Beauty and the Police

Little Man is practically walking. I still can't believe that he is already ONE. It seems like this year has flown by. I remember people telling me it would, but I never believed them. It is so true. It seems like once you have kids, there is no time...to remember time.  He crawled pretty late according to "the books"....but that didn't last long. He couldn't care less about crawling and would rather walk when you hold his finger...or now just completely let go and fall. I continue to remind him that he falls like a board still so that is just not going to work. Yesterday when I was at work I was told that he walked from the ottoman to the coffee table...sigh. So BIG. I am glad that he is making these progressions!! I don't even care if I am there....just as long as it is documented and he does it later for me, ha!

He goes to work 4/7 days a week and we start all over. It is safe to say we are exhausted. So let me tell you now about my little escape.  It's not what you think its going to be...in fact, many people might say I'm crazy. My classroom. I absolutely LOVE where I work. I know everything about it, I have contr...
