The ladies have had a very hard time missing daddy :( They have never been this long without either daddy or i, and were not old enough last time daddy left. On Tuesday night, when going to bed, they had a huge sobbing (not a fit) breakdown. They were so upset, and wanted to know when he would be home. So the fix was for mommy to take them to the mall! Worked like a charm
Seems how they had to be homeschooled for preschool... well we don't do things in a normal manner (which is why home schooling parents get all my props) :) So after their speech appts we went to get our hands and toes done, bought magnifine glasses, bought colored flip flops, and rested on the swings in the garden center...I am glad the girls will let me take their pictures doing random things, the boys would never go for it! :)
Before Daddy leaves, we wanted to go to a mini vacation. Due to scheduling and money we had to stay closer to home, and what not, but we had a good family time.
This was our favorite part... the White Sands I love these pictures! :) After debating back and forth I dressed the boys to match the girls! I actually did this for a frame reason :) my mom got me a frame that has 3 spots, and therefore the 3 spots will be filled! yay!
Then we took them to a little Space Museum! Again, not huge, but they made the best of it! :)
We took them to the Zoo... it was really small, but they seemed to make the best of it. They were so excited they got to wear their normal clothes, rather than their halloween costumes they have to wear to go to our zoo :)
