Ahhh!!!

I absolutely CANNOT stand to be sick! Ugh! I started student teaching on Monday and I'm in a room FULL of snotty, coughing 6 year olds! I have guzzled orange juice and bathed in germ-x. My nose started running on Thursday (my birthday) and I just knew what was coming. Sure enough, Raeleigh's school called on Friday morning and she was running fever. I assume she picked it up from me and since her immune system is weaker showed symptoms faster. So I picked her up and we came home. I was ok until yesterday and it hit me, too. No fever, thank goodness! Raeleigh has been on oral meds and she is much better. However, being pregnant I can't have ANYTHING! So, here I am eating chicken soup and drinking juice. This stinks!

Snips and snails, and puppy dog tails...

...That's what little BOYS are made of! Gosh, I don't know what to do with a boy! We are very excited though! Brandon is so glad he decided to find out! Here is a picture of our little prince! Not the best quality but you get the idea!

It's a....

Light of My Life :)

Some Random Fun

So I hijacked these quizzes from my friend Renee's blog. They were kinda fun! I had to laugh when they described me pretty accurately!

You Are Aurora! (A.K.A. Sleeping Beauty.)

Thoughtful and loving. Authority figures probably have been sheltering you all of your life. Thankfully you're a very tranquil person who is content with what life has given you, but secretly you want to know how the outside world works.

Your Response is: Stay Calm

You don't have much of a fight or flight response. In fact, you rather do neither. You don't like getting worked up. You are able to approach most threats calmly and rationally. You don't let your emotions get the best of you!

A Great First Day!

Raeleigh's day was great! I think she is a little spoiled :o) She took her nap in the teacher's lap! She played and ate her lunch! She got a sticker in her notebook for a good day and got to visit the "treasure chest" for good behavior! She chose a purple necklace that she has now decided she doesn't like it and wants me to wear for her! I am looking forward to a great school year and can't wait to see how much my big girl learns!!

First Day Pictures!

Here are some pics from this morning before we left and on the way! She went right in and when she saw all the kids she clapped her hands and said, "YAY!"

Today is the day!

My baby starts school in an HOUR!!!! I think I may be sick :( I am so nervous for her and have been praying all night (because I couldn't sleep!) for God to let this go smoothly and for her to LOVE it! I will be taking lots of pictures! I will post them and all about her day tonight!

My Little Tomboy

I forgot I had taken these pictures until I was going through my camera! These are from 2 weeks ago. We went to our Sunday School class' Mexican dinner and everyone brought their kids, too. Raeleigh has nothing but little boys to play with at church and she hangs right with them! We let her play outside and after about 30 minutes she was filthy! Here are some pictures I took when we got her home.

Hair stuck to her head from sweating in the 100 degree weather!


Her bloomers! Of course she was wearing GOOD clothes!!


She looked SO much worse before we left! I did manage to get most of the mud off her legs and arms before we came home. YUCK!
