Big Changes!

It's been forever since I've blogged and I know I've been slacking. Life has changed a lot in our house in the last few months.

At the end of July, I was offered a position to be a First Grade Dual Language teacher at the school I taught at last year. It's been quite the adventure- the 6 year olds have a ton of energy and I must collaborate very closely with my teaching partner (who teaches in Spanish)

Then, in early August I found out that I am pregnant and that we'll be welcoming our new baby in April 2012. We are very excited to begin this chapter of our lives.

So, for the past 3 months- I've just been working, sleeping, and barfing... my morning sickness is pretty bad but I'm thinking it's about to pass (I'm 14w). I hope so because it's wearing me out. I haven't cooked a meal since early August and finally have my appetite back (as of yesterday, let's hope it lasts).

The next 6 months are sure to be busy and I'm very excited.
In October, we're visiting Penn State for a football game. We haven't been back since we moved to Oregon. I'm excited about PSU memories, good food, and seeing some family.
In November, I'm flying to LA for a girl's weekend- I'm really looking forward to this! I love hanging out with Jordan and Mel!
December we're heading back to PA for a wedding and my birthday. I think we're celebrating my bday in NYC with a Broadway show- one of my favorite things to do in the city. We'll also see our family before the holidays and eat a lot of food
January- possibly a baby shower in PA (TBA it might be early Feb, depending)
February- BabyMoon in San Diego- can't wait
March- nesting
April- Babelet arrives!

just a heads up- my posts will probably become more family related because that is where life is taking me but of course it will still be about my adventures in life, cooking, and travel- just with the extra challenges of a babelet.
Hopefully I'll get better about posting!
adios!

I used to teach kindergarten....very challenging! I can't imagine with how tired I felt first trimester doing it...so good job! Now its second trimester, I feel tons better...I hope you do too!
