GUMPTION

We did a pretty good job today! We finally got our books out of storage and onto our bookshelves (only took us almost 4 months), played an actual board game with our kids, made a cake with Faith's Easy-Bake Oven, and I got a new video done.

Here's the footage of our trip to Huber Farm in Indiana from the Louisville trip a few weeks ago (seems like ages ago now). This one fell right into place. Looks and feels very appropriate, I think I captured it well.



All in all, not a bad day. Mari was great, Faith is still being very challenging, but she ended her day well.

OH, and how could we have forgotten to tell you this - 2 nights in a row, Robby and Hannah have slept through the night. Very nice.

Thanks for checking in, everyone.

Sleeping through the night--woo hoo!! I'm so happy for you--trust me, I know how monumental it really is for your mental health!

Also, love the picture of Steph ("summing up the trip")--Steph, you freakin' rock ;-)

Great video. The music during the train ride is just perfect.

Funny that our babies are 1 day apart and mine just had 2 nights in a row of 6 hour stretches of sleep. (The next night was not quite as good, but not bad either!) Maybe we're turning a corner?

Question of curiosity - how did Mari get the nickname Took? (really cute, by the way)
