The Sun is Out....Time to Wake Up!!!

Abby was waking up at all times of the night so we told her that she can't get out of bed before the sun comes out. Now almost every morning I hear "The sun is out....it's time to wake up, Mommy!" Even though I want to sleep a little longer, it's so sweet to hear those words in the morning.

So much has been going on the past few months. I had every intention of using this blog to keep track of our family and I ended up neglecting it for months at a time.

We found out on May 31st that we are pregnant with our second child. The baby is due February 8, 2012. Morning sickness took over my summer months and made it difficult to think about much else. We found out in July that Bryan's (Jeremy's older brother) Leukemia had returned and the outlook wasn't very good. We had family pictures taken later that month with Jeremy's family.

School started in August and I have to say I have a pretty good class this year. There are a lot of challenges this year due to a new evaluation process and a few difficult families, but overall I'm expecting a productive year.

Bryan ended up passing away on Monday, September 19th. It was a little sudden, but luckily he didn't suffer much. We spent a week in Indiana for his funeral. Our halfway ultrasound was also that Monday. Baby is growing well and we didn't find out what we are expecting.

In October we spent a day at the zoo and had a really great time. Abby really enjoyed the flamingos and kept trying to stand on one leg like them. There were turtles fighting and she got very concerned with them, also.

We are busy preparing for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and the New Arrival in a few months.
