There are no words

 So I don't really have a lot to say today. My silver tongue fails me. Blame it on some unruly children and long days. But hey, it's Wednesday, and let's face it, you're clamoring for some attention. If this is untrue, keep it to yourselves. So I hereby give to you an exceptionally rare treat: Photos sans commentary. For your visual viewing pleasure only. Silencio with the smart aleck remarks. Enjoy. And don't say I don't ever do anything for you.

Choose your own blog adventure.

So. Busy week. Busy busy busy. I could try to catch up on all the goings on over here, or I could not. Because let's face it, I would never have the stamina for catchup posts. That arena belongs to more dedicated folks than I. So let's play, Cami writes mini-blog-posts and blows your mind in three sentences or less. Go.

Blog #1- In which I run to Logan for the afternoon
My sister-in-law is having a baby, so baby shower, treats, cuteness! Driving to Logan with my mom and debating how one actually pronounces Mantua! Cranky sick babies who sleep through the whole thing!

Blog #2- In which Madeline pretends to be a pro athlete
Madeline started soccer, because our neighborhood organized a league. She is considerably more psyched about her pink soccer shoes and shorts than actually kicking the ball. She is pretty much terrified of the opposing team.

Blog #3- In which we attend a wedding
Jessie's brother got married, and we all rejoiced and ate food. Madeline wore her wedding shoes and Spencer pooped in his tuxedo. Successful night.

Blog #4- In which there is a lot of poop.
That pretty much covers it, you don't want to know more.

Blog #5- In which Jessie and Cami go to a movie theater
The third time this year, which is some kind of record for us. We saw Avengers and missed the final scene because they cheated and put in two bonus scenes. Spencer came with and loved it so much he pooped.

Blog #6- In which we camp in our backyard
We setup our tent and enjoyed nature, hot dogs, and watching Muppets on our laptop, because we're not into nature that much. We all even slept for part of the night. And now we are ready to camp for real, if someone makes us.

Blog #7- In which we shoplift at yard sales
We supported our neighborhood yard sale by giving the children nickels and setting them loose. We came home with a swing, a plastic car, a small chair, a few princesses, some cookies, a onesie, and some other junk we didn't need. Mission accomplished.

Blog #8- In which Jessie's father is venerable
Jessie's dad turned 80, which is apparently quite the accompishment- go Dad! They threw a party and we were all proud. Eighty is the new 63.

Blog #9- In which Kimberly is a human petry dish
Kimberly and I missed the amazing birthday party because she has a ruptured ear drum and hand, foot, and mouth. This is as awesome a combination as it sounds, and involves a lot of crying and very little sleep.

There you go. Like a whole month of posts condensed into the cliff's notes version for your convenience. We're just trying to recover from being awesome and sick and busy and awesome. Try not to be jealous.
