about it. She is so much fun and has pretty much the cutest smile ever.
My classroom is looking great, but I am stressing myself out because I want to get my bulletin boards done and see it all together. And then I start thinking about all the stuff I need to finish, print, start, assemble, prepare, etc. and I have a minor panic attack. And I haven't even started thinking about curriculum, just procedures. I know how I want day one to look, basically down to the minute, but I won't let myself think beyond that. It's soooo exciting! And sooooo intimidating, and soooo crazy.
Anyways, I guess that about sums it up. Wish me luck, I'm gonna need it!!!
