27 More Days!!!

Wow, this semester is flying! As the title indicates, I have only 27 more days of work until summer break-and three of those are half days with students!!!! The down side, I need to figure out where I will be working this summer. Justin has survived another round of tests and has started preparing for finals.



I think our family is finally on the road to health, again. Julia and I both have residual coughs but no more fevers. Justin's arm (seen in this picture) is also healing. The four puncture wounds are from our darling Satchmo. I accept the blame for that one. I spilled orange juice on him last Sunday (we were home sick from church). We decided to give Satchmo a bath-something we've done many times before. This time, he completely freaked out (his shrieking and crying were matched by Julia's). And he chomped on Justin's arm. I had to literally pry Satchmo's mouth open. Justin's arm was infected by Monday morning. $350 later, I'm not entirely sure why we (including Justin) still love Satchmo.




Easter was wonderful for my family. We had an Easter egg hunt before going to church with my parents. I'm not sure which Julia was more excited about-wearing her "eetiful" dress (flower girl dress) or seeing her new Aunt Abbey. Justin's dad was able to join us for Easter dinner at my parents' house (he happened to be driving through the area). Julia had another Easter egg hunt at my parents' house and gifts from Grandpa Mike. With the hunt at day care, that's three! She dyed the eggs at day care as well.



This last picture is Julia checking on her plants-three sunflower and three pumpkin. I have since killed them because they grew too big for their containers and I didn't get them repotted soon enough. But don't worry, I have already started replacements!



Anyway, hope you all are doing well! Life is starting to slow down, so I will post again soon.

Ouch, Justin! I would say the kittie did not want a bath that day. See ya later!

Hmmm... "Cashew Kitty" comes to mind, but no, that's just too mean. Hope you all continue to get better. Sorry I'm slow & just catching up, but congrats on your acceptance too! I'm adding you to my bloglines so hopefully I'll keep up better when you post next.
