Kim's Little Snippets

This blog is about the ups and downs of being a wife, mother, teacher and all of the other roles that women have these days. In memory of my nephew, Barry Rabon- 9/18/92- 11/11/07

Break

I think that I need to give myself permission to take a break from blogging for a bit. I am about to return to work a week from this coming Monday (April 27th). My life is going to be jam packed from that point until June 2nd. I know that I will not have the time or energy to commit to jotting my thoughts down. I have mixed feelings about returning to school. I love the children and I am an absolute control freak when it comes to my class, so I am definitely ready to have "my" class back. BUT, the baby is not taking a bottle. We have been trying for weeks now, and it's just not working. I'm getting a little stressed about this, but I'm trying to trust that God is going to work this out for these last 5 weeks of school. I hope and pray there won't be too many tears shed (from Andrew or me) over this bottle. The baby is doing great and gaining weight much like his older brother did. I'm grateful for the time that I have had to bond with this precious baby boy. He is definitely a "momma's boy". I will post pictures whenever I come back on to this site, but I can't promise how long my little hiatus is going to last.

Forgetting

I keep forgetting to write these days. My days are filled with taking care of this new baby and trying to keep the house half way decent looking. This week seems to be going a little bit smoother. The baby is sleeping fairly well at night (7 hours last night:-), and he went to the ballfield for the first time the other night. Josh scored the first run in the game and then at the end, he scored the winning run. It was a good game and I was able to watch a little bit (had to leave to feed and change the baby).

I still have until the end of this month for maternity leave. I will go back when Andrew is about 9 weeks old. Keep me in your prayers. I love my children at school- I just hope the pumping works out. That's all for now.
