Settling In

Well, the sleep situation is getting a little better. The girls went back to school today--none of them were fun to wake up but we got them there on time. We got back last night from a few days at the beach, after having a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner at my parents' house.

Jack took the beach in stride just like he has done just about everything else. There are always some fun events near our little beach town on Thanksgiving weekend and we managed to hit them all. The little local theater plays "The Polar Express" free so Jack saw his first movie in a theater. He did pretty well, but was more interested in the popcorn. The next day we went to a magic show done by Mrs. Claus and then Santa arrived. Pretty exciting stuff. That evening we went to the tree lighting and caroling and by that time Jack had reached his limit. So he spent the time in the car with Charlie and the girls and I got to see the tree lighting. We did have one day of decent weather and the kids got to dig in the sand and wade in the little river that leads to the ocean, which are where these pictures were taken.

Tomorrow Jack will spend a little time in preschool and then Charlie has to go back to work on Thursday, I go back on Monday and life goes on!
