Waving bye-bye

After 10 months at home it is time that I return to my other love, school.  I feel so fortunate to have spent this time at home getting to know Jalen and watching Haley grow as a 3 year- old. This time has been precious and SO special for our family. Jalen will be joining his sister at Peggy's for the best daycare and at almost 7 months old he is ready to start exploring with new friends. We know this new socialization will help develop and before we know it he will be motoring around!

My goal for this year is to be PRESENT. When I am at school I want to focus on being there and supporting my students and when I am home, I hope to focus on our family and let go of my "teacher hat". I know this will be challenging.

This labor day weekend our family is going to eat up every moment of sunlight and maybe even a few moments of moonlight :)

I love my chair, someday my feet might touch the ground!!

I wish this stroller had a speedometer, curious how many miles we logged...

Occasionally Dunken gets some lovin' too!

We have possibly hit all the playgrounds in Rochester this summer!

Haley was a flower girl in her Aunt Pookie (Leanne's) wedding.

Congrats to Leanne and Mark!

Our cute ring bearer!

Hanging with Gramma B.

Someone should tell her she doesn't start school for two more years!!

After a very long day/night!!
