Our Visit!

This afternoon Brekken and I made a trip down to Northfield to visit the class. I told Brekken this morning that we were going to meet all of my 1st grade friends; he was very excited. :) It was so nice to see all of them. I miss seeing their smiling faces everyday. We also had a chance to visit the other classrooms too.

It's a BOY!

Brekken James Warrick weighed in at 5lbs 15 oz and 19.5inches long on Sunday, November 6 at 1:20 p.m. We're doing well adjusting to our new life and routines at home! Looking forward to bringing him in to the classroom and meeting my 1st grade friends!

Special Guest Day

Thank you to the special guests that were able to join us for mass, school tours and lunch on Tuesday. It was so nice to meet the special people in your children's lives. The 1st graders and their guests seemed to really enjoy the morning!

6th Grade Buddies!

We met with our 6th grade buddies for the first time this past Monday afternoon! They brought books to read to us, and some of us even had a chance to read to them. The kids were so excited. We think we'll meet with a new buddy each time we hang out which is about every two weeks! We plan to go trick or treating in their classroom on Halloween!
