Four full days at home!

All is well at the Thomas Household. The kids are adjusting to new rules and surroundings! Alison tried to put a complete sandwich in the toaster, Jayson feels that the dogs should always be in their cages and for some reason shuting doors to the outside world is just not necessary! There have been a few battles and yes (da) I am tired...very tired! We have ventured out several times. Once to church and then to Walmart and for haircuts. Alison was not listening to well in Walmart when I said lets go (pash-le) about a hundred times, so I just left her standing there. Jayson and I went to the car (machina) and unloaded our goods and she still was standing in the store. Five minutes later I sent Jay in after her and when she got to me she gave me a big hug and said sorry. Don't think she will be ignoring "lets go" anymore (lol). The hardest thing right now is not to spoil them and to remember that we are their parents not their best friends. Today we are visiting my parents so that I could use the computer. They are loving thier time with them. Watching movies, snuggling, eating too much candy (all the things they are suppose to do with grandparents)!! I am rejoicing because of the complete silence I have right now. I think I might hide in this room for a few hours (just kidding). Next week will be busy for us! Doctor and Dentist appointments and visit to the school. My plan is to have them stay at the school for a couple of hours each day to get them familiar with their teachers and classmates. I will be driving them to school for awhile and then introduce them to the big yellow bus. I will try to keep you posted through my blog as much as possible, but please feel free to call or stop by and visit whenever you like. God Bless you all! Todd & Lori
