Lots of things are happening in the Mason household! We've sold our house and bought a new one. I hope everything goes smoothly this time. So far, so good. only problem with it so far is we're set to close August 22. Yep, that's right teacher friends, THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!!!
Speaking of school, you are looking at Rhea Elementary's newest 2nd grade teacher. I am so excited to start my new job. I'm really hoping a change in pace will renew my love for teaching. I'm sad to leave my friends at Blackburn and sad to leave the Dual Language program, but I'm sure it won't be long until I can get back in!
As for the other change, I'm sure you all know, we're adding to our family!! We are so excited to welcome a little brother or sister for Kinsey. She's still oblivious to the idea even though we tell her daily that we're having a baby and she's going to be a big sister. She shakes her head "no" whenever we ask her if she's going to be a good big sister. Ha!
And while we're on Kinsey . . . my little munchkin is growing up so quickly!! She's 18 months and little miss INDEPENDENT! She doesn't like to be in her stroller or the grocery cart. She now prefers to walk, make that RUN, all over the place. I never thought I would be one of "those moms", but we've busted out the backpack leash that we got as a shower gift. I promise not to abuse it and drag her through stores!! :) Anyway, Kinsey is talking up a storm these days! Her vocabulary list grows daily! Luckily, we keep it pretty clean here, so no embarrassing repeats! She loves "Melmo" (Elmo) and Winnie the Pooh. I took her to see the Pooh movie and she did really well. We ate some junk and she stayed pretty still until the last 5 minutes or so. She is a friendly little girl so I know she's looking forward to going back to daycare. I, on the other hand, am going to miss her so much! Who am I going to share my push-pops with??? Oh yeah, my life is about to get so crazy, I probably won't have time for them! Maybe we can sneak one in after dinner!!
