Chad's family was with us through to the 3rd...their time here was thoroughly enjoyed...even if the tireds and crankies kicked in once they left! We still had a lot going on with Chad working overnights, a wet bed, making projects the kids had gotten at Christmas, and all the other busy-ness that comes with three kids! Lydia's speech really started to explode during these days..."teapot" "Princess" and just exerting herself more and more to be heard and seen by her brother and sister...they aren't able to boss her quite as much as they would like to anymore! We did our best to keep the activities schedule and just feel "in the groove".
