Life Returns To Normal

It's a new normal, but it still feels as close to normal as we have been in a long time. We get up every morning, get ready for school, drop Katie off at day care and Josh off at school then we head to school ourselves. At the end of the day Josh joins us at LR and we all go to daycare to pick Katie up. We go home, have dinner, relax for a bit, go to bed and repeat. Katie feels fine for the most part. She is still three, so she is prone to the occasional tantrum although they are typically short. A good nap in the afternoon really helps.

Katie really had a great end of the week once she started staying at daycare all day. She napped very well with the other kids, ate what they ate, and even started using the potty. She had been refusing to use the potty at home.

Today has been much the same. She has really been in a great mood with lots of energy to spare. It was my (Rick) birthday today so we dragged Katie out to breakfast, then to my parents house, then to her Nana's and grandpa Jerry's house for dinner. She is running on just a 15 minute nap that she snuck in on the way to my parents house, but she has more energy in her right now than Amy does. She is still dancing around the house as I write this.
