A New Beginning...

It's official- I am completely done with school... at least for quite a few years! Thursday was the last day of school, which means I am officially a stay at home mom!
I must admit that it will be an adjustment and quite the change to get used to, but I am looking forward to spending all my time with my little precious girl! After I went back to school from maternity leave it took awhile to used to it- not being at home with Hadley all day, having to drop her off at my sister's each morning, back doing school work, going non-stop all day long. But after some time, I really got used to working and having a baby. I absolutely loved teaching and being with those kids all day, therefore Thursday was a tough day filled with mixed feelings. Many tears were shed- mine and theirs (oh how I love them!!), but now I am ready to be home!
After school on Thursday we had a staff lunch where they said goodbye to the teachers that were leaving. We had to get up and give a favorite memory of our time at the school. I couldn't think of just one so I said two big ones. Definitely my team that I teach with- those girls are my best friends! And of course each day with my kids, never a dull moment there!
So here I go to a different and more rewarding full time job...


Classic Hadley picture pose...

Reading to 1 three month old instead of 25 eight year olds... quite different :)

How could I not want to be at home with this adorable thing all day!!

Little Friends

Last week my friends Ily and Cami came over so our babies could finally meet! Little Jane, Dexter and Hadley had quite the time together! Dex really liked the girls and loved Hadley- he kept putting her hands in his mouth and getting really close to her. Well, as soon as we moved her we learned that he really was just trying to get over her by rolling!! Dex is about two months older than Hadley and Jane and the little girls are only 18 hours apart! Both little girlies look like their daddies- they were so cute!!
Cami and I know that Jane and Hadley were friends before they came down and they planned to come down together :)



It really was so fun to watch them! Dex was so smiley, Jane wouldn't take her eyes of Cami, and Hadley was just very curious as to what was happening, her eyes were darting from one person to the next!
We can't wait for our next play group- hopefully thier newest little friend Pollux can join us!
