Where has the time gone?!

Well, It's CHRiSTMAS BREAK for me, folks!
Can you tell I'm just a little excited?!

My maternity leave ended 3 weeks ago. For some reason I thought it would be a good idea to start back to school before Christmas break. What the heck was I thinking?!
I teach first grade. It's my favorite age to teach. I work with some super fun, super sweet ladies & we have kept ourselves BUSY these past 3 weeks. Polar Express Day, Grinch Day (complete with a Who Feast :), Christmas Plays, Christmas Parties, Goodie Day, Tacky Sweater Day, the list goes on & on & ON! Being so busy kept my mind off of my sweet little baby girl ... for a few minutes at least. I know everyone got tired of me calling to check on her, but I can't help it. Who wouldn't miss this little face?
I can't believe how big she is! Justin swears she grows a ton from when he leaves in the morning to when he gets home at night. He's probably right.

She has started smiling ALL the time, now. Everybody loves it, of course. I'm pretty sure she can recognize my & Justin's faces. She spits/drools all the time. I don't know if she's teething or if she just likes to spit :)
At her last doctor's appointment she weighed 11 lbs. 4 oz. and she just started wearing a size 2 in her diapers. Also, she's trying SO hard to roll over! She hasn't done it yet, but I know she will soon.

We took her 3 month pictures. Here are some of them ...


Thank you to Sara Wise for these Ahhh-mazing photos. She's so great!
