Ah, cousins. Emmett passed out on the couch, and his little cousin has been piling toys and animals on him ever since.

What do you do when the carpet cleaners come and you haven't finished packing your clothes? Fill the bathroom (and tub)!

Yep, it's official. I am stuck in a car wash. And that sign that says to push the green button? Didn't help. Seriously?????

It is this little lovey's 4th birthday today! (And yes, he was getting the mail for me this morning in his Jammie's). Oh how we love our Emmett! He is equal parts hilarious, maddening, considerate, temperamental, bright, feisty, snuggly, and utterly charming, and all in a darling little package. As I'm writing this, he is yelling at me from the other room: "Where ARE you??? I think I'm thirsty!! I said I'm THIRSTY!!!" Did I mention demanding? I really do love him. πππ❤️πΌπΉ

First day of 3rd grade for this little lovey! She's been nervous for days, but finally decided last night she was SUPER excited. She got her backpack on at 6:30am today and wouldn't take it off for anything.

Emmett is not nearly as happy as I am to be home (he just realized we aren't going back to grandma's house)! 3,476 miles, 19 days, 6 states, 2 countries, 59 relatives visited, and one dead A/C later...our epic road is over. It was amazing, hilarious, memorable, wonderful, and every other superlative I can think of...and I am SO excited to sleep in my own bed tonight. #roadtrip2014

My freak flag is flying high tonight! In anticipation of our grueling road trip, I made bags for each state/country on the way to and from our destination. Yes it's a little OCD and maybe a titch crazy, but it's been SO fun to do! It's dollar store Christmas in July! Here's hoping it works. π―π #roadtrip2014

Addy is earning money for our Canada trip by selling artwork to her parents. This little still life was $1. π¨

My poor sick boy. Took him into the doc today for his eczema, and by the time we got there, he was wheezing so bad the doc almost sent us to the ER. I guess he inherited mom's asthma. :( so thankful we were going today anyway!!

Note to self: a zoo day that starts out with no stroller, no sunscreen, and literal kicking and screaming on the way in is not going to go well. Just. Go. Home. #latergram #chatbooks #stillcutekids

We've had our first lesson in pet mortality... Addy's (mostly) beloved pet guinea pig, Tiger, died peacefully on the lawn this afternoon. She cried, had her friends come over to say goodbye, and gave him a little burial. Now she's over it, and I can't hide a small amount of relief. He was sweet, but he smelled. :)

It's so nice to rock it out in the car without your kids complaining about the volume. #thanks97.3

Laying on the sidewalk, looking at the clouds, eating a sponge bob Popsicle. Summer is awesome.

Ok I just paid more than $200 for my passport. I better get some good use out of this over the next 10 years. Who wants to help me? :)

WORST night last night...every available towel and hand towel in our house is dirty from an all night barf session with Emmett (poor kid). When I finally emerged this morning, I found this cuteness. Thank heavens for self reliant kids! When in doubt, make an umbrella fort.

It is this little nugget's 8th birthday today! Love her. I am so disappointed to be sick today and for pretty much all of her spring break. We had such grand plans! Poor kid. She's taking it like a champ though and enjoying her 74th Pokemon episode.

He really did enjoy the hike, just not me taking pictures of him.
