Multitasking

I think it's perfectly fine that at 10am this morning I was eating left over mashed potatoes, dancing, and cleaning the kitchen. I was much happier cleaning this way than the normal quiet & frustrated mood I usually am in when cleaning. - MP

Splish Splash

My husband was working late so it was me and the one year old for dinner.  My one year old wouldn't play with his bucket of toys and was more interested in the oven.  I repositioned him into the living room and he then proceeded to find the dog's water bowls.  I let him play with the water bowl while I finished dinner!  - Marcy F. 

lazy

Do you ever get the feeling you have gone a bit lazy? The last month or so I've just gotten in a funk and I pretend its because I'm SOOOO busy with the kids, but in reality, it's that I'm SOOO busy since I'm being SOOO lazy with everything else. - MP

tv crazed

My kids have been behaving and napping so well that I have watched half of a season of Grey's Anatomy in the last 5 days. - MP

FT Nanny Needed

Yesterday was one of those days where if I only had one wish - it would be for a full time nanny. Let me paint the picture for you:

• A 2 year old. (i shouldn't even have to go on)
• A SICK 2 year old (same kid as above)
• An 11 month old that is starting to show his independence yet still clings to Momma
• A SICK 11 month old
• A sleep deprived Momma because said children (mostly the 11 month old) decided it would be fun to only sleep from 130am-530am - leaving Momma with only 4 hrs of sleep.
• Crying/whining/fits every hour. On the hour. 

Wouldn't you have wanted a full-time nanny too?!

*note - i DO love my children, yesterday was just very.....challenging.
