Time is flying by...

We have been staying busy here, enjoying every minute with Letha. We have been shopping, eating, sorting suitcases and all the things tucked up in the attic. We have made that first fun trip to the grocery store so Letha could get all the things she missed while she was away. Yogurt, pickles, chips, milk, cereal...
The girls are loving the extra attention, lots of games are being played, movies watched, barbies, polly pockets... oh and Letha is teaching the girls Biology:) We have a skeleton that you put together as you learn about the parts of the body, the girls love it. Yes, I did wait for Letha to teach the girls, I know nothing about biology!
I think we about have some Halloween costumes put together... I am sure there will be plenty of pictures taken tomarrow!

Letha's here!

Letha is finally back and we are enjoying every minute with her! She got back on Tuesday night after her flight had a short delay. I took pictures of us waiting for her and then we were so excited when she came out that I forgot about taking pictures:)

Bria carefully watched Mark's cell phone until 4:44 pm, the time her flight was landing.

Sahara helped me take over seats right by where Letha would come out at.

Tirza was a little harder to entertain...
Waiting can make the best of us a little crazy!

So happy to have Letha at home with us!

22 hours

22 hours until Letha lands in Nashville!
She is already started traveling and so far so good. The girls and I will head out tomarrow after lunch to drive to Nashville to pick her up, we can't wait!

The week after

We are just enjoying a return to normal after the week of parties and pumpkins patches. Don't worry life has not been boring, Mark was sick, we had school and piano lessons and all that. Tirza has been up to her normal gettings into things.
Last week we were keeping the Smith girls so Ronnie and Allie could go to the play at Union. They put Lilly down for a nap in the pack n play in the big girl's room. Tirza snuck in and got into the bed with Lilly, I heard them giggling away. I got Tirza out and put her down for a nap in her room and headed for the grocery store. When I got back I heard the giggling again and Mark asked if I knew how Tirza got into Lilly's room. Well that's a good question, especially since we have one of those doorknob things on the doorknob inside Tirza's room so she can't get out. Turns out she had dismantled the doorknob thingy (she had never done that before and hasn't been able to do it again) quietly went next door into where Lilly was, all the while closing the doors behind her so no passing by adult would suspect anything. Mark caught her sneaking back to her room to get a book, she said Lilly wanted a book!
