Routine Is Good...Ha! That may sound funny but now that we are in our second week with everyone back in school, it feels like we are back to having a daily rhythm. The kids were sick so much in Nov and Dec that it felt like we would never get back to some kind of routine. Jacob's class went on a fieldtrip today to the grocery store. They got to see live lobsters out of the tank. He thought it was very cool but also kind of scary. For the second week in a row, Julia has done great at her school. I think we are finally over the hump with her in terms of fits, etc. They are a lot less frequent and a lot shorter. Hallelujah!

Our great friends from Marietta, Kathy and Chris (and their son, Kyle) are coming this weekend. We are so excited! They are a lot of fun and very easy to hang out with. I have babysitters lined up for Saturday night and Sunday day so we can show them the sights. It ought to be a lot of fun! However, I have forewarned them that with only 1 bathroom, no reading material is allowed...ha!
