I'm right there with you Krista!!


It must be something in the air!!! My kids (and hubby) have put me through the ringer today. Lacy has been destroying one thing after another. It really started with Shawn calling me at 9:30 this morning wanting me to help with some invitation he had to do for work. He gave me one hour! That might usually be do-able but he re-formatted our computer last week and now I don't have any of my dang programs! I miss Adobe :(. So I was trying to see what I could do in Word (after using Adobe, Word sucks!). It ended up taking 3 hours. All the while Lacy is making messes all through the house. Dumped out a bag of popcorn and smashed it into the play-doh, making mud by putting dirt in the sprinklers, taking every book off the shelf, and all the movies out of the cabinet- I don't know how it got un-locked. She also colored all over herself MULTIPLE times! The picture was AFTER her bath.

--side story... that's my fault, the coloring thing. We were at my parents for FHE last night and during the lesson my brother fell asleep. Well as a prank, I took some crayola washable markers and colored on his legs and back... Lacy witnessed... very stupid on my part!

Anyways, Hugo was also not feeling good today so he spend most of the day not able to sleep and wanting to be held all the time. He is never loud, but he whined all day! Then, after work Shawn had basketball and soccer. He was actually really good, he even took Lacy to basketball. I know he couldn't help it, making my day a little crazier than it already was...

but I was SERIOUSLY about to stick my kids on the corner with a for sale sign attached.


You know I wouldn't ever actually do that... I love my kids to death, its just been one of those days!!

God bless you. I completely understand...being a nanny I have days where I think, hmmm, perhaps no one will notice if I just leave! haha.Those days are the worst. Thank you for your comment about my belly all being out in front. I hope you are right my friend, I certainly do not feel like carrying this around forever! haha. You had mentioned that you talk to Elise! Tell her hello for me, it has been ages. And we will have to get together someday, sometime. I would love that. I live up North on Cave Creek and Bell...but I don't mind driving! :)

Oooh! Shawn should be in trouble asking you to pull that off in one hour with two little ones at home. Doesn't he know things take 6 times as long with kids around? Koby markered all over himself when he was that age. I was so mad. Cameron recently did the same thing, but I laughed. I'm sure once things calmed down you laughed at Lacy too. Hang in there! Funny thing is, my kids aren't for sale today! Things always get better- at some point! (: Hopefully yours are being angels today!

I hate it when you do things in front of your kids, thinking that they aren't clever enough to re-create it. Sorry you had a very hectic day. =(

Ohhh, that is a bad day! I really hate when I am trying to get stuff done and my kids just won't cooperate..than I just get super cranky which makes them more cranky and its a vicious cycle. Hope things get better :)

Oh I hate those days. It always seems to happen when I have a ton of things that need to get done. Good luck.
