What a week.....



It was a busy week.... Here are pictures of Little Otis' first day at preschool. He was resistant, but finally gave in and posed for a picture. He is very happy in the 5 year old class... He feels like such a big boy and we are working on things like "responsibility" and "using our manners". He is really maturing.

We also have a new member of the family. It's larger than most of us, and it had a bumpy ride to our house, but it is here and now installed in our kitchen. Let me just tell you that finding your refrigerator dead on the first morning of preschool can be a bit stressful.... The only thing worse is to find that you have disposed of the only large cooler you have because it leaked. However, we survived and by 8pm that evening, we had a new refrigerator and a tired mom. Let me also just share with you that Home Depot does not stock "dream" refrigerators. You have to take what is there. So if you would like stainless steal or black, and can not live in a cooler for a week, order you new fridge before it goes out. Also, the Home Depot guys are not the smartest guys on the block (my dad pointed out that that's why they don't have better jobs), and when they say,"You don't need to tie that 2 ton appliance down", or "it will be fine if you don't go 100 miles an hour" they are incorrect. The last bit of wisdom I will leave on this subject is that you need to know how to tie down your own 2 ton appliance, or have it delivered. (Which if you can not live out of a cooler for a couple of days, again order early.) Well that was our week. Exciting huh?
