The way a weekend should be

We've had such a relaxing weekend! It has been so nice to start really getting baby stuff put together and put away. This morning we had our usual routine of going to Panera Bread for breakfast then taking Juan to Marymoor Park for a nice long walk. It was a gorgeous morning and there were so many more dog owners out and about. Juan was really cracking us up as he ran about the whole off-leash park like he owned the place. This morning we actually took an extra lap, but we were only able to do this because of the Honey Buckets placed in convenient locations throughout the park.
This week has been a bit nuts as I've been preparing and starting school conferences. Friday, I had 9 conferences back to back and Monday I'll have 10 back to back. I'll finish up Tuesday with 6 more. This also includes teaching students from 9-noon each day.
Wednesday we'll head out for the farm for Thanksgiving. We are all looking forward to that as we haven't taken a trek there for quite some time. It doesn't look like we'll be going there for Christmas because starting the first week in December I have biweekly appointments. We received disappointing news Friday that I'll probably have to go to Seattle for both appointments each week because the local clinic can't perform the tests we need. It is just a stress test, and they do them, but somehow, don't want to have to bother with the communication piece between the 2 clinics. I'm hoping this doesn't mean I have to have a substitute 2 half days each week for the duration. I've been feeling so great and school has been going well, so it would be a bummer to have to start taking time off before it is truly necessary.
I'm going to continue the day of clean up and organization around here and prepare for the short days and short week around the corner.
