We now have a new (used) 15 passenger van!
And I'm exhausted :)
Tomorrow is an echo for Aleksa, x-rays for two kids and bloodwork for 2 kids and a sweet homeschooler from church is going to come with me to "supervise" the kids not in the x-rays. YAY!
Tomorrow night is a BIRTHDAY PARTY for sweet Brianna! Unfortunately, most of our guests are sick. But we will party anyway :D
5:30 am is not even 6 hours away...
Honestly...how do you do it? I'm totally drowning with my 4 kids and then I think of you and others who have even more and keep it together and get it done! You are my hero!
ReplyDeleteI need a nap just reading that. You are one amazing mom.
ReplyDeleteMeredith,
ReplyDeletePost a picture of everyone strapped into their carseats ready to go!
We are on the lookout for a 12 passenger van for when we bring home our two new boys from EE!

Congratulations on the new van, and Happy Birthday Brianna! Hope her party is fun!
