It's been fun. The girls and I got out our summer list and reviewed it. Not too bad. We're going to try to squeeze in a few more little things to check off our list tomorrow and Monday. We did make a rainbow cake for my friend Ashley for her birthday this summer. She was feeling down, so I kidnapped her daughter and we made her a cake - she thought it was a lovely white cake.
And when she cut into it, she was delighted. In fact, she said it was the best cake she ever got, even better than the Hello Kitty cake she got in second grade. The best part was watching three little girls giggle their way through dinner waiting to reveal the big secret.
What else are we up to? My big goal: to get ALL the laundry caught up this weekend. I'm not convinced that's possible with three kids, but I'm trying.
We do have all of Sophia's uniforms washed and ready to go.
And an army of molasses mini muffins in the freezer, standing by for after school snacks.
Amelia got her fingernails done too. Now we call her Miss Strawberryfingers.
Davis found Sophia in her room with an apple - making the sun
Sophia is cracking me up these days. If I'm ignoring her and she wants to get my attention, she says "excuse me, your majesty" and does a little bow - how can I possibly ignore that?! Amelia takes a different approach - if I ignore her, she un-invites me to her birthday party (in January) and says I'm not her friend anymore. Too bad for her, because no mommy = NO CAKE.
I checked on the girls a little while ago and found her like this
she insists on sleeping with that flashlight. I love that I can take pictures of my sleeping kids, with a flash, and not wake them up.
Henry. He loves being a source of entertainment for us all. See?
Does this seem like the most random post ever? That's because this is how my life feels right now. Soon. Very, very soon, we will have a routine again. Actually, Amelia doesn't start school until next month. *sigh*

Cute pictures of the kiddos Vera. I think lots of people are glad that the summer is winding down and they can go back to their routines.
I know that I am looking forward to cooler weather. It actually rained a little last night, and was a treat.
Is that a sister's bow on baby boy's head? He sure is a cutie. i can't believe he is so big already. Where does time go?
Have a blessed Lord's day and a good week ahead.
