red hot monkeys: October 2011
http://redhotmonkeys.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Art, animals, air hockey,a sweet baby and some teaching. Monday, October 31, 2011. Jeremy titled all of our trophies Hal-"Loo"-ween since we live in the Loo (Waterloo) and everyone else we hang with live in Cedar Falls. (We like to live dangerously I guess) Jeremy went as Bob Barker and I was his favorite contestant on the Price is Right! So the party was a great success- we played some fun games:. Last was "Stick it"- when we played pin the wart on Waterloo's favorite witch. Michelle Bachmann! One thing...

red hot monkeys: A challenging few weeks
http://redhotmonkeys.blogspot.com/2012/05/challenging-few-weeks.html
Art, animals, air hockey,a sweet baby and some teaching. Tuesday, May 08, 2012. A challenging few weeks. I can't say that this was a great semester, with all the politics at UNI. Some of my friends have lost their positions and others are moving on to greener pastures or worse being forced to switch to unwanted positions within the university. My graduate program in art education has been suspended indefinitely. not sure what that even means? Here's a sweet photo of Sidney to end my blog post. He is ...

red hot monkeys: Spring Break??
http://redhotmonkeys.blogspot.com/2012/03/spring-break.html
Art, animals, air hockey,a sweet baby and some teaching. Monday, March 19, 2012. Where did it go? I know- I was writing a 50 page paper on civic engagement with pre-service teachers in art education! But we had some good times that week too! Jeremy, Sid, and I spent as much time as possible outside because Sidney LOVES to drive his new car! We went hiking around the Hartman Reserve Nature Center and took many walks around the neighborhood. We are ready to do some biking but need a baby trailer. Subscribe...

red hot monkeys: January 2012
http://redhotmonkeys.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Art, animals, air hockey,a sweet baby and some teaching. Friday, January 06, 2012. Six days into January- we are all still healthy and happy! Jeremy got some much needed support in his classroom when the school finally hired a part-time teacher to help with his class sizes. He had around 35 talented and gifted students per class. whew! He will now have half that many students in a class in two out of three sections. Big relief! In any case, we are super excited because Grandma Sue is coming to stay a few...

red hot monkeys: May 2012
http://redhotmonkeys.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Art, animals, air hockey,a sweet baby and some teaching. Monday, May 14, 2012. Sidney is closer to walking, this weekend, he took several steps and stood on his own for small amounts of time. It's so exciting to watch him grow into a real toddler! He seems to have a real hollow leg! Tuesday, May 08, 2012. A challenging few weeks. My colleague in art education told me last Monday he took another position in the public schools and now I am not sure who I will be working with. I am very sad to see him g...

red hot monkeys: Happy birthday to my sweet baby
http://redhotmonkeys.blogspot.com/2012/04/happy-birthday-to-my-sweet-baby.html
Art, animals, air hockey,a sweet baby and some teaching. Wednesday, April 11, 2012. Happy birthday to my sweet baby. I thought I would be sad that a whole year passed so quickly with Sidney, but honestly I am not. He is more fun everyday and we understand each other better and continue to have more fun and learn new things together. Yes, it goes fast, but boy was it a fun year! We are so lucky to have such a wonderful friend Jason, who came up Friday night and helped bake, sew, and clean up for the party!

red hot monkeys: February 2012
http://redhotmonkeys.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Art, animals, air hockey,a sweet baby and some teaching. Monday, February 27, 2012. We have had some exciting FIRST moments at our house. Sid's FIRST tooth came in on Feb 15th, and I have been trying to get a picture of it for days. I bet I took more than 70 pictures, trying to capture that tiny, white, bottom tooth so here is my best attempt! Yes- see what happens when you leave the baby home with Dad! Sunday, February 12, 2012. After 3 doctor's visits and 7 boxes of kleenex, I am finally feeling that I...

red hot monkeys: December 2011
http://redhotmonkeys.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Art, animals, air hockey,a sweet baby and some teaching. Thursday, December 29, 2011. December was a rough month. I will not be sad to say goodbye to this month. We started out the month with worst 24 hour flu in the history of the Miller-Prouty household! Taking turns caring for a baby with the flu is the pits but missing your own birthday party on top of that is the worst! We scrambled to finish the semester and get ready for the holidays when- bam! I needed new brakes and tires! We went back to the do...
