Another week

On Tuesday of this week, Rob came home and said, "Well, I still have a job!" The C.S. did more cuts this week, which was a complete surprise b/c they said they wouldn't do anymore after the last cut. However, it was either that or shut down for two months and hope to reopen next year. We don't really know how Rob, who has worked there for three years, made it through and people who have been there for 20 years were laid off, but we're praising the Lord that he still has a job. He even got more hours than usual this week. He hasn't worked on a Friday in a long time but worked until 10 yesterday (was supposed to be until one!). We had planned to go to the Milwaukee Public Museum to see dinosaurs (our current science topic) but we'll just postpone the trip. I took the kids to the library story hour instead. Not as exciting as dinosaurs, but I'm not complaining. We rather like living in a house rather than a box, so it's okay that Rob had to work instead.

We had two blessings this week. A close family member is expecting a baby in July and some friends of ours here were shocked to find out they are expecting as well. Babies are such a blessing!

And for the quote of the week: The boys were in the kitchen chatting with me as I washed the dishes when Anna came running in. She stopped at the door and said, "Ewww! Stinky boys!" Then she ran away laughing her head off. The boys and I were rather surprised, yet tickled, at her little outburst.

Anna is now the proud owner of a potty seat. Yep, we're starting to train her. We'll see how fast she catches on. I'm usually sad about each milestone we reach with her since she's our last (unless God exhibits His sense of humor in my direction) but this milestone I'll rejoice about! A world with no diaper changes....sign me up!
