Sidney starts full day school today. For the first two weeks, she has been on a half day schedule to get used to being back in school. She has done well so far, but occasionally could use a nap.
That also means I start full day work schedule today. There are days I could use a nap, too, as you may imagine what it can be like with 20 four-year-olds in the room together.
Our weekend went well, and we spent some time with Jinni again. We went to the candle factory and took a little drive Saturday. We then returned home and cooked an entire dinner on the grill "American Style". We had baby back ribs, corn on the cob, and grilled new potatoes. It was delicious! Here is Sidney eating a leftover rib Sunday.
We also finished celebrating Sidney's birthday Saturday night with a cake and ice cream. As Kimber was offshore for her actual birthday, and the mail sort of lets packages trickle in (Thank You Mr. Gerry and Mrs. Mary Kaye!), the celebration spread itself out over the week.
Here you see Sidney trying on one of her birthday gifts (she loves being a princess fairy), as well as when she saw what mom and dad gave her. She asked for a trampoline and got one, and it fits nicely in our playroom/office.
Our initial plan for the weekend had been to go to Kongeparken, and amusement park south of here. The weather did not hold up for us, and the rain that started last week continued through the weekend. At least the rain led to some spectacular waterfalls on our drive to and from the candle factory!
