Other than going to doctor appointments and receiving guests, we have done very little the last two weeks.
Cadence really wanted me to make her mac and cheese and got everything out for me...
We missed going to our potluck, but they were kind enough to bring us some food! Cadence appropriated Bob's dessert.
Jake and Rachel were in town and stopped by. Uncle Jakey is getting slightly more comfortable holding babies.
Emmy and Miriel had doctor appointments during Cecily's field day. She was disappointed that we weren't going to be there, and then she won her race! Thankfully, I have good friends who send me videos and pictures so I don't feel quite so guilty. Looks like she just barely beat Kenna. :P
We got a new playhouse! They were so excited! Poor Bob had no choice but to put it together immediately.
And then they pushed and pulled it to the backyard on an ingenious cardboard sled (I'm still not supposed to be lifting or doing anything strenuous so I didn't help...).
They are pretty pleased and I think we will get good use out of it. We are going to anchor this one though so it won't blow over!
All ready for our first Sunday in church! Getting ready in the morning went fairly smoothly, and so did the rest of the day, really. Miriel slept through most of it.
Oh, and I made her dress long ago with the other three.... I have NOT been sewing since she was born. She makes the best faces.
Little miss I-don't-need-to-go-to-bed-and-I-don't-need-a-nap fell asleep playing with Daddy's phone. Again.
Bob went back to work after two weeks off. It's been going ok so far. My mom came over twice and cleaned my house for me sooo... I haven't really been alone.
Cecily's all done with school! I feel like this year has been a blur. I pretty much was sick/pregnant for all of it so yeah, can't say that I was really present and involved in her schoolwork or at school. And I didn't even get a last day of school picture- thank goodness I have an excellent sister-in-law who has been our bus service the last few weeks and got this picture for me!
I had to take Miriel for yet another weight check right at dismissal time on the last day of school so Sharon and girls came over after school and we all ate McDonald's for lunch at our house. Hooray for summer and Miriel finally being back at her birth weight so we don't have to go in again for awhile!
The garden dried out enough yesterday that we finally planted the rest of it... and then it rained all night. woot. I didn't plant much this year, and I'm fully expecting it to be a weedy mess, but hopefully we'll at least get a few fresh tomatoes. We planted a bunch of flowers too, for the girls to pick.
Blessings.
