I met my parents yesterday afternoon and they took the three oldest boys home with them. I'll be joining them later today with Aubrey and Tanner. David is working today and then will have to work tonight at the hotel. I think we'll probably do a few fireworks at my parents - should be a fun time. Tanner is quite scared of the firecrackers and the neighbors have been doing their fair share of lighting them off - so it's been a fun time here.
I made it home safely from Chicago and had a good time. I did have a hard time getting caught up on my sleep this time, but think I've finally made it past the worst of it. As I stated before, it was a very interesting experience and really was a humbling one at that. I was able to do a little on my own during the day. The last morning I was there I took a long walk down Michigan Avenue down to Grant Park where the "Married with Children" fountain is. Then I walked up Lake Shore drive next to the lake. It was such a beautiful morning and there were lots of people out running, walking and biking. I enjoyed this time before heading back to KC.
Baseball has almost wrapped up and we just have one more game this week for each of the boys. It has really been a long season with all the rainouts this year, but I have really enjoyed watching them play.
David and I took Peyton to a behavior specialist this week to get some ideas on how to make things run a little smoother at home with him. He is our challenge child, but also one of our most loving children. She was able to give us some really helpful hints and so we're will be working hard to get things running a little better at home with him. He got to listen to her tips and hopefully that will help him to know what to expect.
I hope everyone has a great 4th! Be safe!
Dawn
