New News

The last couple of weeks have been really busy for us!

I guess the biggest news is that we moved...not far...just a 1/2 mile. The new apartment is just a little bit bigger and a little closer to ASU, and just all around a little more comfortable. Matt and I are pretty excited about the dishwasher. We had a ceremonial first dish load...It was pretty awesome! I must say though, I did shed some tears when we moved. Handing over the keys was harder than I thought it would be. Our first apartment had so many good memories attached to it!

Secondly, The hermit crab that I just barely blogged about....died. It was horrible. Matt and I found him out of his shell and well...dead... when we went to set up my classroom on Labor day. I had mixed emotions about it. On one hand I just felt awful because I was the one who was suppose to make sure all of his needs were met and I failed despite all my efforts. But on the other hand, it makes me so mad that I put so much effort into making him as comfortable as possible and he STILL died. There is still one that's alive. hopefully that one will make it.

I had my 34 week prenatal appointment and everything is going well. Baby is growing and is healthy. The doctor says that my pregnancy (up to this point) is nothing but "text book". I'm pretty happy with that! Only 5 more weeks come Sunday!
This is a picture of me today...This little girl is a student of mine and everyday she gives the baby a hug just like this. It's too cute! Don't look too close to my classroom. Of course we had to choose the messiest place and time to take the picture....by the counter at the end of the day. I promise it usually doesn't look like that! All of my student's are really excited for the baby to come and say the funniest things when it comes to how big my belly is getting!
