A lesson in patience

**Disclaimer** This post was originally started last week in a real attempt at more frequent blogging ;-)

Being a momma of 3 beautiful little girls has proven to be a lesson in patience the last few weeks. Not in a bad way, but just all those little reminders to be patient and all will be ok!

The 1st lesson in patience of recent is technology, and the inability to make it cooperate! My time to sit and blog these days is sporadic at best. I either haven't downloaded pictures, forgot to edit them, can't form an intelligible sentence, etc! Last week I finally had all the peaces in line, typed out an entire blog with cute stories and cuter pictures only to find out that the blogger had frozen and auto-save had failed to boot.

Cleaning, more like the lack there of, has been another lesson in patience for me. I'm the 1st person to say, "Oh well, the xxx will still be there tomorrow and I'll clean it then!" But seriously there are days when I am beginning to question the color of my floor/walls/etc. I finally muster enough energy to tackle one of the many items filling my 'to-do' list and that is the afternoon that Ainsley insists we snuggle. How can I say no to those chubby little cheeks?! 

And then there is patience as we begin yet another new routine. Summer vacation is upon us. Hard to believe that Ella is old enough to be having a summer vacation! And while I am very thankful to not have a place to be at a certain time so early in the morning, I find that we have many mornings where its closer to afternoon before we are all ready to head out to do something. Time will definitely make this transition easier, but I have to just remember to be patient.

Now onto the real reason why everyone checks in with our ol' blog....pictures of our insanely adorable children =)

Ms Ainsley is getting so big that she has outgrown sink baths already

Ainsley- 1 month old
Her personality is starting to really form!

Nothing sweeter than a sleeping baby

My 3 favorite girls

Ella loves her role as biggest sister.

Doug and Myrna came up one evening to meet Ainsley. They brought special desserts that were a HUGE hit with Ella and Aubrey!

Ella, Aubrey and Ainsley are so lucky to have such wonderful people in their lives.
Doug and Myrna play games, wear crowns and give the girls so much love!

Ainsley-- 6 weeks old
I love the little sing-song sounding noises you have started making.
And those smiles...they melt every heart in this house!

Here's to patience and more frequent blogging! Happy start of summer!
