Last Day of Summer...

Yup, that's right...today is the last day of summer. But you know what, I'm okay with it! :)

I love my job!

I will miss staying in pjs all day if I want, snuggling with the Mr. and pups, lunch dates, the beach, staying up late, working out when I want, and just doing summer stuff.

We've had a wonderful summer! Really wonderful...the baby news was the best part! :)

Going back to work isn't bad at all...and I actually like being on a schedule. So, here it goes...another summer in the books!

Where's Fall?

In the past couple of years I've realized that fall is my FAVORITE season.

Well, I'm yearning for fall soo bad. For a couple of reasons:

  • I'm sick of the heat. period.
  • candy corn
  • I'm ready for college football season! WAR EAGLE!
  • I want to carve a pumpkin.
  • I'm ready to wear cute dresses with boots.
  • I want to do fall themed things with my students.
  • And I'm ready to enjoy all the fun fall activities that happen every fall!
I know, I have a good two months before it even feels like fall in good ol' Georgia!
 But I'm ready!

DA BAHAMAS!

Our summer vacay was last week and it was awesome! We headed back to the Bahamas! This time we went to a small island called Bimini...it's only 9 miles and only 1600 people live on the island. But there is a wonderful resort that we stayed at.
 Just getting into Bimini! Yes, I have a bug thing on...ha!




 My MIL's camera sometimes gets a black spot...so please ignore!





 We rented a boat one day and went over to Cat Cay...it's an exclusive island that you have to be a memeber of to stay...we just had lunch! :)




 Baby Hammar in the Bahamas at 11 weeks!





It was a wonderful trip! Can't wait for the next one! Thanks to my wonderful in-laws for a great vacation!

Week by Week! (So far!)

So like many others, I'm taking the weekly pictures to capture how my tummy grows over the next 9  months!
I'll start a weekly pregnancy post and include the pictures. But since it was our sweet little secret I'll give you the last few weeks!










Not sure that there is much difference in the tummy...just the face...looking even more tired each week! ha!
