FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL AUGUST 14, 2014

Today was the first day of School for Lily, Meilynn, and Emma.  Jilliana will start in another week and a half.  The girls were really excited and of course laid out what they were going to wear on the first day.  My alarm went off at 5:45, ugh, goodbye summer!  The girls alarms went off at 6:30.

Our morning routine goes something like this.  I wake up and get ready.  The girls get up, make beds, pick up rooms and bathroom get dressed and then I fix everyones hair.  We go downstairs at 7:00.  We make breakfast, and lunches.  These girls love to eat, so  breakfast is usually a lot.  I usually make eggs, oatmeal, toast (still making homemade bread).  The girls will pick out a fruit and will have orange juice to drink.

 First day for everyone except Jilliana.  Emma Jilliaa, Lily, and Meilynn.  Wow, I just noticed how Meilynn has shot up past Emma.  They have been the same size, (actually Meilynn was a little shorter when we got her than Emma) a long time.
 Trying for the jump photo.  Kami will have to take one when she gets home.

Wow, Vicki! Thank you ever so much for blogging about your amazing family.

I've been with you since the earliest times and followed you to China so many times... totally enraptured.

So happy to see you once more trying to keep up with your girls' activities.

I SO don't want to lose track of what you're dealing with on a daily basis and love, love, love reading about these amazing girls.

Love and hugs from Grammy Carol in Ottawa, Canada
