Mystery Solved

Ever since Kaylie got her "big girl" toddler bed, Nate and I have frequently found her laying in front of her door when we'd check on her before going to bed.  What could she be doing there?  At the time she was not tall enough to open the door, but she never called out to us or knocked on the door wanted to be let out.

This week, Nate solved the mystery.  Once again, he opened the door before coming to bed and found her blocking the door.  Only this time he noticed the pile of books near her.  Kaylie has been reading books by the light that comes under her door.  We definitely know who's daughter she is.

2nd to Last Day of School

Two more day.  That's all.  Now back to cleaning my classroom.

Baby Boy Pictures

Just thought I'd share a copy of pictures of our new little guy while I had Internet access at Mom's. Enjoy!

Our due date is July 9th.  We're excited to have this little guy come to our family!

"I'm worried about my grade."

We watched this video last week at a professional development. I'm likely to hear this conversation next week as the end of our trimester approaches. (Warning, this video does have very mild language--less intense that you'd hear in a typical school hallway.)

2011

It's amazing to think that it's 2011 already. Wow! Where did the time go?

Well, there's lots that I would like to post...pictures of the house after a year, pictures from our winter vacation, etc. But I only have a couple minutes left of my prep. period today at school. So, in case you haven't seen the sad video footage or newspaper pictures of Laguna after the flood, here you go. (I took pictures last week of what it looks like a week later, will post soon.)

Paint, FINALLY!!!

So the plan was to paint our bedroom BEFORE we moved in.  Well, that didn't happen.  The new plan is to paint it next week.  Money is set aside, the schedule is free.  We'll see if it actually happens.  (Pictures to follow if it does.)

Way Cool for Digital Scrapbooking

So, I've been enjoying finishing my wedding scrapbook with the amazing computer program by Creative Memories.  But I've also been wanting to find additional free papers and emblishments for my collection.  We'll today I found something cool.  It's called a "blog train."  In this one http://ldsblogtrainblog.blogspot.com/ many people created digital scrapbooking things based off an LDS theme.  Like the last one was "Called to Serve".  Everything seems to be based off the same colors, which is nice.  (I even found out that someone had created a Thai mission tag.  Way cool!)

The next "blog train" is set for June 1st.  Guess I'll have to head over to Mom's for the internet that day.  :)
