Sunday, November 13th - Evan sent me this photo he took with his phone of the sitting room area in the Presidential Suite he got to stay in at his hotel in Qingdao. They had accidentally given away his room, so he got upgraded for free! Swanky stuff!
Tuesday, November 15th - Today was Ashley's turn to lend a hand! I took Isaiah to his 4 year checkup while she hung out with Micah and later in the day, they roped her into some artsy fartsy time at the table.
Wednesday, November 16th - I took these photos with my cellphone and sent them via text message to Evan's phone so that they'd be the first thing he saw when he turns his phone on tomorrow upon arriving back home. I love Thomas's face in both of them!
Thursday, November 17th - Daddy is finally home!! He brought back this gift box that was given to him over in China. The fan is lovely, but that rolled up scroll underneath it is just gorgeous. It's HUGE, but gorgeous.
Friday, November 18th - The boys' new clock arrived today, and not a moment too soon. It's the Teach Me Time Clock and it acts as a nightlight and then you can set it to glow green when it's ok for them to get out of bed in the morning. I'm desperately hoping it will help with the new 5:30 am wake time they've developed since Daylight Savings Time.
Saturday, November 19th - We hosted our annual Fat Man's Thanksgiving celebration today and the boys made a great meal, as usual. What I didn't expect was what would await me when the girls and I came upstairs to start cleaning up.
We're so happy to have Evan back from his trip to China! After a really busy weekend, we're trying to get back to business as usual. Have a great week!
