miscellany monday

Miscellany Monday @ lowercase letters

{it's been a long time since I've joined carissa at lowercase letters...and I've missed being a part of her mundane mondays!  be sure to pay her and her sweet little lovlies a visit and join in too!}

1. {the shortest longest week eva'!}
last week was one of the busiest we've had in awhile...I felt jammed-packed with events and couldn't wait for the week to end...but it went way too fast...which makes me ever so thankful that this little miss is just the bestest baby eva'!


we had lots of activities and going's-on every day...and Elizabeth just goes with the flow!  There were field trips, after-school activities, teacher conferences & partays...and I felt terrible that she spent a lot of time in the car...but this is how she handled it...



she can sleep anywhere!  love that...and at this point, I think I could too!

2. {nice tats!}
one of the outings last week was to get this little lady to her extremely much anticipated birthday sleepover with a friend!


one of her goodies was a sheet of bright, sparkly tattoos...and she had to wear all of them...on one arm!


so glad her mom told us they are from Justice...because now Emily knows where we must get more!  ha!

3. {94}
we are so blessed to have great-grandma Martha in the family and be able to celebrate her 94th birthday on Sunday!

{kendall, great-grandma Martha, elizabeth, emily and emma}

doesn't she look amazing?! 

definitely an awesome reason to get the whole fam together!


  

and for elizabeth to meet the rest of the family!





{this picture cracks me up...love aunt betty's expression...love the ruffled bottom!}

Happy 94th Birthday Grandma Martha!

4. {smarty pants}
teacher/parent conferences last week left me feeling so proud of alex and emily!


alex has the highest math facts score of his class...and he and emily's classes both received their class traveling math trophy! 
emily is also a wonderful reader...she will pick up a book anytime of day and just sit and read forever.  her favorite books to read right now are Junie B Jones! 
they both have all A's ...and are a joy to have in class {do all teachers say that?...ha!}  I don't mean to brag...but I guess I just did!

{emily loves to try on my glasses...and I love her messy bedhead!}

5. {double-chin grin}
love love it on her...


...not so much on me...sigh...


happy monday!

  2. Eli was always such a good sleeper too! I think God must know the older two wear you out so you need a break by the time the third one gets here:) Emily and her tatoos are too funny! And yay for smart kiddos! I love hearing good things about my boys grades, even if they do misbehave at school sometimes.
