What a fast summer and what a busy week. I spent the first part of the week getting my classroom ready for yet another school year. It is hard to believe that this will be my 6th year to teach, my very first class will be 7th graders next year. I think that is just crazy!
At the end of last school year I had to take down my whole room. Our school was getting a fresh coat of paint. So to say the least, I had my work cut out for me. Walking into my classroom with white walls, 8 plus months pregnant, a 21 month old helper, my Mom and no air conditioning = a LOT of work to be done. I had taken the time to have it all organized as I pulled it off the walls at the end of the year and I had a plan of where I wanted everything to go. My husband had gone up with me the week before one night and moved all my furniture. (that was a big help) My Mom and I got to work right away first thing Monday morning and then Tuesday morning. We got lots done and Katie Lynn played with all my Kindergarten stuff. It worked out pretty well. My walls are up and my sub will be able to walk in and teach if I don’t make the first of school.
Here is my room and I am very pleased with my calendar wall!!!

This is where Katie Lynn spent most of her time, playing in the kitchen area.

Library area and the kids storage spots.
I still have a little bit of work to do but I am glad that hard part of putting everything up is over. It was really nice of my Mom to come out and help, she did a lot of the hard work on getting up on the ladder and hanging all my butcher paper and higher things. Since I am “not” allowed to climb it was great for her to do it for me. Thanks MOM!!!!

Here is to another first week back at work. It is hard to believe that this will be my 5th year to teach. Where has the time gone?
Once again, my wonderful husband surprised me with flowers. It took me till last year (http://www.thesepperfamily.com/2007/09/02/wow-flowers/) to realize that he sent me flowers the first day of school since I started teaching. I know, I know. It is a nice surprise and this year was nothing less.
I got a call on Monday afternoon letting me know that I had flowers in the office. I was very excited and knew that they were from Tom. I went to get my flowers and to read my note. To my surprise, not only were the flowers from my wonderful husband but they were also from my beautiful daughter. I am so lucky!
Thank you to my wonderful husband for thinking of me on my first day of school and thank you to my beautiful daughter for helping daddy pick out the most gorgeous flowers yet. I love you both sooooo much!!!!

What a week. So much is going on and we can’t believe that summer has come to an end…where did the time go?
This week was my first week back to work, aka, working in my room and sitting through new orientation things. I am really excited about this up coming school year and look forward to my new school.
Tom is at work, as normal.
Katie Lynn went to her first week of Day Care at her new school. She had a great first week and seems to really like the school. We are very excited about the school and can tell she loves it there. This is the most important thing. She has done all kinds of things this week. She made a new friend, they play on the play mat together. She finger painted a brown monkey and her teachers can’t seem to say enough about how happy she is. They have something planned every week and she is learning things. Very exciting, we feel this is more of a learning enviorment and not so much as just baby sitting.
On the crawling front…not just yet but she is getting closer everyday. She is really getting the hang of reaching and pulling. So much fun!!!
Here are some photos of her in her Lady Bug outfit with a matching bow for our Katie Bug.
She wants to crawl so badly……soon
Bows can be bought from Andi (http://www.thebow-dandthebeautiful.com/) I sure do miss my Babineaux’s!!!
