We have yet to have a "normal" week this month, because this week we got to get together with four of Seth's friends (and their families) from college. This is our fifth year of doing so, so we called it MBR V. Exactly what "MBR" stands for changes depending on who is telling it, but this year we said it stood for "Multiple Baby Reunion" since there were six kids (two 3 1/2 year olds, two 1 1/2 year olds, an eighth month old and a pregnancy). Every year we rotate locations, and this year was our year to host. We've rented a house each year, since splitting the cost of a rental house five ways is cheaper than hotels and more pleasant than squeezing into one person's house. So we rented a place near Greenlake in Seattle and had a great time! We watched football, played a lot of Apples to Apples and telephone pictionary, had very late night talks, ate ice cream sundaes, worship... it was wonderful.
But it was exhausting too! I finally feel a bit caught up on sleep but poor Seth is far far behind. That's what he gets for staying up so late, but he also has had to get up really for work and taking people to the airport. He'll catch up soon.
Isaac is talking up a storm these days! Often complete sentences. He is trying to hard to pick up new vocab words and never stops talking. So there's never a quiet moment, because Ezra hasn't stopped talking since he was about 22 months old either.
We missed some of our Y classes this week, unfortunately, so I am totally feeling the lack of exercise and I think the boys are too. But hanging out with friends was worth it! Things should settle back to normal pretty quick here.
