Sleep: Like a baby with my Boppy. *knock on wood*
Best moment this week: Starting my 5th year of teaching! And my kids who have been so sweet about my pregnancy.

Weekly Wisdom: My body and baby are my #1 priority. (Just have to keep telling myself that.)
Milestones: Starting a new school year has really tested me. I have been so exhausted this week and I'm finding that I can't teach like I'm used to. Unfortunately my kids are going to get a lot of lessons with me from my comfy chair. I wish I had all this energy other preggos do.
