What's New - Barnes Crew

The bad thing about only blogging once every 3-4 months.....you miss the "good stuff" that happens each day, each week.  For the past 2-3 years our life has been an absolute blur for one reason or another.  And for the first time in a VERY long time, I feel as if its normalizing (I'm almost afraid to even type that statement!!!!).  Also, I decided this past week that if I spent as much time blogging as I did checking FB ---- there would be at least one post on here a week. 

 So, I thought I would start off with some of the little things that have occurred in our house over the past week.  First, Jenna peed in our neighbors yard.  In case you were wondering ---- you read that last statement correctly.  We were playing with our new neighbors.  Actually, it was the first time we had met them.  Jenna, being newly potty trained, didn't want to go indoors because that meant she would have to leave the outdoor fun.  And she didn't want to have an accident.  What better way to be efficient in both tasks than to drop your pants in the neighbors yard and pee on their lawn.  Either these neighbors will become our close friends, or they will never speak to us again.  I'll let you know how it plays out.

In other news, Katie is now registered at her new school.  And she tried another camp at the Y this week ---- this one was a total fail.  It is the first time she has EVER left a week of camp early.  She cried so much on day 4 I didn't have the heart to make her go back.  I'm pretty sure it was due to the fact that ZERO girls were in her group of 6 and many of the boys were about 10.  But she wouldn't give me many details.  She's a tough one to figure out some days.  I'm a bit nervous, but also hopeful that she can get off to a good start at her new school.

I'm rusty at this blogging stuff.....This one has been a complete babbled list of random thoughts.  More practice needed.  Hope to return soon.
