Now that I am officially home with the little ones, I decided to take a few days to visit my family in philadelphia (most of you know thats my hometown, although now I live in long island). It's really not that bad of a drive, at least when you drive at night or when there is no traffic (...no traffic? when IS that seriously? ... in new york, there really is no rhyme or reason to it...). I got down in 2.5 hours which is me making excellent time, and just in time for travis' evening feed. It was wonderful. God totally hooked me up. {thank you!!} Originally, Jus was supposed to have a lot of late days at work because of his trial, so this week was supposed to make sense with my allowing him the freedom to work without worrying about us or the kids, while also providing us with the opportunity to visit my family {also my brother is getting married so he and his fiancé were going to use their spring break this week to talk shop and had asked if I would be able to make my way down to help out - again, more on those two later}. But of course Jus' trial got moved, so I felt more and more like I was going to miss him and that we really should be traveling together. But he assured me that he would still be able to use the time to work late without having to worry about me and the kids.
Anyhow, we made it down okay and we'll see how the rest of the week goes. Colin is enjoying most of his time here chasing around 'kitty', my parents' crazy, calico cat who is obviously not as fond of him as he is of her. She's already hissed at him once, but after his initial terrified response, it doesn't seem to be deterring him at all. He's determined to become friends. I'm highly doubtful, but it IS kind of cute to see him try.
