I thought i would update you on work and post a few pictures.  Work is going better.  I am enjoying my students more and the concepts I 'm teaching are fun.  Still trying to iron out the collaboration process since the three other teachers I'm working with do not have the same planning as me.  Which makes things more difficult.  Overall I have a bunch of good students who are fun and make me laugh.   What more can I ask for other than a love for math.  I hope to win them over by the end of the year.

On the other front, Caleb is growing by leaps and bounds it feels like.  Since moving up a class at daycare, he now feeds himself.  He eats normal people food, given it is cut up uber small and he eats with his hands.  But he isn't my little baby anymore.  He also drank out of a sippy cup.  Chris and i have been working on this skill for a while to no avail.  I feel like I bought every type of sippy cup out there to give a try.   Chris got annoyed and disabled the no spill feature (aka cut a whole in it).  On Friday night during family dinner time Caleb reached over for his sippy cut grabbed hold with both hands and drank from it.  Then he set it down and proceeded with eating.  I almost cried, he's growing up.  Then on Saturday I realized just how much taller he is getting when he reached for the top of the table.  Wow.

Here's some pics from the weekend

This is how I found them when I returned from a women's breakfast at church on saturday

Later that day sharing a popsicle.  Max clearly wants it, Caleb not so sure he likes Orange flavor

Now he likes it

Playing under the table.
