WHY OH WHY

So, here we are on Monday morning, school day no less, and Logan is up at 4 AM?!?! What is up with that?? Not to mention that he woke up Justus in the process. 2 out of 3 kids are awake, and neither of them Abby???? Some mornings just make you go hmmph.

The weekend was fun. My parents and Steves mom were up for a visit. Dad worked like a madman to get our back deck built. They will be up on Thanksgiving weekend to get it finished. We are moving our outside set of stairs over to the other deck since it currently goes right up onto the garage!? Thankfully dad is handy, and is able to help us with that. We'd lose our insurance if we didn't at least change the stairs up a bit...and we figured if we were going to invest money, we might as well do it the way it should be done rather than fix up something that we weren't all that fond of.

The kids seemed really tickled to see everyone on Saturday morning, it was a surprise to them since we've learned NOT to tell them anything exciting the night before since they'd be up before dawn. The kids showed off their new skills, enjoyed birthday cake, and had a fun time with everybody.

Today Justus sees his infant development worker. Just to make sure everything is still on track. Hopefully the early morning doesn't mess his schedule up too much and he's in fine form for Linda. Other than his hip problems, I'm pretty happy with the way he is developing. I hope she feels the same way. I find it so intriguing to watch him grow and develop. We see things in him that we never saw in our own kids. It's fun to be a part of this, and to be able to treasure it all the more.

I hope for a nap sometime today. I just wish Steve could too. He's off to Hamilton to meet with Stan Porter about his thesis and then to Niagara to do some running around for me. He's so great :) Wouldn't change him for anything.
