The past two weeks have been complete and utter MADNESS!! I got the keys to my new classroom on Aug.19 and the hubs and I have been working on it EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. We started from SCRATCH meaning bare walls...materials everywhere and unorganized.
My room looks amazing. I love the way it turned out.
Here is a sneak peak of my Shared Reading/rug/library area!

Now that the room is settled...I'm not quite MENTALLY settled yet. I still have to learn this curriculum that the other teachers have been using for years. Thankfully I'm at least familiar with it all because of subbing.
I'm not going to lie. I'm stressed. Overwhelmed. Could try on cue. Poor Joel. lol I know it will get easier and just going crazy right now.
My lovely, thirty four, 4th graders come on Wednesday...whether I'm ready or not!!
Family News:
Janelle is growing up SO fast!!! Here is here 3 month pic :)

We went to the pediatric urologist regarding her Kidney Reflux (which she was hospitalized for...I dont' remember If I blogged that or not?)
Anyway, she will have to stay on antibiotics until July 2014. In July they will re-do the ink test to see if her reflux has fixed itself (which it commonly does)..but if not, she will have surgery. Want to pray for it? Pray that her bladder gets bigger and the tube connects to the bladder correctly!!!

Jake starts preschool on TUESDAY! Holy. freaking. cow. We went to the parent orientation and his classroom is owl themed and has his name on the bulletin and everything! I'm excited to drop him off on Tuesday and take one of those annoying "First day of Preschool" pics of him on the front porch ;)
Remember a while ago when I said he is NOT into TV at all? Well what a difference a few months makes. He would watch cartoons 24-7 if I let him, which I don't!!
Jake can sing the SWEETEST version of happy birthday you have ever heard, says, "Oh my GEEZE" when he thinks something is crazy, and loves singing along to the song "Easy" by Sheryl Crow.
Here is Jake and Evan. Jake is too busy playing his "Doo-a" (Dora) app on the Ipad.

I'm going to leave you with a song that I've been listening to quite often lately.
Your Plan- Dustin Lynch
Hello, it's been too long
My fault I haven't called
Thank you for picking up the phone
I've been swimming around
Trying hard not to drown
Waiting on my life calling to sound
And I'm hangin' on best as I can
Cause I know this whole crazy ride,
Is in your hands
It's your plan
This is my white flag wave
This is me handing you the reigns
I know you can steer my hurricane
And I'll hang on best as I can
Cause I know this whole crazy ride
Is in your hands
It's your plan
It's your plan
So I'll hang on best as I can
Best as I can
Cause I know this whole crazy ride
Is in your hands
It's your plan
