It's Been FOREVER!

Lately I've been so busy! I worked full time at the bank this summer...but last Friday was my last day. It was very bitter-sweet! I've worked there for 3 1/2 years. These people (my work family) have seen me through so much: going to college, dating Luke, getting married to Luke, having Brooklyn, ...pretty much everything in the last 3 1/2 years! I will definatly miss them!

I thought I would start going to my school to get ready for student teaching this week, but luckily I got a break and don't start until next week. A whole week off! Just me and Brooklyn! You would think I could have gotten SO. MUCH. DONE! Wrong!!! All I've done is slept!! haha and that is so not like me! I've taken a nap every day (except today because I am refusing one!) and then gone to bed by 9! I don't like being lazy. I prefer to be doing something. But I can only clean my house for so long without getting absolutly. bored. out. of. my. mind!

I did get one thing done this week! I finally scrapbooked!!! I've been wanting to print all the pictures I've taken of Brooklyn to make a cute scrapbook out of it! I wanted to get it all done before the new baby comes...we'll see if I can manage enough creativity by then. I've done 40+ pages and have only really captured the last year of Brooklyn's life. I've got quite a bit more to do but I have to take another break since school is starting...and I have to be in the mood to get anything accomplished.


This is the only page the new baby has yet (I'm getting a jump start on him/her):



Here's Brooklyn's stack:




While I was being creative, I thought I'd get ready for school. Here's my binder for student teaching:


Brooklyn was the only kid to come to our AOL back in July, so she got to eat cookies and got all the attention:



She loves Mommy's glasses! They make her so smart!



She's pretending to be scared of the flash! She's such a ham!
