Hey Everyone,
School is back in and going well so far. I have a great class and really enjoy being around my students. Kate has settled in to her routine and is getting the hang of all the Montessori routines. Maddox has done well at Katelan's and is so happy to see me in the afternoons, which makes me sooooooooooooooo HAPPPPY!!! He is talking 5 or 6 steps at a time now and I can hardly believe it. This time last year I was still pregnant with him and now he is walking :) I love him so much and feel so blessed that GOD gave us a little boy to love. When I was pregnant and didn't know what we were having, I really wanted another girl but GOD doesn't make any mistakes. Having a boy is so incredible and I feel honored to be his mama!!! Kate is a joy in herself and I wonder every day what in the world I did to deserve such amazing chidren. I LOVE MY BABIES!!!
Today is Labor Day, so NO SCHOOL. We are just hanging out enjoying the wonderful weather. It was beautiful this weekend, highs in the upper 70s!!! We had our 10 year class reunion on Saturday night and it was a lot of fun to see people that we don't see very often or haven't seen since graduation. Kate spent the night with Maw and Paw and Maddox spent the night with Grana and Papa. They both had a good time, but I was so happy to see them on Sunday morning.
I am still eating a lot of chicken and running almost every day. I have lost 25 pounds so far and I feel GREAT. I can wear so many of my clothes and it feels great to try on clothes again. I would like to lose another 15 or so pounds and then I would be done.
Well I think I hear Maddox waking from his nap. Until next time America!!!
Hayley
