1 Scheller, 2 Scheller, 3 Scheller... 4!

Today, on September 11, 2014, we got the news that we have been aching for for the last 18 months.  After some difficulty, we got a positive (make it 2, I just had to) pregnancy tests!  I knew that I could take a test Monday, and did, but the stupid thing was invalid.  The control line didn't show up.  It said to wait 3 days and take another.  I honestly thought my cycle was about to start, but today I felt just a little sicky throughout the day.  I also noted to Zach last week that I could barely muster the will to do my workouts several days.  I didn't take a test in the morning because it just didn't cross my mind that I would be pregnant.  So I held my pee for about two hours, and figured I was enough days post- ovulation that it wouldn't matter what time of day it was.  Zach knocked on the bathroom door and asked if I was taking a test and I told him I was.  I laid it on the tub and immediately yanked the shower curtain closed so I couldn't peek.  I've seen plenty of negative pregnancy tests, so I pretty much just expected to see more of the same.  I pulled the curtain back slowly and immediately was shocked to see a VERY positive plus sign in the window.  I called Zach in and just kept saying, "Honey.... Honey..." over and over again, dotted with "I can't believe it."  It was like we in a dream looking in on someone else, because surely this couldn't be real life.

Getting excited! And still in disbelief!

Valentine's Day and the Quickest Weekend Ever

Valentine's morning I treated myself to a heart-shaped chicken biscuit from Chick-fil-a.  They were BOGO free AND I got a survey for a free chicken sandwich.  That in and of itself made my day! : )                                                       Friday evening Zach and I tried to go out for Valentine's Day.  We thought we were early enough to beat the rush, but it turned out we weren't.   We ended up going back home with a quick stop through Donut Bank to get dessert and then we had a DiGiorno pizza and watched the Olympics.  Can you feel the romance? Haha.                                                                                                     Yummy Whoopie Pie!                                                                                          My Valentine! Saturday morning began gloriously at 9:20 a.m. It seems like it's been forever since I slept that late, but it was wonderful!  I met my friend, Jennifer, and he

Christmas Eve

Our Christmas festivities started with Zach's family on Christmas Eve!  We opened presents and ate!  I'll let the pictures do most of the talking!  As you can see, Christmas is so more magical when there are little ones to spoil! : ) Mrs. Claus house shoes from Nana and Poppy!  Mmmmm, paper!  We got Zach's dad a long magnet on wheels.  We hope he liked it!! Haha, it was one of those gifts that was more of a necessity I think!  She was excited!  We are glad she liked it!  We got Zach's mom a record player that is a 5-in-1 system!  Isaiah's sweater we got him!  Its pockets are in the shape of monkey hands too, so I couldn't resist how cute it was!  He is a cute little monkey too!  Book set from us!  Love If You Give A Mouse.... series!  He is saying.

Turns out...

Third grade is not bad at all! The kids are still pretty sweet and are so excited for me to be there and I am excited too! I think it will be fun to see all that they can do and have fun with them. Yesterday I received 5 notes on my desk about how excited that I was there and about how much fun we were going to have. I think they are right! Hopefully I get the hang of them quickly, because I start teaching Science (Mon and Wed), Social Studies(Tues and Thur), and PE (Fri) next week!
