Another week....

has passed me by.  I swear, I don't know where the time goes.  Gage will be 17 months old on Thursday and we have been busy busy.  Or maybe, I've just been busy.  This is the time of year that, as teachers, we start to lose our minds.  It's getting crunch time and kids are worried they might not graduate.  I feel like I'm putting 50+ hours at school a week, even though it's not quite that much.  Rather I'm trying to do 50 hours worth of work in 45. 

In addition to being busy with my job, Gage is the busiest little bee himself these days.  He absoutely cannot stand to be in the house playing with his toys for more than a half hour.  He wants to be 'outsigh' ALL the time.  He pitches full on fits every morning when I put him in the car and every afternoon when we get out of the car, because he wants to get down and play.  He LOVES his wagon rides and his sidewalk chalk and to feel the wind blow through his hair.  I don't even think he'd mind being outside when it was 40 degrees.

Unfortunately the wind has been pretty crazy this week to the point we couldn't even go outside for three days.  We managed to play inside a few days, with the help of DJ Lance and then one day we went on a few errands.  Today was rainy and gloomy and NOT at all a day to be outside and I'm sorry to say it exhausts me!  I cannot wait until the weather is nice enough to go outside every day and to give Gage lots of new experiences.  There's about 10 week until I can send every day with my sweet little man and I thank God every day that I have that opportunity.

As for the weekend, I have a few plans to catch up with friends, and we're going to try to hit up the zoo Sunday morning.  We have SO much we need to do around the house and it seems impossible some days with a toddler.  But we're counting down 'til the 16th when Spring Break officially starts and we are Wilmington bound!

Have a great weekend!
