MOPS

I've wanted to join a local MOPS group since Logan was born but because of one thing or another (being a full time babysitter for two years-ish) I haven't been able to go full time. This year, though, I'm not babysitting anyone so we have the ability to go! We got up and got ready to go this morning and I'm so glad we did. It's SUCH an encouragement to be around other mom's who are in the same stage of life I'm in right now. I love what I do, it's such a blessing and is the best job in the entire world, but sometimes I just need to know I'm not alone.

Logan constantly surprises me with how old she looks and acts but I had to hold back small tears today when she walked to the car like she was ready for school. I can't believe that she's almost THREE!
She's a little obsessed with this princess water bottle we got from the dollar section at Target. It's a great way to get her to chug tons of water. Back to topic at hand, though. When we got to the meeting we dropped Logan off at her class, first. Now, I didn't expect tears from her but I certainly didn't expect her to let go of my hand, run in and start playing without so much as a "goodbye, mom, I love you!" Sigh. I guess we've entered this phase of life.
Brody, on the other hand, was not so pleasant. I left him screaming and picked him up screaming. Though, they did say he was happy in between. I'm not sure if that was for my benefit, though. He usually does well in the church nursery and pretty much anyone he stays with, so I'm hoping maybe this will pass?

I tried to get a good one of the three of us this morning, but I think until the kids are old enough to fake happiness for pictures, this may be as good as it gets. :)
In other news, Brody cut his first tooth today. I discovered it tonight when trying to figure out why he was so snotty and grumpy this afternoon.

That's great! I started going before James was born. It really is so encouraging! :-)
