So much going on!

I can't believe it's been two whole months ince I last posted!!! Where should I start?
I guess with the business. We are soon going to be taking over a bead shop! When I was pregnant with Noah we went to a local bead shop and made some good friends. They're the ones who gave us our love for beads and actually taught us how to make jewelry. To start with, it was a bead shop/coffee bar. Well the coffee bar expanded to a little vegetarian restaurant. Now that's what they are focusing on. They don't have time for the beads anymore, but they don't want to close the bead shop altogether. So there is a room in front where they are keeping the bead shop and my hubby and I are going to run it. It will be all our business! We've wanted a shop of our own for so long now. And the plus of having it there is (beside the VERY inexpensive rent) they are keeping their inventory there for us to sell. We just pay them a percentage as we sell it. Plus, they are very business minded and are going to help us along and let us use their suppliers! It's the perfect situation! And we'll only have the shop open Mondays and Saturdays so I will still be able to be home with the kids the rest of the week!

Which brings me to something else. I put Noah in public school today. I wasn't keeping up well enough and with the new baby coming I knew it would just get worse. And today I found out that I had been doing worse than I thought because they had to do an assessment. They recommended putting him back in kindergarten. :( It was my choice. But they showed me how he did on the assessment and what he should be able to do and it looks like he would struggle too much if they put him in with the other first graders. I'm pretty mad at myself, but Noah doesn't seem to care at all. He's just happy to be around all the kids.

And yesterday I went in for my ultrasound! Everything on the baby is perfect! And it's a girl!!! We don't have a name picked out yet. We have a long list of them but can't narrow it down. We will soon enough though.
Isn't she sweet?

Well, I need to go get some stuff done. I've slacked far too long. Today was an eyeopener to that.
Love and hugs to all!

what a sweet ultrasound pic :)

I'm sorry about how things went with homeschooling, but at least you can say that you tried it out, and it's obvious that you want the best for your little guy :) That's great that he is excited to be with the other kids.
