Where to begin....

It's been four weeks since my last post. Where has the time gone?? I can tell you exactly where it's gone. Try getting up at 5:30 feed the shorties and then get the big shortie up at 7:00 a.m. to get ready for school. Entertain and make breakfast, get the boys down for a nap and take Lauren to school. I either groom myself or get busy with the chores of the morning (yes, it's a choice that I have to make) and then after the boys get up from their morning nap the chaos begins. We really don't have a set schedule, they are not napping all at the same time, but they all eat at the same time. I'm really working on a eating, playing, napping schedule but it's S L O W. Than after getting Lauren from school, the fun really starts - everyone wants to be held and entertained individually and shall I remind you that it's just me taking care of them at that time. I've gotten Lauren to help as well and sometimes when Mike hears me losing my mind, he will come down and rescue me for a minute. If they are not entertained 100% then they cry and there is sympathy crying at this time too. It's getting a bit much for me to handle myself. We are seriously talking about hiring a nanny for the afternoon to help me keep my sanity.

Thanksgiving has come and went. Brenda and Drew showed up for a visit as well as Mike's aunt and uncle and cousins. It was a pleasant visit and lot of beverages and conversation was had by all.
