Week 6ish...

We are proud to share with our family and close friends that we are expecting our first baby around November! We ask that you not post any news to social networking sites since we are waiting until week 12 to share the news with the world. I recently went to a pregnancy clinic to get tested and the nurse thinks I'm about 6.5 weeks along. I am extremely tired all the time (working 2 jobs and finishing my master's doesn't help) and nauseous throughout the day. Which makes it hard because not everyone knows I am pregnant so I can't tell them I'm sick or tired in a believable way. I am also craving everything fruit and peanut butter. I am very sad I can't have chocolate and want it even more now that I can't have it. Also I have eliminated all caffeine (soda...ugh) and many other loved food items from my diet, but it's a sacrifice I am willing to take because I feel truly blessed we were able to conceive and thank the Lord everyday for this miracle.

Teachers & Stay-at-Home Moms (Make Extra $$ This Summer)

As a substitute teacher, I do not get paid during the summer months and I haven't found any luck with tutoring over the summer either. I only work part-time on my husband's days off (bummer for him). So I began researching a few months before summer arrives to plan ahead and see what's out there for moms or subs. I don't want to go anywhere; I am looking for a telecommute job or online job where I can work on my own time while my baby is napping. So here is what I found: 1.  Work at Home Job Listings This is a great database website that takes you to other websites that are hiring for at home jobs. You can search your area (mine came up with zero). Or you can scroll down and browse a list of newly added jobs. Some examples of jobs are bloggers, editors, telemarketer, writers, tech. support, developer, and even an Android App. reviewer. 2.  Mystery Shopping Provider This might be a fun way to earn money if your a stay at home mom who doesn't necessarily like ...

DIY: Calming Glitter Jar

Calming Bottle Instagram Post I saw a great idea on Pinterest a while ago about calming glitter jars being used in the classroom. I have not used it in the classroom yet, but here's what I'm thinking... Students who are upset (not violently) can go to an area of the classroom away from the other students. The area can have a stuffed animal, journal, timer, stress ball, and or the calming jar. I looked around my house for a jar or container that had a flat top so it could be turned over and low and behold I found the Starbucks iced coffee bottle. Here is what I used and did: Need: A sturdy bottle with a flat top bottle of glitter glue (color of your choice) I had a bottle of black glitter glue loose glitter (color of your choice) I had pink rubbing alcohol (for sticky bottle label removal) hot water decorative tape super glue Steps: 1. First I removed the labels from the jar and soaked it in a hot water/rubbing alcohol bath, after it was soaking about an hour o...
