Settling Back In

It has taken me most of the week to feel like I am settled back in. Getting my new 'office' completely set up has been a week long process and still not 100% there. I have been cleaning out and have a pile started of stuff to put on Craigslist hopefully sometime soon. Most of it is the boys' toys. I am finally tired of all the stuff with lots of little parts. I have had to hide the stuff in the laundry room under a towel, otherwise they would somehow find it and pull it all out again. I had bought some organizing stuff while in Texas from Ikea and Container Store and it is amazing the difference, when organizing is done right.
JB is rockin and rolling. There have been a few times where it really looked like he propelled himself forward while his knees were underneath him. Now time for the diligently scanning the floor at all times to make sure there is nothing that could go in the mouth. He still does not have a tooth (I did not get one until after my first b-day). He is definately later than the other two.
B has enjoyed being back at school. I did take him to try out for the school play but, I made the mistake of sticking around after I dropped him off. He was fine initially then came and sat beside me and decided he did not want to stay. Probably best because he was exhausted from the trip. Him and I are going to go see the play tomorrow, so will be good for him to see the finished product. B has also learned this week how to blow up balloons. This makes me so happy because when they do come across balloons, they have spent days asking me to blow them up. J has actually been able to get air in a couple of them too.
Just about warm enough to get the bike trailer out. Really ready to start taking the younger two while B is in school.
Totally random....Today I went out shopping and was picking up some baby food at Target. I hear all the time about what an obese nation we are and how school age children are starting to have health issues that normal adults have later in life. Well, I could not believe it today when I saw Macaroni and Cheese baby food! What in the world is up with that. Are the fruits and veggies just not tasty enough for 6 or 8 month old babies?
Here are a few more pictures from our trip that I never got downloaded.


These next two are from when we went to the Stockyards in Fort Worth. The boys thought this convertible cadillac was pretty cool and the second picture is of them in their longhorn balloon hats that a guy made for them. (B's high waters just kill me, that is why this evening I pulled out his 6/7 clothes)



This was taken at my aunt's house. They have an awesome yard with a really cool sidewalk that the boys used as a race track.
