Catch up

Catch up...seems to be the story of my life right now. With all kids in school at least 6 hours a week, no more diapers to change, bottles to mix or baby food to puree you would think I would have oodles of free time. Somehow that is not the case and I still find myself with a to do list that doesn't get done each day, laundry still piled in my room waiting to be folded each night and people "I keep meaning to call". How is that possible? I truly am enjoying the stages the kids are at. Everyone is learning so much in school and I love that. I love seeing Hudson and Brooklyn's worlds open up as they recognize letters and numbers everywhere, I love hearing Morgan read more independently and I love trying to stay ahead of what Ethan is learning....not always the case now! We are busy doing life and trying to make memories and take advantage of the days we are all home together now. I know that will only get crazier so we are trying to slow life down as much as possible. Here are some pictures from November...and then maybe next post we can finish November and start December:)

I searched one of my local friend's blog for things to do in our area in the fall. I came across one of her posts about a trip they made to Calavares Big Trees. I have been wanting to take our kids there, but due to some sensitive tummies we have always put it off. I am happy to report that we made the trip without any puking AND a broken DVD player! We had some classic road trip fun as we played I Spy, I'm going camping and I'm going to bring....as well as shared knock, knock jokes. I think we made some memories and enjoyed some fall colors among the giant trees God has created. Enjoy our pics from the day.
