Dog Days of Summer

The days are still long, but they are numbered.  Tyler returns to daycare on August 3rd, and I return to work–at my new job!  A friend encouraged me to apply at Niwot High School, and as it turns out, I got the job.  I will still be teaching special ed to high school students with cognitive needs, but at a school much closer to my house.  As it’s still summer, I haven’t thought too much about the transition other than needing to get my phone to understand “Niwot.”  Right now when I voice text I’m given “night what,” “not hat,” “high hot,” and other nonsensical interpretations.  Pull it together, Siri.  N-i-w-o-t.

We have had an amazing summer which I will blog about more (I hope).

Here are a few things we’ve been up to:

Eating new foods and trying to break 18 lbs.
