Happy Fall

This fall has been insanely busy!

John has finished soccer, is taking a break from hockey, and is still enjoying gymnastics.
Megan is still loving dance and gymnastics classes.

We have made multiple trips to the apple orchards and have enjoyed some quality outdoor time.
We had a great time trick or treating. Megan was a tiger and John was Batman! The amount of candy that they scored was ridiculous.

John and Megan have been doing well academically. They are both able to write their names and as the school year progresses, they are writing better. They know their letters, numbers, colors, and shapes. Megan is still a bit shy and doesn't often lead, however, she is also not someone who follows easily. She is a constant help to her teachers at school and she continues to be very kind, but at times a bit sassy.
John is a very active guy. He struggles when his schedule is inconsistent, but does much better when we are able to stay constant. Unfortunately, with our crazy work schedules, there will be times where he will have to adjust and I hope that he will be able to do so easier as he gets older. It is very sad to see him struggle in this way. Despite his struggle with adjusting to change, he is an amazing little man. He has shown me that he has a kind heart and I am proud of the person he is becoming.

I am working a ton! I love my new job and feel like I am making a difference. I am building relationships with students and families everyday. I do find myself missing the classroom every once in a while, but I am loving the new role and don't have any desire to head back to the classroom environment.
