stay awhile winter.






It's been beautiful all weekend (80's) but I wouldn't mind sweater weather for a few more months before I get in my car only for it to be a steam room. This week I had parent teacher conferences. The week was too long and by the time Friday graced us with it's presence it was gone. I seriously hate how fast weekends go. I desperately need to figure out a solution with the distance with work because it's too far away and I feel like all I do is travel. I would love to work at a school that is closer to my home so I could spend more time with this little guy. Nothing is worse then leaving early, not seeing him and then coming home and it's time for him to go to bed. It's just overall depressing.

On a positive note, my kids scored an 88% meets and exceed on their latest benchmark assessment (highest in the school). My kids are going to kill the AIMS in the spring. I really do have the best group of kids (especially my honors group).

On another positive note, I got my Valentine's present early this year. Matt bought me a bunch of flowers to plant in the yard (ranunculus - my favorite). He is also going to build me a garden box for the backyard so I can plant herbs and flowers. I love him.

Jeremy's birthday party.

















Here are a few snapshots from Jeremy's birthday party. He will be one on Tuesday. 
Happy "early" birthday Jeremy!

MLK Day.




Over Christmas break we cut his hair. After we cut it, I missed it. I liked his shaggy long hair so now we are growing it back out. Luckily his hair grows really fast. I'm just bummed about it.
My little boy has grown so fast and is so big. He doesn't walk anymore. He runs. Everywhere. He will sit on our laps... but only if we are reading him a book. Sweet boy.

lives.




He's turning one next week.
I may just cry. How did this year go so fast? 

He is doing this thing now where he copies us. He also sticks his tongue out at us. He doesn't mind making fun of us to our face :)

Two weeks until I have a one year old.

I miss this face & matt's when I'm at work. A lot :*(

P.s... do you think Jeremy looks like my dad in this photo... minus the classy mustache? I think it's the eyes. 
It's said. He looks like my dad in this photo. 

Bonjour.
