The Last Day of School - 2020/2021

The last day of school is here. It feels like they just started in person school full time...oh wait, because they did! All four were so glad to be back in person full time a couple months ago. This feels like the shortest but also the longest school year. They've each had their highs and lows throughout the year. We're hoping this fall they won't have to still wear masks, do temp checks, stay distanced at lunch or class and just be able to go back to normal. With all that's gone on, we're ready to summa like we used to!

Tyler - first and last day

Aidan - first and last day

Olivia - first and last day

Jaime's last last day of school as principal at McClintock Stem Elementary

All the original owls! These people have been working at the school with Jaime since it opened. Having this many want to stay under his roof says a lot about Jaime...

As well as this. He's received so many wonderful cards and notes and emails from staff who has loved working for him and learning from him. 



He cleaned out his office. It looks a lot bigger with everything out but furniture. And the long empty hallway. We spent many evenings in the winter coming here to get walks in. It was kinda fun actually. 

Jaime's name will forever be on this building. What an honor. 

Farewell McClintock

No one could do what you did with this school Jaime. YOU created something special from the day the dirt began to move to when the doors opened for students. I'm excited to see what  amazing things you do in the high school.

SURPISE!!!!

Yes, this is true. And yes....this will be our newest addition to the family. You think you're surprised! Just imagine how surprised I was! Big time let me tell you. And in case you are wondering, I am just starting my first week of month number five. Yes, I am in my second trimester already. Hard to believe it's really gone that fast. I haven't been sick at all. It's been very nice. I could easily not know that I was pregnant because I don't feel like I am. This explains why I haven't been sick. It's a boy. I wasn't sick with Aidan either. I kind of figured it was a boy and this morning confirmed that it was. Here's the little guy in action. , We got up a little after 6 a.m. and got ready to head to the hospital. My mom showed up at 6:45 to watch the other three at home for us. Thanks Mom! We got to the hospital and you know the rest of the story there...boy. :) Everything looks to be good from what we saw but someone else will look

For Unto Us A Child Is Born

On Wednesday December 16th I went to the hospital at 7 a.m. to start my induction. I was already dialated to a 3 and dr. said if I wanted to have the baby I could. I didn't want to be in the hospital or recovering too close to Christmas with my entire family home for the season so I said sure! I was finally underway at 8 a.m. with pitocin. The rest of the morning and afternoon was spent in boredom and watching tv with Jaime at my side. At around 12:45 the dr. came to break my water because that usually gets things going quick. My kids have all arrived shortly after the water breaks. However, since the baby's head kind of floated up he decided to wait a bit to not risk the umbilical cord coming out first or wringing around the baby's neck. Bummer! I was so disappointed. So, on to more waiting, turning up the pitocin...again. Finally at 3:30 p.m. I was having some strong contractions and dialated 5-6. My mother-in-law came to visit at 4 and Jaime told her that it would probab

The Past Week...

Image
This past week has been a pretty laid back one. I've been getting things done on my own schedule...whenever I feel like it. Haha! Took the boys to the library, I've been making time (a.k.a. not working) to read a book for my own enjoyment, planted some flowers, made a few trips to the park with the kids, done a bit of shopping (grocery shopping at Winco is a lot of work with just me and the boys and I really have to gear up for it.), and I have been playing Sorry and Hi Ho Cherry O with Aidan quite a bit. So I have been busy just not with the normal stuff that keeps me busy on a daily basis.  I love browsing Costco with Jaime and my kids in the evening of a week day. It's not very crowded then. If there's a fun movie on the TVs we like to stop and watch a little. We stopped to watch a bit of the Avenger's in 3D...hence Aidan's glasses. :) I spent a day at Mom's with the boys. It was fun to be there with her and visit and do stuff like we used t
