We've had a bit of a stressful few weeks. In a rather sudden manner, Chris and I decided to pull Mya out of her preschool and enroll her in a new Montessori that opened around our base. We always wanted her in a Montessori, but it wasn't an option last year. Needless to say, we jumped at the opportunity. That being said, it has placed a burden on us. The hours are shorter, which means we need additional care in the afternoon and we had to revamp our morning routine. We are 1 week into it and the "new" routine is changing once again. Stressful! I can't wait until we are back to the mundane, every day is the same type life.
All that said because I needed to bring the girls to my first OB/nurse appointment. I loaded up the Ipad, Ipods and thought they'd sit contently. Ha. Not so much. I neglected to share with the nurse that we had not told our children about our impending change. Claire watched a movie for a few minutes, then nestled comfortably on my lap. Not minutes later, she whispered in my ear, " Momma, I think she is telling you that you have a baby in your tummy." I responded with "hmmm." So wise that one. She is a snoopity snoop and not much gets past her. She kind of let it go, but mentioned it again on the way out. I said, "I wasn't sure," and that we'll have to wait and see. She became quite excited and shared how much of a help she would be with a new baby. I know she will be. I will have two of the greatest helpers. They will make my life so much easier though I envision the need to referree with the baby as the desired item.
So many adventures await...
