Morning Routine

We're getting back into the swing of this early morning thing that we are required to do nine months out of the year.  It is getting easier as the kids get older.  And by October, we should have it perfected.  So, here's a peek at a typical Bushwar morning...

 

Mama and Daddy are up and (mostly) ready, and breakfast is waiting at the table as the kiddos wake up at 6:30.

This morning we had yogurt and French toast sticks.

Mama does hair while the girls are eating and strapped in their chairs. :)   Marin does NOT like this part.  Sorry, baby.

Liam's ready.  It's picture day at school, so he's sporting a new shirt.  Like all good parents, we let the kid watch a little T.V. as they eat their breakfast.

Marin and Liam are the first to get dressed.  Marin loves putting on her shoes all by herself.

Ellery loves a leisurely breakfast, but we have to cut her off after 30 minutes.  Time to get dressed, little girl!

It's hugs all around as the girls get ready to go with Daddy.

 

And they're off to Ms. Brenda's and school on this rainy Friday morning.

Meanwhile, Liam is getting of his stuff together. It' show and tell  AND picture day!  He's pretty proud of his binder, which includes his behavior calendar, homework, Bible verses to memorize, and parent/teacher communication.  He loves going to school, and tells us all the time how happy he is.  That sure makes dropping him off easier for Mama.

Here's my desk at school.  Made it to work on time, but just barely, because I stopped to grab an iced coffee to celebrate making it through the week, all the way to Friday.  Hooray!
