* Monday – Friday…VBS at church. Up and out early everyday. Abbey was a teen leader – helped teach the little cheerleaders, which she loved. Lainey was a big Kindergartner, the youngest group at VBS. I have to admit, being able to run a quick errand between the drop off and getting back home was priceless. <\/p>\n

* Well check for Marley, Payton, and Ethan. All healthy and doing great…all below average in weight, some more than others! They survived their vaccines. The doctor we saw was very thorough (really like her), and the appointment was long! <\/p>\n

* Okay, I’m cheating…Lainey and Dylan’s well check was last week. I’m gonna talk about it anyway. Lainey is 42.4lbs. (75%) and 44.5″ (90%). Who said Asian kids are small?? Dylan – on the other hand – is 27lbs (<3%) and 38.5\" (25%). Yes, you read that right. He's STILL 27lbs. Same as almost 8 months ago. The doctor isn't terribly worried. He is growing in height. But, she did order blood work to rule out anything that could be an issue. \n\n * Wednesday was supposed to be Marley and Ethan's dentist appt, but we got stuck in traffic and thought we weren't going to make it. Called the dentist, and she said come on...as long as we're not more than 10min late, we're fine. Traffic clears and I know we're gonna make it. Whew! Dentist calls my cell...they've had an equipment failure and need to cancel. Sheesh. New appt? Next Tuesday at 7:30am. Oy. \n\n * Don't even get me started about Thursday. Spent most of the day in the van, driving what felt like thousand's of miles, carting kids here and there and always feeling like I was gonna be late. Started driving at 8am, finally drove back home for the last time at 8pm. Still tired. \n\n * Today...was great. Nice ending to a whirlwind week. VBS was great. They had the Finale celebration for the parents and Lainey was cute as a button on stage, singing and doing her hand motions. We had some downtime around the house in the afternoon, and then decided it was time to put the new boat into the water. \n\n\"DSC_6146\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Verdict? We love it. Now, we adored our previous boat…we’d had it since the trips were Lainey’s age. But, this one holds more people (we’d about maxed out the other one with just our family), so we can have friends over for boating. <\/p>\n

Speaking of friends…Marley, Payton, and Ethan are having their birthday party tomorrow! They’ve each invited friends over for pizza, cake, and lake stuff (kayaking, swimming, and boat fun). Stay tuned for pictures. <\/p>\n

This week. It’s been full, frantic, frustrating, and fun. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
