I made it.

Ben has been MIA for a while, and he finally took his test yesterday. I made it! This week was adventurous. I had to go to the bank with all three kids. Liam is hard enough by himself. I discovered that he can only go on errands if he is strapped into a stroller. Otherwise I just chase him. It is actually very helpful to have Troy with me. He can push Liam in the stroller, while I carry Katelyn. While the bank man was processing some stuff, I tried to keep the kids entertained by letting Troy take pictures.

I made this face.

And then Troy copied.

Liam started to copy the face, but got distracted by the hood of his stroller. He rubbed his head on it for several minutes after that.

Some quick highlights of the week. I got to go to RS because they had the young women babysitting. Troy and Liam were the only kids, so they had their own little party in the nursery room. 

We had preschool at our house again for the first time since Katelyn arrived. It wasn't as bad as it could have been. We had lots of fun with shapes, balloons, paper plates, writing, and dancing.

Daddy ate dinner with us for about 10 minutes each night before he went to study. He made sure to get his Katelyn time in. Troy took this picture. It's one of his favorite things to do since the time at the bank.

There was beautiful weather on Friday, so we ran outside as soon as possible and played at the playground until lunch time. Liam can do everything that Troy can now.

Annie made this SUPER cute headband for Katelyn's blessing. I LOVE it. 

Crazies this week: Troy and Liam got out the block of cheese and starting biting huge chunks out of it. I don't know why I ever answer the phone when they are awake. Liam got a hold of a knife and stabbed his apple with it. Troy discovered he can open the garage, and so he opens it and then Liam escapes. I lock the basement door now.

I love my mothering life! (Not sarcastic, I really do, by the end of the week these things are funny.)
