WOW! Where has the time gone?!?

I cannot believe that it has been almost two months since I last wrote a post. This year seems to be flying by...I mean it is almost December! It seems like just yesterday we were ringing in the new year with the CATS win over East Carolina. The school year is also going by way to fast. I feel very unprepared to leave my students for almost two months, but the time is getting near.
Speaking of school if you have heard already I received my scores for National Boards Certification. I PASSED!!! I knew I had put in a lot of work on the portfolio, but I also did well on the six essay tests which is a feat because I am not a good test taker. I am very proud and excited that I have accomplished such a hard task. It has been worthwhile.
The baby is growing well. I have to have blood work done on Wednesday morning (standard) to check my glucose levels. We have not completely decided on a name, but have a couple options narrowed down. I am getting to the point where I am tired again. I find myself out of breath at times and tying my shoes is becoming a chore. Stad will love having to get up at 6AM to tie them for me in the next couple of weeks. ;0) Over fall break we got the baby room painted and the crib put together. There is still a lot to do between now and the end of January, but I am anxious to meet my baby. The new questions are: "Wonder what he will look like?" "Will he be healthy?" "Will I be strong enough to make it through delivery?" (or better yet..."Will Stad stay upright or pass out?")
I hope all of you are doing well. I can't wait for the holidays to see everyone. I will try to post more often in the next few weeks. Until next time...I wish you well!
