We are bracing ourselves for the BIG STORM…all I know for now is that it’s seriously wet outside and our lights are flickering a ton. Apparently the winds are supposed to get up to 60mph at midnight. Who knows what tomorrow will bring. Our basement is flooded with about 3 inches of water and it’s pouring from the hill behind us and down our basement steps. Fun on laundry day for sure.

The kids are doing ok with the lights going out, we have plenty of candles going at this point and we actually have the living room lights turned out and are letting the boys play with their flashlights while we watch the Seahawks game.

As for the Carlos potty update…we had 3 accidents today but in his defense, they were all on the way to the potty. So, we go onto day #3 tommorrow. Amazingly, he stayed dry during the night. No turning back at this point!

Levi had his holiday party at school and I got to go. It was neat to see him interacting at school, although today he was really “off” and not tending to pay attention. So with our upcoming trip, he will have 3 weeks off of school. Should be interesting to see how he does with that. I think with the holidays and the trip, he’ll be fine. He’s all about routine, though, so this will certainly challenge him.
