My crazy but predictable day!


THE QUESTION IS, "WHAT DO YOU DO FOR WORK AND WHAT ARE YOUR DUTIES"?


My job is a MOM! It's one, if not the most important job anyone can have! If you ask me.My duties are as follows:
My day starts out at 6:15am. I go directly to the coffee pot. I take a couple of sips then it's off to my 13yr olds room to wake him up. I drink my coffee while returning to wake him up several times. I then get the babies things ready for the day. Cups, breakfast, diapers, etc... I take another few minutes to myself. I then go to the living room and vacuum the floors. I have this thing with dirty carpets. It makes me nuts!!
At 7:45 or so, I go get the triplets up. I can be exhausted, miserable, or just plain pissy and that ALL disappears when I walk into their room and see their faces! There's nothing like hearing three toddlers all yell MOMMY! They are the only ones that will always be happy to see you!
Once they are out of bed, I change all 3 diapers and usually some clothes too. There's also nothing like a baby soaked in pee at 8 in the morning! LOL
I shoo them all over to the table, we have breakfast, Mommy cleans up breakfast off the floor, table, chairs, and the kids. Then we get dressed and have some play time.
Repeat all above at 11:30 for lunch.
12-12:30 is long awaited NAP TIME!!!! Woo Hoo! Two hours of complete silence. I love it.
2:30-3pm naps are over, and it's more diapers and then snack. If it's warm, we go outside. If it's summer we stay outside all day.
My Husband comes home from work at 4:30pm and then it's dinner time.
I feed the family, clean table, chairs, floor, and babies!
Then Daddy has some play time with the kids while I do stuff around the house.
Finally.....Baths, more diapering, then bedtime.
THAT IS MY JOB! SAME THING ALMOST EVERY DAY! (In FULL detail) Hehehe.

Outside Fun!


All the kids love the swing! We had fun just swinging together. Brett's cheeks are chapped....i'm applying lotion 3 times a day. It's not helping too much. There's another reason to be happy that winter is coming to an end!




Spring is here????


It's been a few days....Brett is still sick. He's got the runny/stuffy nose still. He acts fine though. We'll be back to the doctor next week to find out what's going on.

We had a GREAT day here today. It was in the 60's! Woo hoo! I took the kids out this morning for a walk. It was the ONLY time they were quiet all morning. Once it warmed up a bit, I got Daddy and Uncle Glenn to bring out the slide and bikes from the basement. The kids had so much fun. They've had cabin fever something fierce. So has Mommy! So we got to play, ride bikes, and have lunch outside today. We all needed that. It's been a long winter that's for sure.
