We miss Daddy!

Kara's outfit for 3 months pictures

Popcorn is great to keep kids busy, not so good to clean up later.

One of our many fits since daddy has been gone.

All kids need to be happy, a tupperware container, blanket and each other.

Floor time with baby sis!


So far Adam has been gone 5 days and we have experienced 2 soccer games (one it drizzled the whole time, the other Aidan through a fit), dog having diarrhea, 3 months pictures at Sears, a rainy day playdate, a trip to Target, a baby with a snuffy nose, church with all 3 kids for the first time by myself, and an adventure (Aidan's word) at the Virginia Living Museum. Not to mention about 2o fits, 10 time outs, a million "stop doing that," "don't touch your sister," "she is just a baby be gentle," and my favorite "just wait until I tell your daddy" (doesn't work well when he doesn't come home every night. I have made it through by consuming a lot of pumpkin spice lattes (Thank you Starbucks), some chocolate (for me and the kids), letting them watch a little bit more tv then usual, playing tickle monster, reading a lot of books (to the kids and for myself), and take very hot bathes, and getting all of their kisses and hugs!

Can't wait for daddy to come home, so I can take a nap and have a glass of wine!
