****A BIG BLOG WELCOME to our friends Jordan & Brian Mills!! Check out their blog (the link is in the right column) “The Mills in Moz”! They are leaving to join the Peace Corps in Mozambique, Africa in about a week and a half. I’m so glad we can follow their adventures because we will miss them SOO much!! We love you guys!!****
Well, I have been back to work now for a couple of weeks! This is my first full week with kids. As many of you know, I am teaching morning Kindergarten this year. The first week and a half with inservice days was pretty crazy. I had to work full time because of all the meetings I had to go to as well as getting my classroom set up. Also, Molly got sick on the SECOND day I was back to work! Matt and my mom had to take turns watching her. She had a fever and a sore throat, and it was so hard to leave my baby girl when she didn’t feel well. 
We made it through! Now, I get to work half days and pick Molly up at 12:30, which is great! I love my school and my students. It is good to be back! Molly seems to be adjusting to daycare very well. She loves the kids and the provider. In fact, where she used to cry when I left her, now she waves “Bye” to me with a smile in the mornings! On the flip side, she doesn’t really want to go home with me at 12:30, but would much rather stay and play with her friends!
I haven’t posted pictures in a while, so I thought I would post one from Janet & Jim’s August visit. Here is the whole Hughart crew!! Including one very proud Uncle Scott who just graduated from Paramedic School! Yay Scott!
Also, Matt just had a birthday on Monday! We celebrated on Sunday with a hike and of course, Olive Garden for dinner! Here are some pictures from our hike. If you can’t tell, I was practicing my photography on a couple of the best subjects around! 
Baby in a backpack!
Daddy's little girl!
Happy Birthday Daddy!
