Great Weekend: In Photo

5 Things

1.  My girls went to Michigan with their cousins after the Baptism for a few days.  Chris just left to bring them home.  I have really missed them.  I am a hormonal mess--I want my children with me.  Plus Gus is high maintenance and I'm tired.  His sisters help me so much more than I realize.

2.  Theo had a very bad day yesterday.  Lots of tears (me and him).  Last night was great.  Were we both tired from a day of hysteria?

3.  We decided to cloth diaper Theo.  I love it!  I wish that we would have jumped on this bandwagon babies ago.  It is really easy.  And the cloth diaper bum?  So cute.  I have lots of disposable wipes left over from diapering Gus.  I plan to make some cloth wipes (fleece or flannel?) when they run out.  They will be easier than disposable--tuck them right into the dirty cloth diaper.  Done! 

4.  School starts for us next week.  I am desperately craving our school schedule.  Our children's behavior has been crumbling with with all the free time that they have had this summer.  I miss the busy cadence of our school days--piano, math, Latin, etc., lunch, dinner, showers, bedtime, REPEAT.

5.  My husband is so great.  I love him and he loves me back.

Rough Day

Covered in dirt, blood and his dinner.  He looks like this almost every evening.  Makes us laugh.

Theo's Baptism

Theo was baptized on Sunday.  Praise be to God.  It was a lovely weekend, full of food and friends family and laughter.  Thank you to everyone!

Baby Theo

Olympics

We have really enjoyed watching the Olympic coverage the past week.  The girls have obviously loved the women's gymnastics, but the swimming has enraptured me.  Is Missy Franklin not the coolest girl ever?
