First Day of School

We just finished our 2nd week of school.  This year was especiallly great because Landrie and Karsyn are back at the same school and Karsyn started Kindergarten!!! 

Landrie ~  My Beautiful 2nd Grader! 

Karsyn ~ My Precious Kindergartener

Sweet, sweet sisters!  They choose to dress alike for the first day, but haven't ever since.  A little sad for Mommy.

Mommy and her pretty girls ~ Starting my 8th year of teaching

Beautiful girl ready to go in her class!  She had a great first day and first 2 weeks.  2nd grade is much more challenging than K and 1st, but she's doing so well!  She had 3 tests yesterday and I'm sure she aced them all!

Sweet K ready for her class!  She loves going to school and has adjusted so well.  She's made several new friends and already has a little boy with a crush on her!  He said she was beautiful and that he was in love with her! Haha!!! 

Life is good!  We've had 2 good weeks at school, 2 awesome football games and we are all adjusting to our routines well.  Things should be smooth sailing from here...until brother comes along in 15 weeks!  It will be an adjustment that we all can't wait to make! :)

24 Week Update

I'm a little late with this post since I'll be 25 weeks tomorrow, but that's the way things go...

24 Week Update


Baby Size: Almost a foot long and 1 lb.

My size/weight gain: I've now officially gained 3 pounds since my first appointment in May.

Clothes:

I bought 2 pairs of maternity pants from Target, but I'm still wearing a lot of regular clothes.  All of my shirts are non-maternity and I love wearing dresses and leggings. 
Cravings:

No cravings, but no aversions either.  I like ice cream, but it doesn't agree with me most of the time.

Symptoms:

I'm beginning to be uncomfortable at night and still have a long way to go. I have RAGING heartburn almost all day long.  It's extremely annoying!  Thankfully, the doctor says I can take the maximum dose of meds each day.  Morning/All Day Sickness has been much better! I still get sick once or twice a week, but not every day like with the girls.  Thank goodness!

Sleep:

I'm sleeping pretty good as long as I take Benadryl which helps my allergies too!
Stories to not forget:

Going back to school has been really good!  My students are all really funny and ask questions from time to time.  One class has 25 boys and 4 girls, so that will definitely be interesting!
