Stressed Out But Loving It

Ok so I so do not understand how women do it. By it.... I mean run the kids, pay the bills, shopping, church calling's, laundry and not to mention keeping the house clean!!!!! I am so exhausted by the end of the day I just want to crawl into bed.

Thinking back I remember thinking that Wal-Mart was the high light of my life and I couldn't wait for pay day just so I would have something to do. Now I think oh I wish I could be board for a day. Three kids are alot of work. Don't get me wrong I love them to death and would not trade them for anything and I would do it all over again. I am trying to enjoy each and every busy day because I know that they won't last and I will be all old and wishing for those busy days. I will be wishing for the noise and the uncontrollable laughter when they are supposed to be going to sleep. Wishing for that "mom i'm hungry" right when they are crawling into bed after their teeth have been brushed. Hearing the "oh mom I forgot that I still have some homework" right when I think that I can relax.

I am truly grateful for my kids, Taylor is so sweet and mature. She is the best big sister that I know. She will play with the boys and also take care of them. She is nice to everyone mostly because she is so shy. Haegen is so sweet and very spiritual. He is always up to helping who ever he can. He will surprise me with cleaning his room, or doing anything like that. The other day my car was full of items from the case lot sale at Smith's and he brought every one in for me. Don't ask me how he did it he is super tough. Bryce always keeps me laughing. He is so funny and you can tell he is the baby of the family. He knows how to get the other two, to do his work for him. He always tell's me "mommy you my baby". Or he will come running in from outside see me and yell hi baby and keep doing what he was doing. I guess it's from all the times I said "Bryce you are my little baby."

So all in all I have the best kid's in the whole world. I know all you mom's out there will beg to differ..... But, I know I love my kids.

Kid's Who Avoid Bed Time

So this is what happens when kids don't want to go to bed they find other things to do.

I thought that they were all in bed and I was working on my lesson and in comes Taylor with Gracie all dressed up, in the boys clothes.


Like the sponge bob boxer's?!?!?!?!

and yes my vacuum never gets put up it is always out.

First Day of School

Well here is my baby Bryce. He was trying to be interested in posing for the picture but he was trying to hurry and get in dad's truck for the first day of pre-school. Haegen was the same way trying to hurry up he was excited for his first day of Kindergarten.
Here is Haegen and Derik waiting for the bus. I think that Haegen would have let me take him to school but he knew that Derik was going to ride the bus so he went that way, which was fine with me. He gets to have second thoughts once he gets there...well in preschool he did. I am just glad that he has Derik to go with. It makes it alot easier.
They ran right on the bus and took off.
Here is Bryce coming home from pre school.
Isn't he just sweet!!!!!

Bryce said that he had a good day at school, i think that it was just like he went right back no big deal.
Haegen first said that he liked his old school better it was funner, then 2 sec. later he said well no I like my knew school it was fun.
So I am so glad that they like to go to school, verses a year ago having Mrs. Anita hold them while I jetted to the door trying not to cry and thinking oh they don't need this I'll just take them home with me so they are not upset. Yeah I know, i'm a push over and they know it.

Dove Hunting

Well my big fun Labor Day consisted of Dove Hunting. I know so much fun for me huh! Well here are the to boys showing off the big find, they were so excited. Rhett told them that they would eat them and they did and loved them yuck! No... I did not eat any I just couldn't bring myself to. I know that if Rhett would have just told be it was chicken then I wouldn't have even known but...I knew.

Bryce was really interested in looking at them, all I could think about is I couldn't get his hands washed fast enough. Rhett says that I baby them to much but let me tell you even if I do it hasn't made a difference......They are still BOYS, and I mean BOYS.
Ellcie couldn't figure out if it was gross or interesting, it was so funny. She is a girl alright.

Every time Rhett got out the boys were close behind. All in all they had a really good day. They can't wait for dad's day's off so they can go again.
