Goodness, we love this crazy time of year. Every year, it gets crazier.

The kids start talking about how excited they are for Advent sometime around August. 😉 We love our nightly routine at Christmas time!!

I was in the school room with Nathan, heard a crash and came in to see this. Seriously this girl is shaving years off my life.

I said, “Eisley Laine!” and she looked up at me like this. I feel like her remorse for breaking about eight rules isn’t where it should be.

Nathan’s library reading book was all about pirates, so this is what we get afterward. Ha!

Bless our long-suffering dog. Eisley is always telling me that Kody is her buddy. Not sure Kody feels the same way.

Parker would happily sit here and color forever. I’ve been doing Mom time with each of the boys after they’ve done rest time while Eisley is still asleep and Parker always wants to color during Mom and Parker time. It’s so sweet! Poor guy has been hacking away for forever now – he has an appointment this week to get evaluated for asthma. Hate this for my boy. 🙁
