Well it certainly has been a while. Let's do a life update first. Joel and I celebrated our 1 year anniversary with a FABULOUS weekend at Belamere Suites. :) We had a fantastic time and were able to re-connect, of which we have been in desperate need! It gave me the idea that we should have a date-night every month. Hopefully that is not being too selfish, but we have a hard time finding adult time and end up bickering at each other all the time...which is uber bad. :( So, in the long run, though we will be without the baby once a month...it will be best for everyone. :) I hope. Ella turns 8 months tomorrow!! My goodness...where has the time gone?? As of Friday, I am down 21.4 pounds since January 2nd. Not as much as I would like to be down, but definitely progress!! More workouts, less chocolate. ugh. :(
School has been very interesting as well. One of my amazing adventurous kiddos has decided to be a runner. Wonderful. Good thing I am asking for more workouts. LOL. Speaking of that, we will be starting the kiddo work-out tapes I bought this week...woo!!! I am excited :). Lots of fun stuff going on this week...Leap Day, Dr. Suess Birthday, and one of my aide's birthdays. Too many activities and not enough time!!
So, I have noticed many kiddos not focusing very well during Calendar time anymore. I understand a bit...its the same everyday so the routine gets dull. I am not ready to take anything out or add anything in so I have decided to make a journal page...something to help them stay focused and keep them involved in every step. Since I got the inspiration from others, I figured it would only be nice if I shared it with you for FREE. :) You can find it here.
Alright, time to be a bit more productive....Maybe with another workout. :D
