It's been three weeks..

I can't believe I have been working for three weeks and still this job is perfect! I can nurse baby girl whenever I need to. I get to see little man all the time and I get paid for it! I love my class and though its been crazy start, we are finally getting the hang of it! I'm so excited to be back to lesson planning. I'll start posting some up when I get more time. But for now hope all teachers are having lots of fun!!

I'm getting organized...

Wow, is all I can say after this crazy crazy week. I'm so sad to see our summer coming to a close, but I'm excited to what the future holds. Next week is when little man starts school, and though I thought that it would only be little man's first day of school, it has become little man's, baby girl's and mine. We will all be attending the same school! I got a job!! Wow, that seems so weird to say. I haven't worked outside of my house in 4 years. The only reason I took this job is because it is perfect! I will be a preschool teacher and both of the kids will be in the same building with me, so far they say they have no problem with me stepping out and nursing baby girl, for part of the day I will have both of them in my class, and to top it off its FREE for them.

Party Time!!

Little Man is turning 4!! OH MY!! Turning 4 and starting VPK..I can hardly believe how time has flown by.  But anyways, we have been preparing and preparing for his PARTYYYY!!! Of course little man picked a theme that is very hard to find and really doesn't exist to his specifications, luckily he has one cool graphic designer daddy and one creative mommy and cousin (Titi). With the help of photoshop, we made customized invites and printed them at CVS, where I got 25 free and the rest were $.19 each. For the centerpieces, we used characters printed out and then we flipped them and printed them out again so that we could glue them double sided. We insterted a skewer in between both pictures and stood them up in the baskets.

How to make centerpiece baskets:

What will you need:
Glue stick
Characters of your choice
Skewers
Pool noodle
Baskets
Shredded paper in the color of your choice

Directions:
Cut pool noodle to size of basket bottom.
Print characters. Then flip characters and print again. Cut out characters. Put glue on one side then put skewer then place the flipped version of the character on top. Stick in pool noddle, so that the character is standing up.Add shredded color paper on top to hide the noodle.

We also made custom candy bags by adding a sticker label.
