Road Trip

Here is a little proof that I alone took my four girls on a road trip to Indiana. It was a miserable,long ten hours but luckily the kids were all so good. I did not get any other pictures besides the ones I took in Cincinnati in a two hour traffic stop, and icecream at McDonalds for a much needed break.

Good Bye Summer

We timed it perfectly and hit the park on the last day of warmth. Bossy and her bud Sharlie had a blast running around, and posing for the camera! Oh and you can't forget Baby Debbie, Our awesome yard sale find named after my Aunt Debbie!


I totally love this girl! She cracks me up. She has such a fun, playful personality. Loves to pull faces and dance around.
She was going down a tube and every little hole she went past she would say "cheese, take a picture" and i would, because you can never have too many pics of this cute little face peeking out at you.

Today....

Ave has had the craziest thing on her ankle. It has just been getting bigger, leaking fluid, red, and super itchy. My only thought was bug bites. (Only because Punky got eaten alive by ants in her sleep a few months ago) So after the school nurse told her no it was not bug bites, I had a Dr. friend come check it out. He said it could be bug bites or poison ivy/oak, which would be weird cause she has not been near places that would have it. He also said if it got worse to go see her Dr. So we did that today and sure enough poison ivy/oak. What? Weird. The Dr said that even mulch can have it in it! So could have been from the school playground for all we know. Ave also had a more severe reaction than usual so she was very uncomfortable for a week! Poor girl. But nothing makes it feel better like hanging out in Target eating a brownie and slushee!

And off that topic and onto another one.... I love days like this. For some odd reason we all end up hanging out in the kitchen. We love the sunlight through the windows, the open space, and since I am always in there they follow me. So mark my words I will have a couch and hang out area in my kitchen one day.

And don't worry, sometimes they read too, not just play ipods. Oh and Ry wanted me to add that her ipod touch was acting up so they took it into the geeks who gave her a new one today and she is thrilled. (I am just thrilled that I got her in a good mood and in a picture!)
