Almost in the Clear

Isaac has been gone on a business trip these last few days, so life has been kind of crazy. Despite the craziness I promised I would blog everyday so that he wouldn't miss out on much. Lucky for him I've actually done it! Unfortunately it's usually super late. We are sooooo excited to have him home.
The girls haven't really understood what's going on and why Daddy isn't home yet. At least today I was able to tell them they would see him tomorrow. It was still hard when they would say things like, "Doesn't Daddy want to eat dinner? Isn't he hungry?" or "Doesn't Daddy want to sleep in his bed?" or every time a car would drive by the girls would run up to the window and say, "Oh, it's Daddy! He's home!" Seriously would make me cry sometimes because I wish he was home too, only for different reasons. :) The girls have seriously missed story time with Daddy, I just can't do it justice. :) We miss him tons! Tomorrow cannot come soon enough!
Well, today. Today we tried really hard to go outside, but it was super cold. I let the girls pick some flowers on our way to the car. I was in a have to get out of the house before I go crazy mood, so we headed to Jerome and went to Walmart. I really need to go grocery shopping but lacking the emotional energy today to handle all three girls, I decided the trip to Twin would have to wait until Isaac got home. Lucky and unlucky for us they had just marked down all the Easter stuff to 75% off! Since they were just barely putting up the signs, there were still some yummy things left, like Reese's PB Bunnies and Nerds jellybeans (my new favorite!) among several other things...I won't mention them because I'm actually kind of embarrassed at how much candy I bought. Not to mention a doc in our stake was in the line behind us and we chatted, pretty sure he must have been thinking something like, "Not the healthiest choice..." Oh well. I was caught in a weak moment, and hello! I am seriously an emotional eater...kind of goes without saying if you know me... Anywho, I digress.
The girls have actually been pretty good all things considering. For some odd reason they have been going to bed earlier, but have also been waking up earlier. Except Brynlee- still going to bed late and waking up early. Speaking of sleep...it is calling me.
One last story for the day. My girls, like most kids LOVE to splash. The more water out of the tub, the more fun. Seeing as how I have to take care of Brynlee means less of a watchful eye that those two little mischievous girls. Usually I have to wipe up the floor after the bath, not tonight. Oh no, not tonight. Tonight I had to MOP up the floor. Quite literally. Yes, I knew once I heard uncontrollable laughter, something had to be going on. Yes, they had been DUMPING water onto the ground. They took one look at my face and stopped laughing- well Madi let out a little chuckle. After "the look" they new trouble was there. I guess I couldn't get too mad at them...I was needing to mop the floor anyway.

Brynlee has just discovered her tongue this last week and it's ADORABLE!

Seriously LOVES bath time and is such a chatter box!

Gabi LOVES holding Brynlee and is always asking

Brynlee appears to be impartial :)

Madi's "cheese" face (i'm in love with it!)

They discovered they both have pockets, a new-found love

Totally ready to snooze and totally done with pictures

Hope you've had a great day! We love and miss you Isaac! Can't wait to see you!
