Disclaimer: I'm SO sorry for lack of pictures... Haven't been in school enough to take pics yet... (and it's a new room)
LISTENING: so, yeah, I got a lot going on with me and my life. I have SOOOOO much to accomplish in the next 3 weeks, that I'm not quite sure how it's going to happen! Tomorrow I leave for a week at the beach. I want to desperately enjoy it, but I'm not quite sure it'll happen. I'm moving to a new grade, after teaching 1st for 11 years (at my current school). I had to move my classroom... that I couldn't get into very often, yet. And, I'm about to have a baby! So I've been going absolutely NUTS!
LOVING: So, I {heart} summertime. I usually love the heat. This summer has been uncharacteristically cool and I'm actually loving it, because the days it wasn't so cool.... this pregnant mama was NOT loving it! My other 2 boys were spring babies, so I never experienced the lovely summer pregnancy!
THINKING: I have 6 weeks left till I meet my newest little guy. I think that time is going to fly by--and as much as I would love it physically, I want to enjoy the last of the summer with my 2 little guys before we become a "party of 5!"
NEEDING: So, yeah--that one is self-explanatory. Moving my classroom was quite daunting.. Add in that we were in school till the LAST week of June! I don't feel like I left, yet my classroom is NO where near ready for a class---or a sub?! I've also been dealing with transferring things to my personal computer from my school's... so a lot of my pictures are in limbo. (which is code for I'm not sure where the heck they are right now---"old" computer or "new"!?!??!)
Our first day back is still a few weeks to go, but I know many of you are already headed back. I'm moving up to second grade, so I'll know quite a few little kiddies, so I am looking forward to that. BUT, I'm due on September 15th... so it will be short lived..... till the end of January! I'm looking forward to spending time at home with my little guy, while the other 2 are off to school! It will be strange to have just one at home.
Last, I wanted to put out there that I'll be participating in the big TPT sale next week! All of my store will be 20% off on top of the 10% you'll get through TPT! I'm not sure I'll have any of my projects complete that I've been working on, since I've been drowning in organizing for second grade and a sub... I'll be back in the game shortly, promise! With lots of second grade goodies!!!
Enjoy your time at the beach!! We did a long weekend this summer but I could have stayed for a whole month! Good luck with the classroom set up and your new soon-to-be bundle of joy!! :)

Good Luck! I am 100% with you on the uncharacteristically cool temps and pray that they stick around, as my school does not have AIR CONDITIONING!!!
ReplyDeleteOne of my three was born in September. He is the sweetest! Even the other two would say that and they are girls!! Enjoy every moment...I'm jealous! I'd love to go back and do it again!

I was so confused when I read you were in school for like 9 days!! Enjoy your short time at school and all that time with your little guy! So exciting! :)

Live, Laugh, I love Kindergarten
My you have had a lot going on! Congrats on your soon to be. Welcome to the club...the boys club...I have 3 boys too. Mine are all teenagers now, but I am very lucky to have teenagers that still like to hang out with mom and dad. My oldest was born August 19th, so I know exactly what your going through with the heat. I think it was 105 the day he was born. Good luck getting your room put together and cherish the time you will have with just you and your new little guy. Be sure you share pictures.
