is a vacation really worth all the preparation?

so packing and getting ready for a vacation is a pain...here's today's experiences...

i have been up since 7 packing and cleaning...

rhett had to work on his day off...which left me alone with 3 kids to pack everyone...

emily jane pooped in her pants while i was in the shower...

i tried to put the spare tire back in it's holder thing...to no avail...

i forgot about lunch...

rhett walks in the door to me standing in a huge puddle - i had wanted to wash emily jane's poopy panties and apparently the washing machine is broken...

i eventually missed the noise and had to ask where the kids were...they had put themselves to sleep for naptime...without lunch...

now it's 2:00 and we were supposed to leave at 12:30 and we're just sitting down to lunch...

my 3 year old's interpretation

when talking to rhett, i said "i'm not worried about that one iota"

then eben looks at me with the most surprised expression and says,"you're not worried about yoda?!"

HA rhett and i both lost it - we were laughing so hard

fall pics round 2

the yard across the street was raked this weekend :( so i couldn't use it as my backdrop anymore...but i think the front steps worked out ok. :) i'm still working on catching emily jane - she is so hard to take a picture of! she won't stay still long enough for me to snap the picture. she'll cheese then move on to something else. and she gets impatient with me for making her cheese so many times. ah well...i'll keep working on it. i love the picture of the three of them though - and i love the shot of marie. too cute.

mini-me

here are my daughters and pictures of me pretty close to their age...it's kind of fun seeing myself in them. :) i think emily jane looks more like me than marie - but we'll see as marie gets bigger. what do you think?

my happy baby

i just love her

fall pics

eben was in such a great mood (really!) and loved taking the pictures...the girls on the other hand...i'll have to take them back - marie was NOT cooperative...ah well...we'll try again later. :)

it doesn't matter what toy you buy - as long as it comes in a nice big box!

today eben and emily jane found this box and were playing together in it so nicely - i had to snap a picture. it is so wonderful to actually see them enjoying each other..yes they do have their typical sibling moments - but they play together now! it's awesome!

3 out of 5...

so here's our family picture for our church's pictorial directory - boy was it a nightmare trying to get a decent picture. first of all, emily jane wouldn't nap that day...who knows why. then i got stuck in traffic THREE TIMES on the way to church so i was late. and it was marie's supper time. SO...this was the best picture (we took about 15!). emily jane isn't smiling - but she isn't crying or ducking her head either...and marie is just doing her "look" where she puts her chin down and looks at you through her brows. typical marie look. :) eben's smile is too precious, and rhett and i look pretty good. so 3 out of 5 smiles isn't too bad of odds, is it?

eben

eben
our eben is full of imagination and laughter. he loves to pretend, play games, and make everyone laugh. he is so much like his daddy - with just a bit of his mommy!

marie

marie
our little marie is little miss independant! she loves snuggling up with mommy, playing dressup, and being mommy to her babydolls. she is the color in my rainbow!
