Some days are better than others....

And today, my friends, is one of those days! After much stress and headache, after millions of calls and waiting lists FINALLY Gwen got into a preschool. So what if it is like the third preschool on my list, she got in to one! And since I adhere to advice found in fortune cookies (mine today said "if you want to succeed you must act today" or something) I am not going to hold out for one of the other preschools, I am going to go with this one dangit. Who cares that no one else that I know has ever sent their kids there. It'll be fine. Desperate times....

And in other shocking news....my dad called out of the blue yesterday and told us that in January 2010 he is taking our whole family (as in my siblings, not my children, thank goodness) on a cruise! Hello! Awesome! Better yet it leaves out of Galveston so Blaine and I only have to pay the taxes (and for someone to watch the children.....takers?). Which is so awesome because, if I haven't griped about it already, Blaine and I were planning a cruise for January 2009 (the same exact cruise actually) when we found out about our exciting little bundle of joy coming Feb 2009. Isn't that so exciting? I have never, not even once, been on a vacation with all of my siblings (my oldest brother is about 18 years older than me). So......AWESOME!

Anyway, it's been a great 18 hours. Plus there's no tax on clothing today in Texas. Awesome.

We were planning to go on a cruise in January 2009 and were going to leave the triplets with my parents... until we found out about OUR bundle of joy. I'm totally jealous that you've got another one planned.

What preschool did you get into?
