Now that it is officially summer, we took the plunge and converted Leah's crib into a toddler bed. (Due to the fact that she could climb both in and out of it...) It has been an adventure. The first night Ryan went in to check on her and found her sitting cross-legged in the middle of her bedroom, looking exhausted but content with her own power. The next night we checked on her before we went to bed and found her sprawled out on the carpet. Tonight, she came out to see what we were doing a good half hour after we thought she was asleep. Such a stinker! The best part is hearing her little feet POUNDING down the hallway in the morning when she runs into our room to wake us up. What a great alarm clock! If only she had a snooze button... :)
In other news, I have a new job next year! I am transferring to another Catholic school that is much closer and I will be teaching middle school science, which I'm really excited about.
Also, we have had a bit of a home-owner catastrophe this week. We woke up at about 5am on Monday to find our kitchen and basement quite...squishy. Fortunately we woke up then and not a few hours later when more water certainly would have gotten into everything. So, we are having some restorations made in the kitchen and basement. It's not what we hoped our first week of summer would be like, but we're trying to see the bright side - new carpet! We will try to post some before and after pictures, but our internet may not be constant over the next two weeks as our modem is in the soggy basement.
Ryan's PlayStation. An unfortunate casualty of the basement calamity.
