The Big Day

Tonight I picked up the three boys. Their names and ages are as follows (their real names are not allowed to be shared, to protect their privacy).

Matt 10yrs. Autistic
Tony 4yrs.
Zoe 2yrs.

So the pickup went great. I took them home and showed them their bedrooms. Tony was really excited that his pillow was Finding Nemo. Matt was even more excited that his pillow and sheets were Star Wars. :) After I showed them around the house we waited for Eric to get home. In the meantime, I gave the boys some fruit snacks and unfortunately the only ones I had were princess characters. Matt (who remember is autistic) was really confused by this. He asked me, "Mrs. Shelly, does this mean that I am going to be a girl if I eat these."

Once Eric got home we went to McDonalds and grabbed some food. We also stopped by the store and got some toys. On the way home from McDonalds the kids LOVED looking at Christmas lights.

Once we got home we had bath time (which was fun) and than it was off to bed. The kids slept really well. I was shocked!!

Overall, I would say that our first night as parents went fairly well... especially with going from 0 to 3 kids!!
