Tuesday I went up to my school to work in my classroom while Bill stayed home with John. I moved a bunch of heavy furniture around, but it was very hot and sticky in my room (the air temp is set warmer throughout the building in the summer), so I didn't stay long. Wednesday I somehow convinced Bill and John to go with me, and I called my friend Jim, who will be the Special Ed. teacher in my room this year, to come up, too. We didn't get much done then, either, but, to answer your question, Carolyn, all my stuff seems to have been moved to my room now. My room is far from being set up, and Monday we have no time to work in our rooms, Tuesday is another training day, so it will most likely be Wednesday before I get back in there. Fortunately our Sneak-a-Peek is not until Friday morning, so I'll have a couple of days (hopefully) to get things done. I plan on hanging an "Under Construction" sign outside my room for Sneak-a-Peek, so I won't have to have things perfect by Friday morning.
Tomorrow, Jim and I are going shopping. For the past several years, our governor has given teachers in the state a $100 Visa gift card to spend on classroom supplies, etc, during our state's Tax Free weekend, so we are getting together to spend our $200 Sonny Money (our governor's first name is Sonny). I'll be buying things like supplies for the kids who come without them, etc.
Took my car to the shop finally today. It is going to cost about $1,000 for repairs: oil change, tune up, fuel something or other. Good thing the baby's bills are covered. I also went shopping for clothes since NONE of my pre-pregnancy stuff fits me and I don't want to still wear maternity pants.
John did a good job with sleeping at night last night. He had a bottle around 10 and fell asleep, and then woke again around 1:30. I nursed him and he went back to sleep until 5:00, when I nursed him again, and he slept then until 9:00. John stayed awake the rest of the morning and part of the afternoon, then took a 4 hour nap. He's awake now and playing on his play gym, looking in his mirror, which is his favorite new thing to do. Hopefully he'll have a repeat of last night with the whole sleeping thing!!
Today's pics: John in his "Daddy Rocks" body suit; two pictures of John and me.

Glad to hear John slept better last night. Have our fingers crossed that the new sleeping habits will continue - and get even better. Hard to believe your school starts next week. (Did Jim get up the courage to hold John today?)
Love you all, Grammy L
John keeps growing and staying alert more and more. What grade is he starting in school?
