Henson Happenings: We survived!

We made it through the 1st week of MDO, not to mention that this week was also the big children's consignment sale at church, which I worked WAY to much, but did manage to get Jack a couple of good things in return, just not sure all that manual labor was worth it! Sara Ann and I decided that working the Wednesday night shift (6pm-10pm) during receiving would be a good idea, well we were so wrong... More stress worrying about getting the cute stuff we saw ahead of time, 2 pregnant girls and manual labor do not mix, and 10pm is way to late for said manual labor! I worked during the sale Friday morning while Jack was in school, and that was much better timing. I will remember that next year!

Jack had a great day at school Friday, and I could tell when I walked down from the gym to get him that he is quickly warming up to his teachers. He has been a much easier child the last few days, and I can not help but think school has a little something to do with it! He still cries when I drop him off, but I know that will pass soon!

Our week was so busy with something going on every night and trying to adjust to school. I also resumed taking orders with Tootlebugs on the 1st and had planned to do so until about mid October, just to give me time to get the 30+ things done for my boys before John Henry or Henry (the name thing is...well... a totally different post for another day! HA!) gets here, well after 72 orders I decided I better stop now unless I wanted to be working while in the hospital having a baby!

So the boys played in their pjs, watched way to much football, and I worked! And yes, has you can see we are still Choo-choo OBSESSED. He now knows most of their names and will recite them on command. Of course I must thank Thomas the Train for helping Jack learn his Aunt Em's name and his brother's name.
