Still Septembering

 Chris

This time it’s most important to tell everyone that he is done with school and joined us once again! He left right after his test and made it home about 9pm which was after the girls were asleep. They woke up to tel me something and found a daddy! They are so excited to have him back and Shay never wanted to go anywhere unless he was coming with us. It was the first day she was okay with Claire leaving her behind after getting on the bus. We also had an official job offer in Farmington Utah and hope to having this work out to transfer back up here after a year. 

Claire

She had another week of school and started learning about colors so we dressed her to match with the lessons. She did crafts and on Wednesday made a sun special for daddy since that’s the first day he waited for the bus with us. Now that Chris is home, she gets to ask for shoulder rides and a lot more fun play things that I was never good at. She came home from church singing a song she learned but as soon as I tried to capture a video she got silly…she likes to Shay she just doesn’t know something when I ask her. A lot of times she doesn’t remember things from school, like new friends names, and will say she doesn’t know. 

Shay

As I mentioned, she was so happy to have her daddy back and convinced him to come to the library and the store. She had to visit him when he was working out, and always asked where he was that first day. It’s cooled down a little but now she sits in his lap for prayer time and Claire wants to sit in his lap so I scooch in close and pretend to sit on his lap too. We all missed him a lot but I don’t think Shay knew that’s why she was always grumpy, she doesn’t ask to go back to her house as often but it does still happen. 

Activities

There was a fair in town for Eastern Idaho and we went on Thursday night looking mostly at the animals. The girls loved the feeding/petting area and wanted to ride on the pony’s but it was getting dark by the time we got to that area. We had gone with their cousins and had to get home to get to bed! We got to play with them for a loooong time on Friday because I was babysitting and mooching internet to hunt for places to live. Then on Saturday morning Chris and I went to Pocatello for a race and I got first place in my age group!
