My Day: A Play by Play..

I thought I would do a ‘Day in the Life Of’ today. I feel like I’m constantly in the car running up and down the road these days. Such is the life of a mother, I guess.

This is a riveting post, let me warn you. ;)    But I do enjoy looking back on the posts.

My day started with my 6:00 alarm clock and was followed by getting ready for the day~ shower, dressed, hair, makeup, Daniel up, breakfast, packing lunches, rushing Daniel out of the door, etc., etc.

I head into work around 8:00My day was full of short vowels and listening to reading. J Over and over. I have to say I love it, though!!

I headed home for lunch and then over to the preschool to pick up Luke. We ran by the church to see Dan real quick and Dan gave Luke a balloon.

It became his toy of the day. He was into that balloon!

We chilled at the house for about 45 minutes before we got back in the car and went to pick up D3.

We came home for the kids to grab a quick snack and then headed to Sam’s for our monthly Sam’s run.

Grocery shopping with two kids is really just not tons of fun. Thank goodness for all the samples today, though! They took advantage of them.

We came home and I put up the food and Daniel got ready for Karate.

He’s doing great with Karate. He’s an orange belt {the only orange belt standing up in the picture} and he gets to do so much more, so he is really into it.

After Karate, we came home and D3 {&Luke} did homework while I cooked dinner.

I made a little drawer full of things that Luke could do during homework time. He’s done great sitting with Daniel every day and working on different things from his homework box.

Ignore the boxes in the background. My parents gave us some dishes and I’ve yet to unpack them all. <hangs head in shame.>

We ate dinner, the boys cleaned up toys, got clean, got in pajamas, brushed teeth, had story time and went to sleep!

I cleaned the kitchen and then watched Big Brother <hangs head in shame again. J>

I think I might watch another show with my hubby and then go to sleep!

Such is a day in my life…

My Newest Adventure…

I made the decision this past May that I wasn’t going to return to the preschool this fall. It was a hard call for me, because I LOVED the job so much. I have been searching for a full time teaching position for about a year and a half now and they are hard to come by! I decided to be a full time substitute teacher this school year.

Fortunately right at the beginning of the school year, I interviewed for a job as a Reading teacher and got the job! It is part time, but works out great with Luke’s preschool schedule and gets me on staff at a Primary School. I started last Monday and have thoroughly enjoyed my first week. It’s a fun challenge coming up with ways to help 2nd graders learn to become better readers. It’s just a bit different than teaching preschoolers. J

I spent the week before I started collecting things for my new job and trying to set up my room. I have a small room with no windows. I was completely spoiled at the preschool with three huge windows, so my room is a bit dark.

I still think the room turned out pretty cute! Excuse my messy table.

My super sweet hubby brought me flowers on the first day with the kids. He wanted to get something really colorful, because my room was quite neutral before I got a hold of it. J

I’m really hoping to get on a better blogging schedule now. How many times have I said that recently? Hopefully this is it! My poor little bloggy still thinks it’s Spring! I’m waiting on Fall for a change though, because I am so over summer!!! No more 100 degree temps please. J
