I'm Back!... ?.....

Well, as expected, I haven't been keeping up with this blog.. but here's whats been going on with me...

I'm back to work of course and things are going well. It's been an ok year so far, not too hard. I really like my students this year and that is always a plus. I've had many college recommendations to write this year, more than ever. I really do like writing them but they take so long! I still feel flattered when students ask me to write one for them. Other school stuff is going ok too. I am going to be a co-presenter at a conference in a few weeks and that is a lot of work, but we're getting there. I created the Power Point for it but I have to get my act together on what exactly I will be talking about. I still have 3 more days... :)

I got contact lenses! That's the big news in my life right now. They are still new - I got them 4 days ago- but it's going ok. They are going to take some getting used to, thats for sure.

Benjamin is awesome. He is saying new words and phrases everyday. He is also gaining new perspective on things and starting to mentally put things together. He knows that he is "Ben" and now everything is Ben's... Ben's seat, Ben's shoes, Ben's food, etc. So cute! He can count up to 20 and puts together 4-5 words sentences all the time. His favorite thing to do is boss me around :P Mama sit! Mama get down and play! Mama juice! And of course, Dada is his favorite person in the whole world!

Well, that's me for now.. lets see if I get back within 3 months!
