12 for 12 November

Top Left to Bottom Right: (1) Last day of soccer (picture taken the week before). There are no pictures of this because a: we were late- Emma refused to get dressed b: it was a freezing 45 degree day with rain at the end of practice c: I was there by myself trying to entertain a 1 year old and a 2 year old on the sidelines while Stephen was at a leadership training meeting (2) shin guards worn on the outside of the pants- the new fashion statement (3) Jacob (4-6) picking up Dad and heading to a celebratory lunch at Benjamin's first choice Panda Express (7-10) riding the carosel at the mall afterwards (11) Jacob playing in the potty before dinner and again after all because someone left the door open again after she went with out flushing all while Stephen was gone again for another Church thing which equaled two baths, two different loads of laundry because I had already thrown in a load after the first episode, two times sterilizing the bathroom, and two times crying-one for mom and one for Jacob (12) how we all felt by the end of a very long day
