Not much has happened around here this week. Greg started work on Monday. He went in and set up his classroom for the first three days and then the students finally came on Thursday. Greg is teaching only grade 8s this year so there will be a little less work for him to do. He doesn't have to produce lesson plans for the grade 9 classes for the Ministry. He has a nice small class (12 students) and his students are well behaved. They are unlike the other classes we have previously taught. I hope he has an excellent year with them. The graduation trip should be fun with only 12 students (only 3 girls too). 

For Sawyer and I every day is pretty much the same. We wake up, eat, play a little (as much as a 7 week old plays), she naps and then we do it again. However getting her to take an afternoon nap has been a chore, because she won't nap in the afternoon she gets kinda fussy by the time Greg comes home, so he doesn't see the best side of her. 

Since coming up here we have tried to get Sawyer on some what of a schedule. She regularly takes a morning nap. Afternoon not so great but our big milestone comes at bed time. She starts her bed time routine around 8:30 and by 9:00 she is ready for bed and then she sleeps 8 hours!!! It is so nice (this still however gets me up at 5:00 am- so we are working on getting her to sleep longer). She does go back to sleep though until about 7-7:30 am after she has eaten. 

This weekend we are not doing much. We had everyone over for a games night on Friday. Yesterday we walked to the store and I think we are going to the school this afternoon to help Greg get stuff done for this week. 

I hope everyone enjoys their long weekend.
