Fay, Fay Go Away!!!!!!!

It's been quite a week of firsts...

TJ said his first sentence 2 days ago. He grabbed some bananas that were on our kitchen table and asked "What is this?". I believe my mouth is still open in complete shock. Of course he hasn't said it since...

TJ and Olivia are experiencing their first tropical storm, Tropical Storm Fay. (Thankfully they are not experiencing their first hurricane!) They have been home from school for 2 days now and we are just finding out that school is closed tomorrow as well. Thankfully, when they are off Terry is also off because they follow the same schedule as BCC. The kids seem fine...they are just getting some extra playtime in the house...TJ took a loooong nap this morning and they both have enjoyed running around the house in their raincoats. Anyway, Fay came yesterday and has stalled over Brevard County...it has been raining for 1.5 days straight and it doesn't look like it's going to stop anytime soon. To tell you the truth, it hasn't been that bad - just extra rainy and windy. No thunder or lightning...no damage or flooding around our house...and we haven't lost any power. It's been a good first tropical storm for the kids! I just wish it would leave already!!!!

Here are some pics of TJ and Olivia (in her raincoat), of some palm trees blowing in the wind in front of the townhomes across the street from our house, and of the grassy area (which is now a lake) across the street from our house.

TJ & Olivia might wind up with more "snow days" than we end up with up here!

Glad to hear everything is ok.
