What do you do all day?

I love it when people ask me what I do all day!
As if all stay at home moms have maids, cooks, nannies, and personal assistance! I had one of those days this week, the kind that everything you touch falls apart! I wanted to just sit down and cry by early afternoon, but there was no time for that!! Here is how my day went:
  • Mary Elizabeth woke me up at 3:30am because her blanket fell on the floor.
  • Everyone up and wanting milk and breakfast at 6:30am.
  • Dropped 1/2 gallon of milk on floor.
  • Get everyone dresses and feed, Harrison had to be dressed twice because he did not make it to the potty in time!
  • Make a quick trip to grocery store (there is never a quick trip with 3 little ones)
  • Make two trips to the potty in the grocery store, and had one temper tantrum!
  • Get home unload car, by this time it is lunch!
  • Put lunch on stove, burn lunch!
  • Change Mary Elizabeth's clothes, she did not make it to the potty in time!
  • Put lunch #2 on stove and put in on the table.
  • Answer phone, turn around and cat is eating our lunch and turned the drinks over on the table.
  • Mop the floor and give up on eating lunch!!
  • Broke up a fight, put kids in corner!
  • Put dishes in dishwasher, cut hand on knife!
  • Put kids down for a nap, and wouldn't you know the girls didn't want to go to sleep!
  • Finally get everyone to sleep, finally a moments to gather myself - 3 phone calls I have to take!

This was just half my day and I gave up on getting anything accomplished!! But I sure LOVE being a stay at home Mom and would not trade my JOB for any other.

I am just glad that God blessed me with kids to keep my life interesting!

Family walk in the Woods...

Our family took a short walk on the trails in our neighborhood today.
I LOVE the outdoors and just the beauty in nature. It is just a reminder to me of what an awesome CREATOR we serve and how He has blessed us.
The photo below is my favorite, just a single rain drop.

Take the time to look at His beautiful creations and Praise Him for it!

When it is too cold to play outside...

It has been way to cold outside to play and NO snow to go sledding, so Jason decided to create our own sledding game indoors. These type of activities go on all the time at our house!!


Jason going first.

Mary Elizabeth

Harrison

Harper


At least they used the CARPETED stairs going to the basement and not the wood main staircase!!
