Jentry's New Pillow

My Grandma Wyse made Jentry a new pillow, and gave it to her when Jentry and I went "home" a few weeks ago... ever since we returned home, Jentry has slept on it every night! In fact some nights she is at the wrong end of her crib...but her head is still on her pillow! I guess she moves it around with her :) Here she is sound asleep on her new pillow. Thanks Gram!

Enjoying the Bouncy Place

Last weekend Jack, Jentry and I went to a bounce house place to help Macy celebrate her 3rd birthday. I was a little leery about allowing Jentry to play in the toddler bounce "house" but then determined it couldn't be any dirtier than daycare where she sticks EVERYTHING in her mouth! Needless to say, I'm glad I allowed her the opportunity to play, she LOVED it! Here are some pictures of Jentry enjoying the bouncy place.Jentry enjoying the Rescue-RI in the Toddler ZoneJentry was so fun in the Toddler Zone, she crawled all around, but especially loved the boat where she rolled, stood, and posed for the camera!

Just Plain Cute!

Some mornings before Jentry leaves for "school" she is just plain cute! Sometimes it's the outfit, sometimes it's the hair and sometimes it's just her actions. There are many mornings Jack and I can't help but smile or laugh at her. Once she wakes up and has her bottle she is usually an extremely happy baby, she makes our mornings worthwhile! One morning this week I thought she was just too cute, enjoy these pictures of her! (Notice the "Jenna" look in the picture above?!?)

Happy St. Patrick's Day

So I'm a few days late with this post. I'm not sure what is wrong with me other than stress, but I've been exhausted this week. So now I'm finally awake enough to post but it just happens to be a few days late...but better late than never...right?!? On St. Patrick's Day, Jack, Jentry and I all wore some green...however I think the only pictures we have are of our princess in her new green outfit. She is awfully cute if I do say do myself!

Also, it needs to be noted that Jentry turned 13 months old today! She isn't quite walking on her own yet but she is cruising along the furniture or wall, and can crawl in super fast mode when she wants to get somewhere! She also has 6 teeth now and is enjoying new foods...no more baby food! My how time flies!! Anyway, I'll get to the part you really want to see...here are some pictures of her on St. Patrick's Day

Pink

So many of you know we have lots of Pink at our house...I don't really mind Pink all that much...that is until this past Friday at about 1pm when I received my "Pink" slip from the school where I teach. I NOW HATE PINK!! Yep...I'm now one of the many, many Indiana teachers who is frantically searching for employment for next school year.

I feel blessed that I have 2 other degrees and I don't HAVE to be a teacher...but I WANT to be a teacher. So needless to say, I'm madly searching for another teaching position that I can fill and fall in love with.

I hate the way this process was done and I hate the fact that I feel like a time bomb is ticking and could explode before I find a job. I've never felt this pain/hurt/anger towards a job/career in my life. I'm working on dealing with it and I must say that Jack is a wonderful supporter and without him I would be in a much lower place than I am right now.

So, let the prayers begin! Not only that I find a job, but that I find a job that is a good fit for me, be that back in education or in the business world. I'm open to that too!

3/23**Update** I got my "official" pink slip today. I must say that I HATE this process and I'm disgusted at the way my school corporation has handled this situation. I am desperately searching for a new job, I want something stable and I'm sad and unhappy at this point. The thought of not having a job weighs very heavily on my mind, especially since I carry the insurance for my whole family. I'm devastated by this job loss :(

Please Help Us!!!

Jentry's Daycare is trying to earn enough money to buy a new playhouse so we are fundraising to help them out...however by purchasing items you would also be helping us out because the number 1 seller earns a free week of daycare and the #2 and #3 sellers earn money off of a week of daycare! Jentry would love to be one of those 3 kids!!

In order to help us out just go to www.helpourgroup.com then click on the big red circle that says "shop now" then enter the group id 35742 after that enter Jentry's First and Last name and her age and click on shop now. Once you order your products they will count towards Jentry's total items sold.

If you are able to help us out Thank you :)

Yep...she loves her Dada

The other morning Jentry was dressed so cute and she had on her new kicks so I wanted to take a picture of her. I was able to capture her love for her Daddy! You can't see her new shoes all that well but they were some expensive little shoes! I guess we go to great lengths to make sure the needs of our children are met! Anyhow, if you check out the next picture you will see that she enjoys her daddys morning kisses!
In fact she loves her Dada so much that as her and I were traveling up north to see my Grandma she sang dada dada daaaad dada for the first 45 minutes. Jack and I call this her favorite song. She sings it often! It's official, Jentry loves her Daddy!
