After Roxy's shower the girls got to see Devin and Katie's backyard chickens!
Checking for eggs! So much fun!

IKEA fun!
Even enjoying IKEA in the bathroom ;) Lest I forget how crazy it is to use public restrooms with 3 young children...strollers or shopping carts, diaper changes, tooshie-wiping, nursing, hand-washing, water fountains...it's like an Olympic sport! Today at the park we spent about 20 minutes at the public restroom...4 different restroom visitors!
Somehow the girls scrounged around my wallet to find 50 cents to ride this "airplane" at the outlet mall

Backyard fun at the E family home, where we got to send farewell wishes to the H family as they prepared to leave for their new family mission in Nicaragua with their 3 young children and one in-utero. Please pray for them!

The last day we found a big festival in Georgetown, a wagon trail ride adventure. Here are the girls next to a teepee.
Campfire cooking!

And the fun park there! My cute kiddos posing for the camera before we head back to pack up and go home!
Thanks again, Roxy, for hosting us for such a long visit. We had a wonderful time and appreciate you opening your house to the big bunch of kiddos! All our love and prayers, especially as you await baby's arrival!

Such fun and wonderful memories!
Thank you for sharing!
Love, Mom
How fun! How do you do all of that?! I think I would be crazy!
Blair, so glad to see that you all have come out of this disaster with good friendship, great support, and smiles to go with it all! The kids look great... And I so enjoyed catching up on your cry room reflection. Thank you for vulnerably writing from your heart--I feel like I could have composed the same thoughts right now. Life with small children is really difficult... and I SO crave them to be older and more rational. Yet I know I should never wish away any moment with these precious gifts from God! So tough!
Thanks be to God for His Love and Patience with me when I have none of my own! :) Blessings...
You are welcome Blair! It was a fun week- I didn't know you took all those pictures!
Thanks for your good wishes and prayers! =)
