It's Monday and I'll cry if I want to.....

So this morning started off like any other morning, 4 miles in my living room with Leslie Sansone, shower, frost cake ,(okay that doesn't happen every morning) Get the girls dressed, hair done, breakfast, usually pancakes or Waffles (with or without powder sugar) YUM!!, then my morning takes a turn for the worst! Camtoad comes in with a swollen cheek complaning that her tooth was killing her yup (abscess tooth) I had the take Bubba D to preschool and then go to the church for a funeral that I was helping to serve food at! So I drop Cam off at Bec's house take all the kids to school (I car pool with the Hackett's) go by walmart for the rolls my mom wanted me to get cause she is home sick and couldn't go get them for the funeral then I drop Doyle off at preschool (run by the flower shop to get an arrangement of flowers and a bunny for Kaely that say's I love you!!! (we had a really bad morning before school started YUCK) I felt bad!!!
Then head home to do my hair that was in a bun from my morning shower, now it's 10:00am and as I am getting the casserole in the oven that my neighbor brought by and asked me to bake before the funeral so I could take it to the funeral for her (breath) Brian comes in and says that the Realtor just called and another Realtor wants to show our house at 11:00 (what the &(%*&^%&**&%) I freaked cause let me tell you I don't know about you but on Mondays my house looks like a train wreck and It's laundry day for the kids and yeah need I say more, so I call my ever so awesome neighbor Becca and tell her I desperately need her to come and help me clean my counters off in my kitchen while I run around my house burning 9000 calories and shoving things in the washer and dryer yeah EVERYTHING!!!!! you'd die if you really new!!! and other places that wouldn't be seen and with a smile on her beautiful face she walks through my laundry room door and I know that It will all be okay! SO for the next 30 min we clean and throw and shove and hide everything to make my very LIVED in house look like one of those model homes that they leave the lights on at night so you can see the WHOLE layout of the house(who am i kidding right)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We get the last dish dried and By now I am sweating like I just walked to 4 miles in under 9 minutes!!!
THEN THE PHONE RINGS..................It's shirley my Realtor, the people cancelled and won't be coming cause they closed on a house yesterday with another Realtor and forgot to call them and let them know earlier!!! I yelled in the phone "WHAT NNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" By now I am 30 minutes late for the funeral, Brian who should have been on his way to New Mexico to look at a job we're bidding on is in my garage stacking boxes and making it look like I actually park in my garage (I haven't' for 3 months now) Yeah New Years Resolution still not done :) and Becca (Have I told you how awesome my neighbor is) is still cleaning my counters and putting year supply cans away and out of site!!! I owe her BIG (HUGE);)
I laughed in the phone and SHirley felt horrible but hey...........What do you do!!!! plop down on the couch and totally enjoy my SPARKLING clean house!!!!


Then try to remember where it was that i shoved all of Brian and I's clean underware that was on the counter in the laundry room....hhhhmmmm this could be a problem!!!!

A Day @ the Park keeps the........mama's sain!!

Bec and I needed to get the kids out of the house. After she had called me earlier that morning and told me that all my kids had ventured over to her house, she then say's "Tif, go get in the shower I have all of your kids so go and enjoy your shower!!" Wow that was the sweetest thing and yes I did enjoy my shower.




































We decided after that it was time for Micky D to make lunch and us to enjoy the beautiful sunny weather. It was so fun!!!

Lazy Days

Feeling like my "Mommy" days were way outnumbering my "me time" days I neglected my house cleaning and laundry and with the help of my ever wonderful sis in law Amy (thanks for watching Bubba D) I was able to enjoy a most wonderful and relaxing Pedicure and a little shopping trip in down town safford today!!! It was a nice and much needed downtime!!!!

Mommy May I!!!!!.........

I just got home from the store (yep 11:00pm baby) and this little guy was still wide awake. He greeted me at the front door with a "mom your home, that didn't take too long" ( i left at 8:30) He then proceeds to help me unload the car and yes there were a ton of grocery's, then he comes in to me in the kitchen and says "mommy, may I please put the grocery's away for you" I sure hope he keeps this up, he will make some girl very very happy. I love this guy!!!! He can drive me crazy and make me melt all in a matter of seconds!!!!
