So anyway here I am. I may catch up on a few things but not too many because I might stop typing. The good news is I am writing through contractions. Yes today is the due day. I have learned that "due date" really doesn't mean anything for me (usually late) so it is kinda fun to have a few "ouch" contractions on the actual day. Hooray! We have no name for our new boy though and I really don't have any ideas -- suggestions anyone? We are so excited to have a brother for Helaman - who got a haircut on Monday. It is short and I will have to put up pictures later.
So here are a few things that have been fun and exciting at our home lately:
Building - Mom and Dad are going to build downstairs and we are going to fix the upstairs. We are so excited to have a place to call our own. The top half is in desperate need of repairs but it is really nice to feel like we have something to invest in and to call our own. I got a little crazy and bought a dishwasher. Only to find out that means we need a new sink, countertop and disposal. So it was fun to go to Home Depot and look at colors and get some pricing done. At least we have a start. We are also trying to get rid of our week stay in Maui and use that money for wood floors so that is exciting too.
Hawaii Tech Academy - I am sure most of you know that I quit Kahuku Elem. in the middle of the school year (Jan) and moved to HTA. It was the best thing for me. It has helped me have the time to put my priorities back in line and remind myself what matters most to me. This year we moved Nalia to HTA with me. It is an online school and I have to be there to monitor and teach the curriculum so only one at a time. This has been the best and hardest thing I have ever done but so worth every moment and Nalia is so much happier.
There is so much more but I must get shut eye.
