My Crew...What a day!

After a long hard day with the kids and Dustin working many long hours I think to myself was that day something to write home about??!?? I don't know...many time outs, potty breaks, finding cereal ground into the floor, losing toys over the balcony and having to call dad to save the day, kids not eating and yelling and fighting and many I'm board...can I play the computer and can we watch a movie(no you have already watched 4). Did I mention Ryya getting out of the pack in play and throwing things into the toilet. Them asking so many times when is dad going to be home, finally getting them all down for a nap and crashing with them do i finally get some relaxing time. I took them out to fly kites and was that an experience...getting them all tangled up and not knowing how to make it work....I think that I'll let dad take them from now on. So I thought....talking to my mom on the phone for a short while after they were all in bed would be nice. Then finding Mason and Chloe in the hallway having a hard time falling asleep. Well that's what I get for having them take a nap in the first place. They came up with some good ones! We are scared and you know me I DIDN'T buy it! I marched them back to bed for the 5th time...Now it's 11pm and I was looking through some pic's of my kids and think oh what was I thinking....I do love every moment of it and think i really wouldn't want it any other way! What a blessing they truly are and how blessed I am to have such a wild bunch!! :)
(Thanks to Bri for taking this cute picture of them!!)

Oh April, I hope things will get better and the kids will get use to the new lifestyle. Hang in there...good thing God makes kids SOO cute! I use to say that is why God made Noah so stinkin' cute. It saved his life occasionally. That picture of your kids is so cute, it looks like it is right out of a magazine, Bri did amazing!
