The Weekend

I'm not going to lie...I love weekends. Every now and then we get the opportunity to sleep in...a rarity these days for sure =). It offers a break from the busyness of the week.

I'm happy that the girls are settling into the routine. Some mornings are a bit rough especially the ones where I have to get them all ready alone. School is going well for which I'm very thankful and Noelliah is a very sweet baby.

Tomorrow, I am going on the annual shopping trip that some girls from church do. I'm hoping to find some gifts for some special people. We are finished buying for the girls. At this point, I am the most behind I have ever been in the way of Christmas shopping. If I haven't purchased it yet, I normally have in mind what I am going to buy...but not so much this year! Noelliah gets to join me tomorrow and daddy is going to be with Aliyah and Keirah. His big task tomorrow is to finish the leaf clean-up in the yard as well as finish the outdoor Christmas decorations.

This weekend officially starts busy time for our family. Josh works A TON around Thanksgiving. Then after that, he has meetings at corporate in WI. It will be my first time with him gone for a few days while having all three girls. We will all miss him.

Almost time to decorate for Christmas...with the busy fall that we had I must say that we have just begun getting used to it being fall. Somehow it transitioned from summer to Christmas time without us noticing. Maybe that is partly why I am so behind on the gifts. Life was busy with 2 grandparents being in the hospital, Noelliah being born, schooling, going back to work...and just junk like laundry and stuff.

Well, I had better get ready for bed since I have to get up early in the morning.
