Well, this summer has been great! HOT, but great! We made it through with minimal sickness and a great adjustment to new day cares and back to work.
During hurricane Gustav, we lost power for seven days and were blessed enough to stay in Grosse Tete at Mr. Jimmy & Mrs. Kay's house. They had an enormous generator that allowed a/c to run all day and night which was a help because Gustav came on the heals of Izzy having a small respiratory infection needing breathing treatments.
Fall is here!! Can it get any prettier these last few days?!?! I am so excited about this time of year!! I can already start to smell the cold weather coming - well, as cold as it can get in South La.
After many weeks of prayers and decision making, Chris & I have decided that it would be better for our family if I were to stay home with the kids instead of having them in daycare. I had my full support from my Mom and Dad at work and my Mother-In-Law and Father-In-Law in the babysitting department. I think I am going to take Mrs. Kay up on her offer to keep the kids on Tuesdays & Thursdays so that I can work part time when needed. My last full day at the office as well as the kids last day at daycare will be October 24th.
I am excited about being able to have fun days with the kids and do things with other Moms that are fortunate enough to be able to stay home. Who knows, we may pop in to visit with the lots of you who read this post:-)
Well, the kids are getting so big!! Alexander slipped up and let me catch him reciting the "Pledge of Allegiance." Once I knew that he knew it, he got shy and wouldn't say it until I bribed him with a green popcycle - ha ha ha!! Isabella and Sophia are getting bigger by the day! Chris & I swear they grow over night and look bigger every morning! They are totally infatuated with their Daddy and don't hesitate to call out to him any and everytime they see him!! Of course, this has him like putty in their hands - oh, he better look out in 15 or so years!!
More later... Linz
