    Montessori Resources

    As a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade teacher at a public Montessori school, I use the site, Montessori Print Shop, quite often. I can download a material (like informational cards about the planets) for a couple bucks, turn around and upload the pdf on the FedEx Kinko’s website, and then pick up the material printed in color on cardstock the next day.

    I recently learned that they also offer entire teaching manuals. I added the Practical Life one to my baby registry. It’s only $18 for lots of cool activities.

    Adorable Handmade Mobiles

    Oh, I am weak in the knees for these bamboo mobiles. So precious!

    Etsy is a godsend. I get a little overwhelmed if I am trying to look for something specific and have to browse through page after page, but I like just going to the homepage and taking a peek at the featured items. People are so gosh darn talented!

    Ta-da! Our sweet boy is here!

    After traveling to 20 states in utero, our little Henry Jones Cotner-Bradford decided to see the light of day on February 28, 2011. He weighs 9 pounds, 4 ounces and is 23″ long. We feel ecstatic and exhausted and exhilarated all at once. I will update you on all the details of my 45 hours of labor as soon as we’re back on our feet…

    Sending smooches and other love to you!
