News of the Day

Let's see what news I can tell you about Natalie.

1. I subbed today and she stayed home with daddy. She did a good job. She had a funny brown spot by her collar and I thought she had banana that dried there. Ryan said nope, she found a clump of dirt (presumably from Drake's foot) and ate it!!!!! The spot was dirt drool! Yuck...

2. Not interested in jarred meat. I have to admit it does smell a bit like cat food. We tried turkey. She had 2 bites just fine. The third spoonful just kind of rolled out of her mouth onto her bib. The fourth bite she gagged and started dry heaving. No more meat!!!

3. She managed somehow to wake up at 8, take a 40 minute nap from 10:20-11:00. Then was up until 5:30 when she finally passed out on the way home from the outlet mall. Luckily it only lasted 30 min and she was back in bed by 7:45.

In other Windle news, Ryan took the written firefighter exam for Newport News, he'll know tomorrow whether he passed or not. I was nervous to sub, but actually ended up enjoying it (no planning, no parents, no working late). All in all we are doing well!

That sounds exciting! I'm sure after teaching full time, it's nice to have a job that you don't have to take home with you... That's certainly something I enjoy about my job... No late night phone calls about cash drawers 'n such!

I wish I could just sub! I have had IEP meetings daily for 3 straight weeks!

I didn't know Ryan was taking a firefighter exam. What's going on with that?
