Waiting for the School Bus!

It is the little things in life! Every morning Owen hops up on the bench and waits patiently for the school bus to come by. His birthday is coming up and was trying to find some truck videos for toddlers. I came across a few below. Let me know if you know of any other ideas!

This is one that I came across. They also have other DVDs that they make.

Time

Where does the time go? I have been enjoying my time back in the classroom and have a fantastic group of students that I get to see each and every day. Time...well, it simply has not been put into this blog. As I am gearing up for summer plans, the excitement is starting to build on how I get to use my time away from work. I'm looking forward to soaking up all the adventures with my family and friends. I am in planning mode, so stay tuned to all kinds of fun activities you can do with your kids!

Happy Birthday Owen!

So many changes in one year! The one thing that doesn't change is the smile that is on his face all the time! Happy 1st Birthday Owen!

Check out this fun give away!

Shelley, from the blog Crazy Wonderful has a fun giveaway that she is doing!  Check out the fun burlap clutch that she makes!

Little Guy

Our little guy will be turning 1 tomorrow and have been looking for some adorable ties for him.  I came across this great shop on Etsy that has some fun designs to work with.  How cute is this one!
