Return to work

This has been a busy week, and I've only worked 2 days! Our county took a mandated "furlough" day on Monday, one of 3 we have to take by the end of the year per our beloved Governor. I wonder if he is taking a furlough day....

Any-hoo, I have moved up in the teaching world and have my own trailer this year. I had no idea it was so hard to move! Not only did I have to move my stuff in, I had to move other stuff out! My back is killing me! I'm not even close to being ready for the first day on Monday. Between meetings and getting my room ready, I haven't had time to prepare any lessons to teach. I'm also the head of my department (Title I) so there's a lot that I have to do and people I need to assist. The whole school knows I'm pregnant now too. I wasn't planning on making the announcement at a faculty meeting, but a co-worker did it for me! I'm not sure how I should feel about that!

Little Pecan is starting to move about now. For the past few weeks I have felt her move when I lay down to rest. Now I feel her even if I am moving about. I remember it took a lot longer to feel Chasen move, but I think with the second kid everything happens a lot sooner. I'm glad for that. Feeling her move around is really fun. Of course, I'm saying "her". We will find out next week for sure if it's a girl. If it's not we are in a lot of trouble! I've already been shopping for girl's clothes!

Make sure you check out http://www.justinandjacinda.com/ and look at Justin's blog. He made the coolest video of Chasen playing with his birthday gifts. He said there's more to come too! His blog is now ALMOST as cool as mine! Ha ha!
