...WHAT WE'RE EATING THIS WEEK...
Sunday: Steak & Hummus Pitas
(These are delicious. See image below! I should really blog the recipe!)
Monday: Homemade Sweet & Sour Chicken
(This had the potential of being delicious, but for some reason, it had a charred flavor. I think my wok was in need of a deep cleaning...)
Tuesday: BLTs
(Quick and easy before our Tuesday night activities - MOPS for me and basketball for Craig.)
Wednesday: Leftovers
Thursday: Italian Enchiladas
(One of my final Wildtree meals remaining from the Wildtree party I attended in January.)
Friday/Saturday/Sunday: To Be Decided...

...WHAT I'M REMINISCING ABOUT...
When Holden was a smiley, giggly, happy go-lucky boy. He's been a complete stranger since his shots last Wednesday and I'm so over it! Craig even took him to our walk-in clinic yesterday fearing a bad reaction to the vaccines, or an ear infection, or something, but nope, nothing! He's needy, he's cranky, he's squirmy, he isn't eating/drinking much, he wants held and then wants down. It's all beyond frustrating considering he's normally a very laid back baby. I want my sweet baby back!
...WHAT I'M LOVING...
The weather!! We had quite a few dreary, rainy days there, but these last couple have been sunny and 75! Perfect! And the forecast doesn't look too shabby either...
...WHAT WE'VE BEEN UP TO...
The usual. Work, daycare, Friday night soccer. Relaxing and returning to a normal life again after planning/prepping/celebrating Holden's first birthday weekend.
...WHAT I'M DREADING...
The next 36 hours. Craig left for Dallas for work this morning. Which means I'm in charge of daycare pick-up, daycare drop-off, meals, bedtime, morning routines, etc. for myself, two kids, and a dog through tomorrow night. Did I mention our daycare is a good 20 minutes of our house in the opposite direction of my work and through a bunch of road construction, which means I need to leave home at 6:30 tomorrow morning. Yikes. Also, I can also almost guarantee there's going to be some kind of drama - flat tire, sick kid, both?? And I'm already convinced that I'm going to see a huge spider at home tonight. Eeek!
...WHAT I'M WORKING ON...
A final exam review packet for my Integrated Math II classes. I love this part of my job (the planning and prep work), but it is just plain exhausting planning for a new course with new material every day. Nonetheless, this is the last major thing to plan for and I couldn't be prouder of myself for surviving this year!!!!!!!!!
...WHAT I'M EXCITED ABOUT...
SUMMER!!! Three weeks from TODAY is the final day for teachers for the 2014-15 school year! Our last day was already scheduled for crazy early this year (May 22), but then the lack of snow days prompted district officials to let us go two days earlier. No complaints here!
...WHAT I'M WATCHING/READING...
Just a whole lotta Royal's games! Other than the Bachelor(ette), I don't watch much t.v. I'm always thrilled when April rolls around and there's something good on t.v. again!
...WHAT I'M LISTENING TO...
Country. Always. Some of my current faves: Sangria (Blake Shelton), Raise Em Up (Keith Urban & Eric Church), Diamond Rings & Old Barstools (Tim McGraw), What We Aint Got (Jake Owen), Take Your Time (Sam Hunt), Girl Crush (Little Big Town) and a few non-country tunes, too: Thinking Out Loud (Ed Shearan) and Uptown Funk (Mark Ronson...yes, I had to Google that!).
...WHAT I'M WEARING...
Lots of skirts, dresses, and sandals! Today, this. About the comfiest thing there is - a maxi skirt and tee. However, I look forward to summer apparel (and not wearing make up) even more!!
...WHAT I'M DOING THIS WEEKEND...
Friday night soccer. Chaperoning and taking "Party Pics" at MV's Prom on Saturday. And a potential Royal's game at the K on Sunday! Sounds like a pretty great weekend to me!
...WHAT I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT MONTH...
Ummm duh, the {unofficial} start of the most amazing season there is and the opening of our neighborhood pool and seeing some friends that will be in town over Memorial weekend!
...WHAT ELSE IN NEW...
Hmmmm....I took some photos for some friends last weekend whose sweet baby Colton is already 6 months old! They are some of my favorite photos I've taken to date! I also took some newborn photos of my newest nephew, Madden, while in Iowa for Easter weekend. I was especially nervous about those because I don't have any of the cutesy newborn props, nor do I have a studio backdrop, and I was nervous about editing the splotchy newborn skin. But I'm really happy with how they turned out! I'm still far from professional, but I'm getting better and I enjoy taking pictures for family and friends! You can check out my page on Facebook - Sarah Bethany Photography - and if you're in the KC/JoCo area, I'd love to practice on you!
