Emersyn's Visit to IL

On Tuesday, Mi-Mi and Megan took all the kids to my parents' house in Illinois. Even though I miss Emersyn SO much, I know she loves to get out of the house and have a change of scenery.  My mom and Megan do a great job of keeping her entertained:) I would love for Emersyn to snuggle up with me on the couch all day, but realize that's the last thing a nineteen month old wants to do. Megan and her kids came back yesterday, and then Mi-Mi will be bringing Em back tomorrow. Brennan went to visit a friend in Michigan for the weekend, so Megan and Pete had me over for dinner last night. Megan filled me in on their visit and gave me a few pictures to share!

Here are some pictures from MaMaw and PaPaw's house (my grandparents). It's the place to be!  They always have a houseful of people! More importantly, it's filled with a lot of love and laughter:)

Next stop... Aunt Lana's pool!  Another place we love to go when we're in Charleston.  We always hang out at her place for hours on end:)

Emersyn and her buddy, Uncle Jerry:)

On Thursday, they visited Tiffany and her quads! I was so jealous! Tiffany is planning to come visit over Labor Day weekend, and I can't wait. Who would have thought that best friends would both have multiples!  She has been such a huge support ever since the day I found out I was expecting triplets. I remember her saying, "Misti, you can do this!" She knew exactly what I was thinking and what I needed to hear.  She is such a wonderful mother! I used to say, "God knew exactly what he was doing when he gave Tiff and Jon multiples. They are the perfect people for the job." I think God must have been asleep when I got pregnant! ha ha! I just hope we can handle it with as much grace as they have.
Gavin, Reese, Lauren, and Maggie are three and a half now, and as you can see, they're just too cute!

As you can see, they had a great visit! It breaks my heart that I have to miss out, but I know it will be worth it in the end:)  I have a doctor's appointment on Monday, so I'll let you know how it goes!
