1. 8th grade graduation- went smoothly. We were in, out, done! No tears, all smiles. I don't think a single teacher on the team was sad to see this group of kids go.
2. Speaking of graduation...we do a slide show every year and it's really fun
to watch. This year the picture of me as a dinosaur made the cut. It's my profile picture, but I'll post it here so you can get the full effect. The kids started cracking up when it came on. I got more laughs than some of the kid shots! It was great! The funniest part was that I orignally took the picture for my brother Billy because I figured he'd laugh...and go figure, he's going to be an 8th grader....3. Field Day- Today spent the day outside in 80 degree humid temps with the sun blaring down on us the ENTIRE time. It was awful! I'm so drained physically and mentally AND I have sunburn. Most of the day was spent talking to other teachers on my team about how much we wanted the day over with.
4. Maggie has started the annoying habit of PEEING on our bed. She's done it twice in the last two weeks. We had to laundromat TWO comforters. She's been banned from the bedroom when we are not home.
5. Negative Nancy....I just can't help thinking this month isn't going to work either.....grrrrrr....enough on that.
6. Procrastinating is bad. I still have to get prizes for my sister-in-law's baby shower. Any suggestions?

interesting blog - nice that you covered lots of topics! Be positive on the baby front - we need a happy environment for the potential erdahl! :)
Good luck on the baby front!! Think positive! It will happen for you, you will be a great mom!
Prizes for a baby shower??? Teddy bears? I dunno....havn't had to plan one of those yet.... good luck.
Sounds like you have been up to nothing but fun! :-p
Baby shower favors... what's the theme if there is one? You could do something about the start of life: flower packets in a ceramic pot, flowers to plant that are already in bloom (could double as table decor.), tree seedlings... or you could do magnetic picture frames for everyone (girl or boy or even neutral)... just some thoughts.
I had thought of the magnetic frames. I need three prizes for the three games we're playing.....hmmmm....I had thought of the flowers and maybe I'll do the potted flower thing. Could put a cute little card in there about watching the flowers grow as Baby Erdahl does.
I'm so happy for you that the school year is over and that you will be rid of this year's devil children. Can your principal legally give out your home number if you don't want him to?
On the baby shower gifts, you could have the grand prize be one of my CDs. :-) (I'm into shamelessly pugging myself of late)
