monday

all three kids did at least some part of unloading the dishwasher and, because we didn't get a chance to finish, honey did the rest after work... woohoo!

I wasn't expecting a lot, but Elizabeth did a fantastic job with the silverware.

this guy fell asleep when we were hanging out outside.


always requesting that I take pictures of him.



Brady asked if I could take a picture of him and Andrew and Elizabeth ran at lightening speed to join.



he keeps asking me how his head is healing so fast from his scooter accident.

so thankful for these neighbor friends. Elizabeth and Emerson were even playing together more than they usually do.

after all thereof about the body color being too similar to our neighbors', we somehow got approved for everything except our shutters.  I'm not sure what they expect of our shutters.  we've already planned to go forward with everything.  Chris says that their approval for front door only must be a mistake and they probably mean front door and shutters are fine but not anything weird like accenting around our bay windows or something.  we'll just go with that story.  ; )

we were just two girls hard at work in the kitchen.  I was making our best bites coconut chicken and demolishing the last of the pan of brownies.  Elizabeth was... also working.

you'll be tempted to admire that tall tower of yogurt and sour cream containers, but the real gem is Abigail's pose.

Abigail lost her third tooth.  I hadn't been keeping track of how wiggly it was until Abigail mentioned it after school.  as we were getting ready for bed, Christopher popped it out of her mouth.

Brady fell asleep within seconds of climbing in bed.  he was soooo exhausted during nap time but didn't nap.  Abigail kept coming out of her room because she was "too scared" and "couldn't fall asleep" until honey took pity on her and stayed in her room while she fell asleep.  once everyone was asleep, I swept and vacuumed and mopped and finished cleaning the kitchen and putting everything away and tied up all the loose ends and finally went to sleep around 12:30 or so.  I have GOT to figure out a way to get everything done during the day so there's not so much to do at night.  there's just not enough time during the day.  at least not with Elizabeth around.

and here's Andrew.  what a sweet little soul.
