12 Weeks: Butterfly

This little girl is the life of the party.  My little social butterfly kept very busy this week.  We spent a lot of time together at home cleaning, dancing, singing, playing the piano, playing with toys, and of course watching Mickey!  Life as a stay at home mom is great for now, but is not something I hope to pursue a career in!  I love being around my little girl all day long and watching her learn new things and grow, but I miss my job and my friends and the community you form with teaching.  I have signed up to take my PA Praxis, after a long application process, on December 18th.  I'm not sure how long scores will take to process and then my teaching license to be processed but I hope to start subbing in January.  Getting out into some of the school districts to see where I would like to apply next year.  That's the plan for now.  :)

Millie had lots of first this week, of course!

First time carving a pumpkin.

First time at the Emmaus Halloween Parade.

First time at Jake's Flea Market. 

 A little side note, earlier this week I was reading through some older blogs so that I could update Millie's baby book. (I always check on here to make sure I didn't miss anything)  And I began reading a post that I made in July and was amazed and how I was feeling about my pregnancy. I was entertained by my words and emotions as my pregnancy was lagging on.  When I was done reading I went back to the top to take a closer look at the date of the post and it was July 28th.  Little did I know that when I was writing that post that I would be going into labor that night and meeting my precious little girl early the next morning.  It's just so wonderful to be able to go back and know how I was feeling that morning.  :)  Here is a link to that day if you want to reread it yourself.  July 28th Post
