Today was one of those days where I was very productive and got dinner taken care of before I was even dressed for the day! I got all of this prepped and into the pot for crock pot beef strogonoff. (I later realized I forgot the dash of worchestershire, so that annoyed me.)
…
Nothin’ much to write about or share today, but here’s a pic of each girl, and the sunset on the way to church tonight!
…
Little Baby Sassy Pants didn’t want her sister to stand by her for pictures, and then she told me (again today), that she couldn’t “cheese” because she was eating. So that’s what that first face is about 😉 Also, the Christmas tree lights just don’t show up in pictures sometimes (I’m not technological enough to understand Jeff’s explanation), but it drives me crazy!
…
Wow, it was so rough to get out of bed today. I was so tired, but also so warm & cozy in bed! The girls were both wearing super soft new penguin sweaters from Nana today. But Addie Pie wasn’t in the mood for pictures.
…
It was so cold and rainy and yucky this morning. I went early at 8am for praise team, but Jeff and the girls were close behind me, because he was on the GC kids sound booth, and had to be there at 8:30. I was tickled and surprised to see Addie in her fancy coat and slippers, but hey, she’s still super cute.
…
Delicious orange rolls for breakfast this morning. Now that the girls are getting bigger and eating more, I have to make two cans to feed all of us. (As of 10pm tonight, there are only two of these left…)
…
Last night, Emerson actually stayed at Grammy’s house for a sleepover. All the way home, Addison kept looking over, saying stuff like, “Emmie! Get Emmie!” Poor girl was worried about and missing her sister. Then this morning, with only one kid in the house, we got busy doing some more chores. First, I watched “Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life,” while folding about five very overdue loads of laundry.
…
Very thankful for this sweet family of mine. And very thankful for all the great family time we had together today!
…
Set my alarm this morning just to get up and take the overnight breakfast casserole out of the fridge (that I put together last night), to come up to room temp for an hour before baking… Then threw it in the oven for almost an hour, and it came out so great and delicious.
…
I only had one tiny girl to drop-off at school this morning, but she was very sweet. The other bigger girl went to spend the day with her Grandmommie.
…
Addie was actually a little grumpy at first for pictures, but then Uncle Bo made her laugh, and she was so happy then!
…
Today was Missions Sunday at church. That meant a great service with a special guest in big church, and GC Kids did a missions parade, representing all of their chosen countries.
…
This morning, my cold finally caught up with me, and I was totally and completely exhausted. I could barely wake up around 8am, and then when I moved to the couch, I kept falling asleep while the girls played. Luckily, Jeff took care of the girls and picked up our groceries, and let me rest, and then I was finally ready to get up and moving around 11am. And surprise, I’m back on my roasted garlic and tomato toast bit again.
…
These silly trippies and their silly faces were showing of their “Letter N” bags before heading into school.
…
I’ve been feeling very under the weather today (major congestion, and lots of pressure in my head), so I’m not really writing a real post tonight. Just dropping in to show you how cute these pumpkin spice girls were in their matching dresses…
…
Jeff took Emerson to school this morning just like usual, and she had a good drop-off.
…
After a nice three-day weekend, we were actually up & at ’em ready to get back to the routine this morning.
…
For our 3-day Veteran’s Day weekend, we took the girls camping at Falling Waters State Park, over in Chipley. This was Emerson’s third camping trip, but Addison’s first! We spent the majority of Friday packing and loading everything up, and finally got on the road around 3pm. Thanks to Jeff’s dad Dave (aka PopPop) for loaning us his truck for the weekend!
