I'm back - fat and sassy!

This picture is why I love fall and why I love our backyard. How gorgeous! I love to look out on this every day. Unfortunately it doesn't last long. Jenna loves it too and we often will walk around and pick leaves (especially the pretty ones).

Well I'm back after a month long leave of blogging. I've turned in my dissertation so now I have some free time. Hopefully it will be acceptable to my advisor and I can graduate soon. It has been a long 6 years.

Since I have a month to catch up on, I'll be posting pictures often. At the beginning of October we went to my friend's parent's farm. We got to see pigs, donkeys, a combine, and got to experience farm life. Here is a picture of a baby pig with Jenna and Rachel looking on. The kids also posed for a picture in front of the pigs. They are: Rachel, Jenna, Aiden, and Grace. We had a great time at farm day!



In other news:
  1. I found out a few weeks ago that I have gestational diabetes. Now I have to prick my finger 4 times a day and take my blood sugar. I also have to limit sweets. Since I have a MAJOR sweet tooth this has been hard.
  2. Our new semester started and I'm only teaching Tuesday and Thursday nights. yea!! This is a great schedule. I'm also teaching courses I love so I'm happy with this semester :).
  3. The Buckeyes have had an incredible year. We need to teach Jenna "OH" "IO" to be a proper cheerleader.
  4. The Red Sox won the World Series. Yea! My husband might turn me into a Red Sox fan. The last time they won we were pregnant with Jenna. I guess they only win when we are going to have a baby. More babies for us!!!
  5. 54 points on Quiddler today. Not bad considering I lost the Q at the end.
Take my poll please!

The kids POSED for a photograph?!? None of them were even looking at the camera. :)

If you're going to choose between Sarah May and Sarah Noelle, I hope you go with the latter. The first is too close to Sally Mae and I'd have a hard time taking it seriously. :)

Sarah May is pretty close to Sallie Mae, and I might accidentally send her some of my student loan payments. Of course, you might like that. Hmmm...

I did vote for Sarah Noelle, but because I think it sounds more wonderful. :)

Cheryl said...

Sarah Noelle is the one!!! :) I think we are all in agreement. :)

I love the pictures you've posted. Jenna is a sweetie, and we look forward to seeing you again soon.

Did she eat all her Halloween candy?

Bad day - OHS just lost to Illinois :(
