Labor Day

Happy Labor Day....a little late into the day. I apologize for the lack of regular blog posting, but I'm sure yall understand how exhausted I am. Normally, the first few weeks of school are tiring BUT with the pregnancy (can you tell I'm excited to be sharing it FINALLY), I come home most nights, sleep, eat dinner, lay on the sofa for an hour, and go to bed. My poor husband. He is such a trooper and has been the biggest blessing with all of this. I had never thought of myself as a high energy person, but now, with as tired as I feel most days, I would love for my energy level to be what it used to be. But, its a sacrifice that I am more than willing to make. Tell me, you teachers who've had babies ... how did you handle teaching and pregnancy? I'm open to all advice/stories/encouragement! 
But, my blog stalking is still a part of my weekly routine. It's been great to have a long weekend to catch up on some blog reading and to discover a new blog!! I found this wonderful blog called Sweet Blessings! It's such a joy to read. Upon finding it, I immediately downloaded some of her charming printables....and plan to laminate and put around my desk at school! Be sure to check out Shannon's blog! It's sure to make your day!
In any event, the hubby and I were overwhelmed with the congratulations and well wishes about the baby that we received from friends this weekend!! Sometimes, we feel like we live so far away from many of our old friends but it was great to see so many familiar faces write on our walls/call us/text us/email us!! :) I'm so excited that all my girlfriends know--now, I can start pestering the mommies in the crowd with questions!
Tomorrow, it's back to school for me, with all 21 of my darlings. Right after school, I have my next doctor appointment, and I'm hoping to get over to the teacher center to laminate all the goodies I printed out this weekend. It'll be a long day..... wish me luck!

Just a little fun food for thought!! :) Mostly because it made me smile!

  1. Love the cartoon pic.
    I don't remember how I made it through teaching during the pregnancy year....Aidan was born in April. I know I cried a lot at the beginning of the school year. I know I LOVED to sleep...but I know the rest went by so fast I don't even remember... And the funny thing is...this time around you'll cater to your emotions and cravings and tiredness..but for baby #2....you get to have none of those things to fall back on- so enjoy spoiling yourself now while you can....
