I am..

  Hello!

For new friends, I'm Kaitlyn, and I've been blogging at Smiles and Sunshine for over 2 years. :)

 I teach 4th grade in New England, and this will be my 8th year of teaching (and my 4th in 4th grade!)

I LOVE to read! (Both paperbacks and Kindle!)

I have a slight book buying problem...

This is maybe half-I have 3 more bookcases out of sight!

Almost at 800 books-definitely by the end of the year!

And those are just the adult books-I have kids books stashed away as well!

Clearly, there are issues there :)

I'm also a hooker...

My friend gave me these for my birthday-aren't they gorgeous?!

If you want to see more of my completed projects, click here. (Or go through old Monday Made Its!)

In fact, I dabble in lots of crafts!

Painting:

Cross-stitching:

Making cards:








Stamping:

If it is crafty, I've probably tried it once!

I have a sister who is 20 and a junior in college.  She is going for business psychology. :)

I like to spend lots of time with my friends PJ and TV...we hang out on the couch a lot!

I'm homebody (and an introvert), so I spend most of my time there. I get my people fix at work. :)

So, some new things about me!

Smiles and Sunshine,
Kaitlyn
