From the mouth of 3rd graders..

So for the past few weeks school has been going on and I have gotten to know my kids pretty well and I have discovered that the minds of third graders are well... interesting ...

1. Mrs. Nelson you are having a BOY bc only GIRLS have BOY babies

2. Mrs. Nelson I couldnt turn in my spelling contract bc my little brother peed on it

3. Mrs. Nelson my THIRD dad moved out this morning because my mom said he didnt make dinner.

4. Mrs. Nelson We all have a boyfriend (4 girls) his name is stuart... .. (one boy four girls... hmmm )... i asked them how that works... they replied... I dont know he just gave us his number

5. Mrs. Nelson if I had a key to the school i would sneak into the cafeteria and eat all the food (completely random comment in the middle of a lesson)

6. Mrs. Nelson, my mom said i CAN only do hw on Mondays and Thursdays

7. Mrs. Nelson, my dad says pregnant women can get ornery easy

8. Mrs. Nelson the reason why I was bad today is bc i forgot my pill this morning

9. Phone call from a concerned mother: Mike (name change) told my daughter to wear something sexy to school ...

10. Mrs Nelson I can't sit in the front (boy who was recently moved to the front of the class because of talking) bc i cant see the board

11. Mrs. Nelson instead of skipping recess, (says the boy who had his recess taken away for not reading) can't I just tell my mom I wasn't reading and she will yell at me?

12. Kenzie ( name change) why are you not reading (they were supposed to be silent reading while i worked with groups)? - her reply- I already read last night for 40 min.. and i only have to read 20 min a day... SO.... I am done...

13. Mrs. Nelson can we line up in Alphabetical order so i can be first (her last name started with the letter N)

14. Boy asking for hw for the week bc his grandpa died and he was going to his funeral... Me: i am sorry he died.. Him: i am happy he died bc now we dont ahve to go there for dinner on sunday anymore OR christmas


I am sure there are more... but my brain hurts from trying to remember them... and i am sure there will be more.. all and all i like my job.. and the kids..... only thing i would change is pee boy and his lack of control of his bladder,.. and transfer cry at anything boy to another state

Stolen thunder--but i am over it

Russell apparently got sick of waiting for me to update my blog... or he was looking for entertainment while we were at my family's house in cedar... so he did an update on his blog about Korbin's birthday and since i am much too lazy to make another one you can go to his site - russiferandfam@blogspot.com to see some obviously cute pic of my kid.

School has now been going on for 4 weeks.. and I am thinking i am getting the hang of things.. and feel like my head is above water for the moment. I am loving it... Most the kids are cute- aside from pee in my pants EVERY day boy and cry if you look at me the wrong way boy. But out of a class of 26 .. only haveing two kids with "issues" is pretty good right? I even have some of my sub plans made for when i pop (which is in less than 8 weeks thank you!)

swimming

these are from a few weeks ago-looks like he is leaning more towards my way of life eh russell ;)

Watering the lawn

Korbin had a blast watering the lawn untill he had a party foul and had to be sprayed off.......

NOUGH SAID

So since russell went blog crazy i dont have to much to write.. and you will have to go to his blog to see all the pic :)-
But here is the quick update of our lives-- we DID NOT find out what baby number two is.. my bet is now changed to girl... i think.. it is really neat to feel her (it) move now- i forgot how much i loved it with korbin-
We went camping over my birthday with some really good friends.. and russell was a good sport about going again after we had only been home for two hours (we went Friday to Saturday with Bob and Alyse came home unpacked showered and napped and then got a call from Marshall and Lanette and we decided to head back up... for another night.. so repacked and hit the road) it was TONS of fun, and for the first time in three years didnt rain TOO crazy bad ;)
Russell is yet to do the camping pic but has said he woudl..so I will give him a fair chance ( i want to encourage his blogging habits..) so stayed tuned to his site and leave a comment of two and maybe he will become a regular-- next thing he knows poor kid will be on facebook :)

Being the bigger person (giving in)

So no Russell never updated his blog..but i couldn't resist anymore bc of my lack of a life..

A few things happened since the last post...

1.. I am officially a teacher now... 3rd grade.. eagle valley elementary in eagle mountain. I am excited. it is a lower grade than i was shooting for.. but who knows maybe i will end up loving it.. i am excited/lost all at the same time.. good thing i have a summer to get it all figured out :)

2.. korbin knows how to climb out of the tub.. i know this because he climb out of the tub onto the toilet onto the sink grabbed my phone back to the toilet and then ... back into the tub all in a matter of five min when i was folding wash.. teach me to multi task.... so NOW all i want for my birthday is a new phone.. ( same phone..but not one that is water logged) AND to get my way about baby number two and not finding out ... but we will see i guess :)

3.. korbin got a bike.. and he LOVES it.. i like that i don't have to push him in the stroller anymore

and here are a few pic for mostly Russell's entertainment but you can look too:)~ LOVE YOU BABY SEE YOU FRIDAY :)--

STRIKE

so i here by refuse to update my blog untill russell updates his! he has TONS of good material- Oh AND we get to find out what baby number two is on my birthday (happy birthday to me:) )
BUT i kinda want to wait and see what it is-- russell is anti this and i am trying to convince him it would be a fun game- seeing as he thinks girl and i think boy- it would be the ulimate bet seeing as i am ALWAYS right i could use this chance to pove it--- what do you think???
