The boys got to go to their first day of school today! There was a tiny bit of ice on our windshield this morning but not enough for school to be cancelled- yay! I dropped them off at 9am and they both did great! It was hectic getting out of the apartment this morning and of course J needed to pee as soon as he was in the car, so we got unbuckled and ran back inside. Thankfully there was not traffic this morning and we were still early to meet the teachers.
In the car, D said "I've never lived in a house connected to other houses before." So I asked if he likes it and he responded yeah. But it seemed to be more of an observation than a positive or negative statement. Then after school, D asked to sleep in his own bed for nap, which means J needed to be in my room. I know D is trying to adjust to sharing a room with his brother and living in an apartment and I just hope it doesn't cause him to be worried about anything. D finally fell asleep after I made him get down from STANDING on top of his headboard!
While the boys were at pre-school from 9am-12pm, I was able to go to the front office at the apartment, write a few e-mails and do some more grocery shopping . Then daddy met us at home, so he could say hi to the boys and grab a quick lunch. Lily, our very energetic border collie, is also with us on this adventure and she has been doing well but as she becomes adjusted to the new place she is getting more energy! She has finally started to go the potty on a leash, which took a few days.
The boys loved their new school and took some pretty awesome naps again today, and then hubby came home and cooked dinner. Parmesan crusted tilapia (fresh farm raised tilapia from Mexico, I am against tilapia from India after reading a horrible article a while back about what they are fed) and some skillet red potatoes & red bell pepper. At first, D wouldn't touch his dinner but once provoked to taste the fish actually admitted he liked it- happens a lot around here!
Now trying to put the boys to sleep in the same room again... We put Jude's crib together so they are not sleeping on the floor next to each other and I picked up their room a little more. Hoping they can figure this out soon since it sounds like our 3 bedroom apartment will not be ready until 1-2 weeks after planned on Feb 5!
Sounds like a great adventure! They are lucky to have such a great Mommy and Daddy to go through it with! :)
