The Swainstons: February 2010

http://theswainstons.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html

Musings and whinings from Tennessee. Saturday, February 27, 2010. I realize the end of the month is already gone and it seems like it has flown by. Cory is taking 18 credit hours, I'm student teaching and Madeleine doing her school thing, it is a miracle that dishes get done. We are trying to keep our head above water. I change placements in the middle of March, if I pass of course. Thursday, February 4, 2010. We All Fall Down. So I have a grasp on my sanity once again. we'll see how long it lasts!

The Swainstons: April 2012

http://theswainstons.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html

Musings and whinings from Tennessee. Monday, April 16, 2012. For Easter this year we went to visit my sister in the D.C. area. Madeleine doesn't get to see her cousins often, and I was very happy to see that they played so well with each other. We had a great time, and were sad to call it so short, but we had to get back to 'real life'. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

The Swainstons: January 2010

http://theswainstons.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html

Musings and whinings from Tennessee. Sunday, January 17, 2010. Cory and I are attempting to get Madeleine to eat more than just crackers and cheese. We get her to try some bites of whatever is on my plate during dinner. When we were going out the other night, Cory said, "Madeleine you will be taking two bites of whatever Mom orders for dinner." Madeleine, "Mom can you order just white rice then? Sunday, January 3, 2010. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

The Swainstons: Kitchen Art

http://theswainstons.blogspot.com/2012/07/kitchen-art.html

Musings and whinings from Tennessee. Monday, July 9, 2012. I forgot how long it takes to center a print. But I liked how they turned out. Our kitchen has a lot of browns, so I thought the burgundy mat board and the red and blue in the painting would add some color. All three pieces are on the same long wall, and I think it turned out well. July 9, 2012 at 3:22 PM. It is weird being a grown-up. Thinking, do I want this here. FOREVER? July 10, 2012 at 5:03 AM.

The Swainstons: May 2012

http://theswainstons.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html

Musings and whinings from Tennessee. Monday, May 14, 2012. We bought a house. a HOUSE. I know we are in our 30's and this is a normal adventure for people, but I really can't believe that we are at this point. We are 'for reals' settling into Kingsport, TN? Don't get me wrong. We love it here. Madeleine is doing great, Cory loves his job, and the people are so friendly and nice. I am grateful that things have worked out, so that we can buy a house in this beautiful country. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Swainstons: Keep On Swimming

http://theswainstons.blogspot.com/2010/05/keep-on-swimming.html

Musings and whinings from Tennessee. Monday, May 10, 2010. Cory had his last final for spring today. He is very excited to have a few days off. I'm in my last week of student teaching, and then next week I'll be preparing for the interview/presentation thing to exit the program. Madeleine will be done the 21st. We have turned into VERY exciting people. Overall we are doing well, just extremely busy. We are both looking forward to being done, and are hoping that things work out for us.

The Swainstons: April 2009

http://theswainstons.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html

Musings and whinings from Tennessee. Friday, April 3, 2009. Let the Moving Preparations Begin! Here is a picture of Madeleine before she went to a friends princess party. She is also wearing her new glasses she got last month. She does not have to wear them all the time, but does because she can "see better" with them. She is definitely growing up.
