Tim got home on Saturday afternoon. The girls ran to him at the airport, and they had a very happy reunion.
After a long night's sleep for all, we took the girls to Excalibur, which Kate had been begging to go to for weeks. I was slightly apprehensive about the adventure; I didn't want Kate to be disappointed, but I didn't know what she was expecting. She has been very interested in princess stories lately, and I was concerned that she would demand to see Sleeping Beauty and others, and would maybe want to try on the glass slipper just for good measure. Luckily, the castle was decked out for Christmas, and that (along with all the lights and sounds) distracted her enough that she had a good time, not begging once to dance with Prince Philip.
Daddy's return: does it get better than this? McDonald's for lunch, followed by blue cotton candy ice cream with M&Ms. Followed by a meltdown.
Later that night, we had yet more sweets: a birthday cake for me.

"Followed by a meltdown..." I laughed at that one....especially juxtaposed by the hideous blue....thing...Claire is eating! :)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! The cake looks delicious!
You have 70 pounds of children. OMG.
Happy Birthday, Jen!! And welcome home, Tim!
LOVE the 70 lbs together. The last time Mykenzie added up all the kids we were up to 170! It's great to see you all back together. And, I knew Tim would do some sort of delayed birthday celebration. What can be better than castles, Christmas decorations, and sweets multiple times during the day!
Oh, and way to go on Claire already wanting to potty train. Isaac has no clue and Noah still doesn't care. I hope and need to change that soon!
