September Excitement!

Well, the day is finally near...Tomorrow I will meet my 2nd bundle of joy!  
It's been an incredibly long 9 months and not the easiest pregnancy...I think chasing around a toddler made this pregnancy a bit more challenging than the first.  :)  

I put a few last minute touches on Baby Jack's nursery.  I love the way it turned out.

Our cozy corner!  
 The little details make me happy :)
 Jack's bookshelf...
 Close up!
 Jack's changing table.  I'll add his newborn pics & family pics to the picture frames very soon!

I've been busy this weekend finishing up a few last minute projects that I should have done weeks ago...With my first, I made goodie bags for the Labor & Delivery nurses.  That seemed like too much work this time (LOL), so I made a simple, sweet treat to show our thanks!
 These would also make great little gifts for babysitters or friends that help out with LO in the beginning!  Throw in a Starbucks gift card, and you have a gift for your Nanny!  
"Thank you for helping with our little peanut!"
You can download the gift tags here!

I'm celebrating a TpT milestone, and for a few days you can get my newest product, Pumpkin Palooza for FREE!  Yippee!  It's my way of saying THANK YOU for loving and supporting TheHappyTeacher!  :) 
Pumpkin Palooza is filled with fun printables to engage your kiddos during the weeks leading up to Halloween!  I hope you and your students enjoy.  Please leave me some happy feedback after downloading.  It's only free for a few days, so go get it now.  :)  

I'll be MIA from the blog world for awhile, but I'll post an update and some pics of Baby Jack when I get the chance.  Wish me luck....Tomorrow, I'm going to be a Mommy again!  Yay!

Currently Sept & Fall Printables!

I'm actually linking up with Farley on the 1st of the month.  That never happen.  :)
Listening: Hubby loves golf.  :)
Loving: I'm a BIG soda drinker, but I'm trying to cut back, and I just discovered La Croix "sparkly" water!  It really is good, and I'm hoping it helps me cut out those yucky Coke calories.
Thinking: Baby Jack will be here any day.  Life is going to be so different with two babies!  
Wanting: My mom gets in town on Wednesday.  I also have a hair appointment that day, so hopefully Baby Jack waits until after that to arrive.  Priorities.  :)
Needing: Energy.  I'm not sure what is more exhausting...the end of pregnancy or life with a newborn.  LOL.  
3 Trips: Mexico (We live in Texas.  It would be so easy!)
Europe...Not even sure where?  Just want to go and explore!
Alaska: Sounds awesome today since it's 100 degrees.  Ah!  
I've been working on a little goodie to help you ring in fall and the craziness of Halloween!  ;)  The best part about this pack is that it requires NO PREP.  You know there are those days when you need a fun, easy activity to engage your students for just a few minutes that requires no preparation!!!  These will be perfect for morning work, literacy centers, independent work, or on Halloween!!!  Here are a few samples... Check out my TpT store for more info!  
 Writing Prompts! 
Making Words...
Following Directions Activities...
 These are always my students' favorite!  I make extra copies so they can make up their own directions and play with a friend.  :)  
There are four different Thinking Map templates included as well.  
 Pumpkin Bubble Map
Hope these printables will help you survive the excitement of Halloween!  :)
