Dandelion Wishes
Emerson got really excited when she saw this dandelion when we got out of the car this morning. She couldn’t quite get it to blow away like she wanted, but she looked both hilarious & adorable trying to do it!

So, I actually had to stay home from church (and pretty much everything) today, for some tests the doctor has me doing (and we’ll just leave it at that to avoid TMI, but basically it’s to make sure I’m not developing preeclampsia towards the end of my pregnancy). So after I got Jeff and Emmie ready and out the door, I made myself some fried eggs and a couple pieces of my low-carb Sola bread, and this was super yummy.

Jeff and the boys were up and moving early, and Nana came over to pick them up to drive them back to their mom. Of course Emmie and I were up early too, and after they left, we headed to Walmart for our early morning grocery pick-up. After getting all the things puta way, I made our usual egg sandwiches for breakfast. I finally got a hold of the low-carb Sola bread, and it was good! So I got to have a whole sandwich today, and it felt so special!

When Emerson heard the pouring rain outside first thing this morning, she decided she obviously needed to wear her rain boots today, regardless of the fact that if it was in fact raining, then she would not go outside during the school day. But she’s a very strong-willed girl, so we just roll with her choices sometimes!

We got to do drop-off with the baby girls this morning, and everyone was so sweet and happy and excited…until we got to their classrooms at least 😉
Also, Emmie put more stamps on her arms this morning while I was getting ready, and when I saw her I said, “Oh, Daddy let you do some more stamps, huh?” And she just kinda whispered, “No, Daddy was asleep.” 🙂 Also, so wore some new (hand-me-down) biker shorts under her short dress today, and she loved them, and she looked adorable in them.
Emmie was sad at drop-off, but shortly after, we received a photo of her playing and smiling and happy! And this photo of her with the little chef’s hat just kills me!
Jeff and his mom took the boys to Urban Air for some fun adventure times this afternoon. Then Jeff and the boys picked up Emmie from school just a tiny bit early. They were out on the playground when they got there, so Jeff snapped these photos of her with her besties, and I love them all so much, I couldn’t even narrow them down! (I mean, her and Andrew look like their on a date, so they need to chill out with that, but it’s still so stinking adorable!) These little school pals are the cutest!
And just look at all these bouncy little curls!
They had gotten an icee at Urban Air and shared some with Emmie on the way home, and she was in ice cold sugar heaven.
Nita & Jeff ended up taking the boys out to lunch today, so we used last night’s leftover pork to make BBQ sammies (well, no bread for me) for the fam, since they didn’t end up eating it at lunch. Some corn and greens beans rounded out the meal, and it was yummy. Emerson ate an entire sandwich, her entire corn, and some green beans. And then ate a slider-size sandwich on a Hawaiian roll. The girl went crazy! And all three boys ate two sammies and two baby corns.
She colored all over the walls with her special bath-time crayons for a while, and I sat on the (closed) toilet and read while she entertained herself.
She wanted another Gogurt, but they were all gone – I did however find her a cinnamon applesauce pouch, and she accepted that. She was all excited like, “I love cinnamon & apples!” And then after her first taste, she was like, “WOW! This is yummy!”
Jeff fell asleep in the recliner super early tonight, at like 7:30pm, and then went to bed around 8:30pm. We hadn’t yet done my insulin shot before he went to sleep though, so it looks like I’ll have to do it myself for the first time tonight. So here’s hoping it goes well, and I can be a big girl tonight!
I love this new, cute little spring floral dress Emmie wore today, especially with her jean jacket with it. She’s just the cutest thing ever!

My girl was in a great mood this morning, and we had a super great, very easy drop-off. Her and I were both wearing olive green today, and when Meg sent us photos of the triplets, they were wearing olive green today too!
…
My pretty girl was super cute in her flowery purple shirt this morning, with the crisp spring air, ready for another day/week at school!

As I’m sure you can imagine, today was a big, busy, fun day with both side of our family. Full of good food and egg hunts, and even a surprise visitor. So of course there are tons of photos today, and I’m exhausted, so please enjoy almost 60 photos of cute girls and family and yummy food, and very little writing from this tired pregnant lady 🙂

Emmie was up before the crack of dawn as usual, and Jeff got picked up by Nana early to go pick up the boys today. So Emmie and I were cuddling on the couch as the sun finally came up. She played some games on her Kindle, and kept her hand on Pretzel over there pretty much the whole time. And then we had our typical egg sammies for breakfast.
