Too quiet

The 3 oldest kiddos went to stay with my mom this week.  It's been very quiet around here.  I often think how nice it would be to just have a break , but I miss those little guys so much! I know that they are having a blast and that warms my heart. I have so much time on my hands, I'm not sure what to do with it all.  Ava is such a peaceful and quiet baby, I am able to accomplish a lot. With this extra time, I've made a new table runner out of burlap (pictures to come when it's complete), recovered our dining room chairs, and tomorrow I'll be making some curtains for the dining room. It feels really odd to have so much time on my hands to do things I love that I haven't been able to do in so long. I find it pretty strange that I have to think of things to keep myself busy! How will I get along when they all "leave the nest"?  I've forgotten how quiet it is to just have one baby around.  I will admit, I've enjoyed sleeping in the past couple of days! I look forward to seeing my monkeys soon!

This is a picture of Ava because she's been the only one around to take photos of!
