The First 10 of the Summer

1. The crib is finally up. Though the casters don't fit, so I need to call the manufacturer and hopefully get new ones. Without them, the crib is a little bit short.

2. Got my new teaching certificate yesterday...I'm official and no longer an "intern" teacher.

3. Had an OB appointment today. All is good with baby Benaim. Just a few more weeks to go.

4. Feeling huge, even though everyone says I'm small for almost 37 weeks.

5. Enjoyed some lemon pancakes for breakfast today with Michelle. Yum!

6. Looking forward to our 5th anniversary on Thursday.

7. Got new pj's, new curtains (to replace the ones the dry cleaner ruined) and a polka dot nursing bra at Target today.

8. Purchased this print from John Golden's etsy store for the baby's room today. Hooray for coupon codes!


9. Spending a lot of time pinning recipes on my pinterest food board, yet we ordered pizza tonight because I didn't feel like cooking. Well, really because I didn't feel like grocery shopping and pickings are slim around here unless you want cereal, popsicles or cheese.

10. Not thrilled about the heat wave around here. Supposed to be 111 or something ridiculous tomorrow. While I'm loving many things about summer, the heat is definitely not one of them. Late pregnancy and heat are not a good pair, unless my giant belly is floating in a pool.

Happy first day of summer!

These Days

She cooks when she's motivated. She tried a couple new recipes this week from her growing collection on pinterest. Early this week she made this:


Both were easy and quite tasty.

She writes a million and five thank you notes for all the wonderful baby goods she's received.

She learns about Core Knowledge (3 day training last week) and DIBELS (I voluntarily signed up for this training happening on Wednesday, I'm crazy I know).

She waits impatiently for her husband to take care of a few things so she can work on the baby's room.

She worries about getting her to do list done before the little one arrives.

She wastes a lot of time playing Words With Friends and surfing blogs and pinterest.

She works on finishing her last class for her teaching certificate and her portfolio for grad school.

She scraps and takes bad photos of her layouts:




She is grateful to have more time on her hands so she can rest and relax a bit.
