Our Mornings

I don't know what it's like at your house in the mornings, but it seems like there's is always a very NARROW window to get us all out the door by 7:30 (that's our goal). I do try to get things somewhat organized the night before, but it always seems to be something that makes it a crazy morning.
The older kids wake up....no problem. Of course they do go straight to the tv and I have to remind them that it would be great if they could get dressed and do there hair. (Now, Ashleigh doesn't have that problem, that girl always looks nice in the morning-BUT her getting ready routine takes forever!)
Now that it's darker and somewhat chillier in the mornings, I have to gently go into the twins' bedroom and wake them up. I thought Cam was done sucking his thumb, well apparently that's not totally the case. I found him curnled up like a little baby this morning, sucking his thumb and holding his blanket. They are babies still, yet they aren't!
Sometimes, I end up being the last one to the van! Yep, mom needs to put in high gear too!
Well, this week is almost over with, and on to Thanksgiving next week :)

Camden, finally eating...picking out cereal can take a while! :)

 Casey ready for school!

Keeps us smiling!

I guess he had time to play a quick song....

Camden showing me one of his papers.

 I let her back up the car and go in our cul de sac. "Did I do good, Mom?"
