I can't believe it has only been a week since we returned from our Gustav evacuation. The ride home took 12 1/2 hours but the kids did well. The morning started off much as our trip up...the DVD player stopped working 15 minutes into the trip. After a meltdown, I had to explain for the next three hours that McDonald's doesn't serve Happy Meals this early (7am) in the morning. When we finally did stop for lunch, he was disappointed that they were out of Star Wars toys. I'm still in a sleep deprived haze and Ben is still recovering from working nights in St. Louis. Now he gets to work long days for the aftermath of Ike so it will be awhile before we are well rested. Jacob was able to start school on Wednesday but it was cancelled on Friday. It will resume tomorrow. Jacquelyn is 6 months old today and we have been trying rice since yesterday. I'm not sure if it's the texture or the taste but she doesn't seem to enjoy it. Due to the storm, she gets a reprieve on her shots. The MD lost her vaccines in the power outage following Gustav. We will call back in 3 weeks to see if they are back. Can't wait:)
