Superman was very excited about his first Alabama game. We went to my parents' house to see the game. He was so hyped about it that he fell asleep about 2 minutes before kick-off. He was sitting with Uncle Joey for the first part of the game. 
He has three Alabama outfits, and we worked really hard all day not to mess up the one he was wearing in case it was the one that would help the team win. I explained how "lucky" outfits work. I hedged my bets and told him that if the team loses it may because he had on the wrong outfit. I explained that we can only lose 2 times during the year or he will be out of "lucky" outfits. Right now, we are wearing the others during the week and saving the one outfit for game day. So, don't blame us if Alabama loses. We are doing our part.

We are doing our part.We went to my parents' house Saturday to spend a long weekend. Things were going very well until Alabama's governor started talking about reversing the flow on traffic on I-65 and making it northbound in all lanes. That indicated to me that I had better hurry up and get back to Florida before they closed all my roads. I didn't want to be breaking through some police barricade at the state line with Superman in a stroller and Rosy's insulin in my breastmilk insulated bag waiting on Hubby to pick me up on the other side. I remember stories of people not being allowed back into New Orleans right before Ivan and I was not going to be caught on the wrong side of the state line if they closed the roads and borders. So, I loaded the kids up Sunday morning and headed home.
Thankfully the weather was fairly mild and we didn't see a lot of hurricane activity. Hubby and I woke up a few times during the night to check the weather reports, but it really wasn't as bad as most thunder storms.
Since we couldn't do anything else anyway, we went ahead and had school today. We are planning to take 2 or 3 days off later this month when we go to St. Stephens to dedicate Superman. I took Rosy and Superman outside this morning while the wind was still blowing. It made his hair stand up like a little mohawk! When we came back in, I tried to put him in his Jumperoo so that Rosy and I could have school. He refused to be put down and so I had to prop him up in his Boppy pillows and let him attend Phonics class. 
It was really cute because I was teaching with Rosy in front of me and Superman to the right of me on his pillows. Twinkle is not in the picture, but she was sitting right to the left of me. We actually had 3 students in Phonics class today! But, that's not unusual for us.
