Busy Thursday

Yesterday was a VERY busy day.  I went on Jacob's field trip to the Western Museum of Mining and Industry.  It was very interesting, and I actually learned quite a bit. The kids seemed to enjoy it too. We learned about steam engines, watched a movie, panned for gold and did an exercise with cookies to further understand mining. Afterwards, we ate our sack lunches outside. It was a beautiful October day.

Later that evening, the Norrie's attended a sibling class hosted by the hospital. It was just a 1 hour class to get the boys used to and thinking about how to behave around the new baby. They learned how to put on a diaper, fold a swaddling blanket, watched a movie, took a hospital tour, read a story and at the end they each got a 'I'm a big brother" t-shirt. William wasn't interested at first but he warmed up quickly and behaved like the ham that he is. Jacob couldn't stop talking.
