It was with slight sighs and rolling of the eyes that we took the twins in for a visitation today. Selfishly, we had wanted today to be a full holiday for our family and had planned to be together and do something fun, the six of us. However, this date worked for everyone else involved, so we made it happen too, and it wasn't a big deal.
Little Guy and Miss A were treated to the San Antonio Children's Museum while the twins were at the visit. It is such a neat place. The kid-powered elevator is awesome to see at any age. Our kids especially love the child-sized grocery store in the basement. If you've never been there, and you have young kids, it's definitely worth the visit! Here's the website: www.sakids.org
After playing for several hours there, we took the kids to a Mexican restaurant we were unfamiliar with on the River Walk. It was a beautiful day to sit outside, overlooking the river, counting the boats that floated by, eating chips and salsa. Well, Little Guy actually just ate salsa. Actually he drank it straight from the bowl. So silly!
It was priceless to get some alone time with the oldest two and my husband. I love watching them get older, and how they are becoming their own little people. We had such a blast together. I feel so blessed.
The girls each had one accident during the visit, which the lady walking them out made sure to tell me. (I still can't figure out if she works for the clinic that is supervising the visits or if she's a therapist overseeing the case or something else. She's always there to take them in when we drop them off and brings them back out when we pick them up.) That's an improvement from last week. They have been doing so well at home with potty training - maybe each one has an accident every other day or so, and only if they don't make it to the bathroom on time.
We're back at it again this Thursday for the final pre-hearing visitation. I haven't heard how they have been going. We're supposed to have had someone visit our house as well, to see the twins in our home environment as compared to in the visits, but that hasn't happened or been scheduled.
Till next time!
