Sunday, Sunday, that's my funday!

The girls are having a really hard time adjusting back to Central Daylight Time! They refused to fall asleep last night, so Sunday morning was no cakewalk. We dragged them out of bed at 7:30 and barely made it to church in time for me to play with the orchestra.

It's so nice to be able to exercise in music. It's been a long time since I've done any group music work, and it feels comfortable to be working with so many talented people. I found out that the woman who heads up the orchestra is the orchestra director for the middle school here in C.S. I hesitated to mention to her that I taught violin. There is nothing more annoying than people who use churches to "network" and get ready made clients, so I didn't mention it to her at all, but yesterday, I was talking to the bassist, and we got talking about teachers and stuff like that. I guess the director overheard us because she asked me if she could put me down on her list of violin teachers at her school. Isn't that just way cool?

Well, for all of you that want a baby update: Georgie is now fully sitting up on her own. Right now, she's sitting in the middle of the living room eating rice crackers, and cooing and giggling. Wow, my little baby is already growing up. Kate and I picked out a new toy for her yesterday. She loves it, and spent about 45 minutes playing with it when we first gave it to her.


I wish I could post her bathtub photos, but I think my blog would get shut down over something like that, so I'll have to email them to the grandmas. I can't leave Georgie unattended anymore. She actually manages to scoot across the room these days, so floor management has become my obsession. I use to think my mom was nutty because she always noticed the trash on the floor, but now, I realize SIX kids will do that to you! Old habits die hard, right?
Speaking of being a mom...my mom always use to shake her head and say, "What I do for my kids..." and yesterday, I understood the full meaning of the word. Kate wanted to see Monsters Vs. Aliens REALLY badly. She begged for it. Well, they shot the thing in 3D. Sigh...I knew that motion sickness was in my future, but I took her to see the movie yesterday afternoon. What I do for my kids...I only recovered after a long nights sleep and a large quantity of 7up.
