Happy 'Monday' everyone:)

Yes, I need to remember it's a short week....I have day one of transitioning a 2.5 year old and an 18-month-old, and both are currently hysterical...in my excitement at finally having all nappers again (vs the 4,5 and 6 year olds I've had all summer) I seem to have forgotten that just because they USUALLY nap doesn't mean they'll do it on day one for me. I need another coffee...

And happy first day back to school for (most of) our kids!

Thankfully my day is going well. I have a wicked head cold and had a 2 year old dcg start her first day today. I also have 8 kids today, the first time I've had that many. My max number had been 7 up til this point. It was a busy morning but everyone played nicely and were super kind to the new girl - which was awesome. The new 2 year old also went to sleep without any fuss at all, after a few minutes of crying when her mom left she just started playing with everyone like she had been coming her for months already! Thank goodness, because I thought this was going to turn into a nightmare day!
