Five on Friday - Split Personalities

Hallelujah - It's Friday! What a week it has been. I am just not good at living a double life as a stay at home mom and a professional educator, which is what I do from late July to early August, until my kiddos go back to school. I'm trying to put on a brave face and woman up, but it's emotionally hard. I just don't like leaving my babies, but I loooove my job. Anyways, I'm enjoying dipping my toe back into the school life and soaking up every minute I can being at home with the kids. Here's a look at my week:

ONE.



I was talking with a friend about business cards for her business and just sort of put this design together from some inspiration she threw my way. I also did a tip/thank you card for her along the same theme and I'm working on a fun design for a sweet coworker now. I am having so much fun playing around with Photoshop - it's a nice creative outlet. So how can I turn this into a business?

TWO.



I attended a PLC symposium on Monday and Tuesday, so while my babies were in the excellent care of my in-laws (thank you!!), I got to mingle with professionals for the first time in a while. I took the opportunity to wear my gorgeous new LLR Amelia dress and totally forgot my Lipsense! This dress is effortlessly fancy, I'm in love.



One of the breakouts I attended went over the workshop model in math...I am unbelievably excited to collaborate with my math teachers and try this in my classroom! Teacher nerd moment.



Day two, I did remember my Lipsense and LLR outfit number two was a classic and a black(!) Madison, complete with wedges. I do miss dressing up during the summer!

THREE.



Wednesday and back to SAHM role. We took a trip to the choochoo and fun was clearly had by ALL.





I forgot to mention, Zoey's been potty trained for two weeks! It was easy....and we sold her crib earlier this week, so she just really isn't a baby anymore. Gosh that happens fast.


I finally got Luke's six months photo done! It gets later and later each month....



Zoey also made muffins with minimal help from me! She's getting really good in the kitchen.

FOUR.



Totally random, but I went to get my car inspected (nothing like leaving it until the last minute) and it came with a free car wash (in which my car has not been washed since purchasing it 2 years ago). I had forgotten how terrifying these auto car washes can be! However, my car looks amazing.

FIVE.



Comparison is the thief of joy. I have to remind myself of this all the time. Just do you. 

Now I'm off to spend time with my sis-in-law, Kim! Happy Weekend! Linking up!



See y'all next week!
