All ready for church

Getting ready for church isn't an easy task on Sunday mornings. We have to shower and get myself ready. Nurse the baby. Feed the baby fruit. Feed the rest of us. Get 3 kids dressed. Comb kid's hair. Brush everyone's teeth and try to get their faces clean. Get my church books ready. Get Tige's lesson stuff together. Get the quiet bag stocked with snacks, cheerios, diapers, etc. You get the picture. It's a miracle we make it there each week. Tige is very helpful during this process--I'm so glad I don't have to try and get ready without him. Anyway, last Sunday we happened to be ready early. This doesn't happen often, so we took the opportunity to snap a few pictures of the kids. Can't believe how fast they are growing up!

I love abby's hair like that. Kason better be getting himself dressed and tige should take care of his own stuff. I know what you mean about it being stressful though. Soon abby will be able to dress herself. That might help a little.

Yeah shalisa, kason dresses himself. Today for church it was a navy shirt, black pants, dark green tie with white socks. Just because they can do it doesn't mean they should! Tige & I had to help him "redo" his choices.

I hear you about getting ready for church! What happened to Sunday being a day of rest? Rob leaves in the morning and it's all me until he comes home an hour after church. By the time he gets home, I'm exhausted. Your kids are so cute by the way and getting so big!

Oh I can remember the days we all had to be dressed and out the door at 7:00 am for the day. Needless to say the preschooler just got clean clothes whether they matched or not. He sweet baby sitter just told her helpers that he was learning blue and green that day because his socks didn't match. Church was easy because I had all the way to 9:00 to have them all fed and ready. Your little girl is so cute I wish we could see them more often.
