Aunt Sarah's Graduation!

Theressa and I were talking one day about what Trey would wear to my graduation, and I said I should make him a shirt! I got on this website inktastic.com and designed my own onesie! I thought this was precious! I'm pretty sure he's going to get a lot of designed shirts from me in his future!! Anyways....thought I would share!

Baby Trey

Theressa had Draymond Len Tucker III (Trey) on October 21, 2010 at 6:44 PM! He was 6 lbs 1 oz and 19 3/4 inches long! Throughout Theressa's pregnancy, I never thought about how I would react when he was born. When I first saw him, I started crying! It is just such a miracle. She went through some complications during labor, but everything came out great. Thank you, God! Trey is perfect! He is so tiny, and has the quietest little cry (right now). I'm sure my blog is going to go in a whole new direction now since I have a nephew! :) There are some pictures below of him!

This was his going home outfit! He was asleep after she got him dressed, but he is just too precious.

What a cutie!

Theressa sent this picture to me the morning after he was born! He was wide awake!


The pacifier is almost as big as his face! I just love him!!!!

Student Teaching Part 2

Here is my school for my next placement! It's Meador Elementary. I am so excited about being in Kindergarten, especially during the holidays! I think it is fun to do thematic units with the young ones that have to do all about the holidays. I'll try to keep blogging during this placement. I barely had a free minute during my last one!




Sixth Grade

Wow! What a quick 7 weeks! I had a great experience in 6th grade. I went in terrified of those kids. I thought they were going to be huge, mean, and have bad attitudes. They were all great! There were the select few that I had to get on to, but overall it was a great group! I didn't realize how much I would get attached to them since there were 130 kids to teach daily. My last day was Oct. 6 and all my kids made me cards. They would present them to me before we started that day's lesson, and I would fight back tears the whole time. I will keep and treasure those cards forever. I was in a History class, so my time was spent researching things I forgot and looking up things I'm pretty sure I never learned. I liked 6th grade because of how independent they are. I got very used to just saying, do this...and they did it! Now I'm going into Kindergarten. It should be an interesting change since Kindergarten is so different. I'm looking forward to being back in an elementary school though. I feel like that's where I'm supposed to be. I've already met my new mentor teacher, and she is so sweet! I hope to have another great experience! Hopefully I find a job somewhere in the middle of the year. God will put me exactly where I need to be, so I will just put it in His hands.
