After a fun 3-day weekend of camping, we were back to school and work today. When we drove past our local high school and Emmie realized there was no traffic, and I told her the big kids weren’t at school this week, she was not thrilled that she had to go, but we still had a nice easy drop-off. And look at this crazy yellow coloring and sky and clouds and everything!

We are back in town now after such a great camping weekend. In all of our years of camping, this weekend had the most perfect, beautiful weather, and we had great campsite, and we had the best time with our biggest girl! (This photo was this morning, Sunday, but I wanted it to show up first… but let’s jump back to Friday…)

While Jeff and I are getting things ready and getting myself dressed, Emmie likes to go in Addie’s room to take care of her for us, and it’s adorable. And although Addie looks concerned in this particular photo, she was just hungry and ready for us to pick her up.

Little cutie pies this morning before school! Today was “purple for preemies” day, and although neither of my girls were preemies, our sweet triplets were (here’s the blog post from when I first held them!), and we wanted to support them. (Even though their mommy forgot to send them in purple today 
) And uh, Emmie picked out her shoes today, and even though I think they’re supposed to be water shoes for summer time, it wasn’t worth the fight…

So this morning we were supposed to take Emmie to the dentist. But long story short, everyone forgot that she was supposed to take one dose of antibiotics 30 minutes prior to the appointment, because of her heart surgery, so at 7:45ish we had to pivot. We had planned to leave home at 7:45, but my girl was sobbing because she was upset that was was not going to the dentist today. So I offered to get her a donut on the way to school as a special treat, but she just wanted Mommy to make her an egg sandwich at home! What kind of kid do I have on my hands here?! One who cries over not going to the dentist, and is obsessed with boiled eggs, egg salad and devilled eggs… What a silly pants girl!!

Even though these two cuties were all bundled up nice and warm again this morning for another chilly start, the littlest Addison had somehow already lost a sock, before we even made it inside daycare! Luckily, I had an extra pair in her bag, so I was able to slip that on before dropping her off.

I started my Sunday, taking my turn to teach these five sweet girls a Bible story about the Ark of the Covenant, and praying together, and playing instruments marching around, and learning the verse of the day. It was super sweet and precious.

We started off our morning beary good, and we had a beary great Friday! Gonna keep today’s post short & sweet, since it was a relatively slow day, and I don’t have a ton of photos anyways…

Jeff and I both had the day off work today, so of course we kept the girls home with us for a nice family day. We got up early to feed Addie her first bottle around 5:40am, then fell back to sleep for a while. Emmie got up around 6:45, but played quietly on her Kindle in her room, until we all got up and moving around 7:30. It was a nice slow, lazy morning making breakfast and coffee, and just hanging around not doing much.
