1st full week of school, CHECK!

so, we all survived our first full week of school (although Vince's was last week because teachers started last week). We've had some good times for sure! I have declared Sushi Thursdays at work and have brought sushi both thursdays as my lunch :) Vince has the boys napping and eating and Sofia is good to go with her schedule as well. This week she will have orientation and then class will start the tuesday after labor day. Here are some things I've heard this week...

-Wow Mrs. Iadipaolo you got so skinny, I guess that's what happens after you have a baby.

-Will you wear my football jersey next Friday? I've had a lot of cute girls that have asked to wear mine, but I told all of them I would ask you first and if you said no then I'd consider giving it to one of them... (weird?)

-I don't like when my socks match. It's really weird, even if I'm wearing white socks one has to be tall and the other short.

-Do we have to do this in Spanish?

-How come the freshman got their planner books first? (Duh- they're the ones that need it most?)

-It's picture day for those of you teachers that haven't gotten your picture updated in the last 10 years, please make sure you get your picture taken today (hahahaha)

I have more I'm sure but can't think of any. I'll keep a journal and write these funny sayings I hear at work because honestly... you gotta laugh!!

Back to School, Back to School....

Wow, my summer was the longest summer EVER thanks to Santiago (and Vince cuz he helped :) ). My last day of work was April 23rd for summer vacation and today it's official over. I've had an incredible summer this year, probably the BEST one yet. Santiago has been a wonderful addition to our family and we couldn't have asked for a better little helper of a big sister Sofia. We've gotten to do many things as a family- including going to the zoo, traveling to Maryville to see the Abuelos multiple times, swam, and lots more. I'm so blessed to have great kids and such an awesome husband. I'll straight out admit that if it weren't for Vince... well he's just the perfect teammate for me. We work well together and balance each other out, and this summer I've realized even more why I fell in love with him in the first place. He's kindhearted, understanding, honest, loyal, and has the BEST sense of humor for me. I love you Sweets. Thanks for making my summer relaxing, enjoyable, challenging, and just simply AWESOME.

What a great way to start the school year to know how much love there is at home waiting for me at the end of the working day.

Cheers to a great school year!!!!
