i miss blogging...

i have really been missing this here blog, and finally decided since it has sat empty for a LONG time i would just change the direction of it and go with turning it into my little family blog...the title will only fit for a few more weeks since my little lady will be heading off to kindergarten...so sad!
one of my most favorite blogs has a series called blogging with a purpose.  so i thought i would kick off my reblog with linking up with from mrs. to mama.

If I Could be Anything in the World...

Most people have HUGE dreams of what they want to be when they grow up (like my Natalie) but me on the other hand not so much.  From the time I can remember I wanted to be a mom and a teacher which both came true.  I remember even thinking I will probaly just get married right after highschool and have babies...well highschool was almost over and I didn't even have a boyfriend (socially akward) I decided I better make college plans. So I headed off to college where I started to pursue my second dream of teaching.  
Now here I am a mommy to 3 and a preschool teacher, and I wouldn't have it any other way!  

now go link up and share what you would be over at

first day of school

I am finally blogging about our first day of school!

i packed our bags the night before and had them laid out and ready to go!  
for a mom who hasn't been to "work" in 4 years i thought this was very necessary!
i will also say we were ready by 7:38am and i didn't need to leave for work until 8:15!!

Natalie's first day of Pre-K!  
she was beyond excited and has been enjoying every single day!!  
on saturday while we were just lounging around she suddenly said 
"mom we gotta get a move on, we don't want to miss school!"

little brother need a picture to!
especially since this was going to be his first day at daycare!
he didn't even notice the first day when i walked out the door!
since then he has cried and screamed but always stopped within minutes of me walking out the door!

it was a big day for me as well!  so as much as i don't enjoy being in the photos i had to document my first day of school as well!
it was a good first day and a successful first week!  
i am fully enjoying the job and slowly learning how to manage my time!
i am also 21 weeks in the picture! this pregnancy is flying by!


and of course i forced daddy to be in the picture as well! :)
