A new day - feeling strong

I will be strong should be more like it.

Man, this weather really gets to me. I should never home alone during this weather because I'm bound to write a depressing blog about how sad I might be, but I know I shouldn't be.

This weather, it makes me miss a lot of things. It's the weather of change. It makes me miss friends, cookouts, patio parties in KC, makes me miss the sun. I LOVE the weather the same time - bring out the hoodies and pj bottoms!

Currently I'm really missing the KC friends that I had. Blair, Tessa, Deanna, Tanya, and others. It's just not the same. I miss the sitting on the porch of one of our apartments just enjoying life. However, I'm so thankful that I don't live in apartment anymore. Just strange and I can't figure it out which bothers me even more.

My life has changed a lot; I knew this would happen but it's difficult at times. I miss a lot of my friends. Student teaching, not working at Kohls, and being prego has really isolated me for the most part. I am still very thankful that I get to see Dan and Michelle on a regular 'schedule' but I never get to see my school friends or my kohls friends. I feel like I have to invite all of the time. Last night I text like 6 people what they were doing... and I heard back from three. Just odd. Life is changing.

Fall means change.


Student teaching is about 1/3 done! I'm so excited and pleased how successful the semester has gone thus far. I really enjoy my students, the stories that I have, and watching them grow. They are sad that I leave in December, as I will be too. Those kids I will never forget for the rest of my life. I hope that as much as they impacted my life that I have done the same for them.

I am really proud of Jeremiah right now. Not that I'm not proud of him normally but I'm a even more proud than before. For the past almost two weeks he has been working out to the insanity program. It is very insane. I can tell he's lost weight and he's well on his way to loosing more. He has a blog The Ongoing Narrative if you would like to follow him and his work out regime. It's silly but as much as he loses, I gain. I know it's healthy for me to gain weight so baby jones can be healthy. I just hope that once baby is here I will be able to stay as motivated as him to 'get skinny' and hope he loves me even if I'm a bit round.

I was able to hear the baby's heart beat at our last appointment. I didn't cry just kept saying how cool it was. I couldn't believe type of miracle of life was growing in me. I have several friends also pregnant and it's been fun talking to them and getting to experience similar things. Some are bit more fun to talk to than others, but that is life. Don't worry Cassie and Kaitlyn I love your conversations =]

Oh!! Thursday night we had a cookout. I grilled (charcoal) all by myself and it was a great success. I'm glad I am 'handy' in doing all house hold chores!

WEll I need to go edit some pictures for some friends.

xoxo,
Megan, Baby, and Daddy Jones
