Call me partial, but he's probably the cutest baby ever born!

Back to Work...
It's finally Friday!!! Halleluiah! What a long week it was! I went back to work on Monday--Alex's two month birthday. Upon my return, I found out that a good majority of my students were failing in my absence, so I've spent all week catching them back up. The kids were generally happy to see me, but I think they realized playtime was over once I rolled back in the door. Stricker has come down with a case of "Spring Fever", and ALL of my kids are affected.They have been crazy. I've confiscated floam, tiny little skateboards,cell phones, ipods, an array of origami weapons, and even a sock filled with paper that a kid was hitting others with. Melinda and Mike are the only ones that keep me sane, and only because we find everything utterly hilarious. Working in a middle school is an endless barrell of laughs. I missed Alex so much that first day though! It got a little easier as the week progressed, but man that first day was rough! I put his picture up on my desk, and just stared at it. I also brought in a picture book to show the kids, and found myself flippin through it all day. I felt naked without him in my arms Monday, because we had never been apart since he was born. As soon as I came home, I started making dinner. (Fried Chicken and potatoes) I usually sit Alex in his bouncer in the living room while cooking, but Monday I sat him in his high chair, so I could see him at all times! I think I'm counting down the days more than the kids are. They wrote the countdown huge on board on Wednesday and instead of erasing it,like I usually do. I corrected it and made it darker! LOL. 22 more days until get to spend all summer with my baby boy!! On a side note, my first Mother's Day is coming up on Sunday, and it truly is my first, because I didn't get pregnant with Alex until sometime in late June/early July. Needless to say, I'm excited and proud to be a Mom.
