So I've surrived the last two days on my own. When all of a sudden it hit me today....I don't think I've ever had to take care of all 3 of my kids by myself before. Lets see our first nanny arrived shortly before baby C arrived and we've had one ever since. Well there was those four days (or was it just the weekend that felt like four days long) that I had the kids by myself. Last night and tonight I've had the worst headache...I mean to the point of being nausous! I wonder if that would have something to do with hubby not even being gone a week yet and my oldest M has been on a rampage breaking things. Like the baby pool I've only used once! Yes I guess I wasn't very clear when I said "don't touch the pool I will be out to hook it up in a minute". So much to my surprise I guess a minute was to long for M to wait and sure enough she put the hose on the pool and turned the hose on full force and blew a hole in it. So last night when she walked out of her room with the curtains and said they just fell down I had a sneaking suppision that she helped them to just fall down. Oh and she might just have helped the vinyl sign that had her and her sisters name on it to fall down also (considering it was in a ball). I mean could you wait for a better time or what. But all in all we are all still living so that's got to count for something right LOL.

So today was the typical day in my household. Well except for my husband being gone, me getting back from my Grandfather's funeral late friday night and the two day trip from....well that place that is really, really hot. Oh then to top it all off I was up at 4AM to get my nanny (ie the lifesaver of this family) to the airport....because yes you've guessed it she flew home on vacation for two weeks! Not to mention I was on my own with me three kids but also my neighbor's 3 kids who by the way she was in the hosptial having her new little one YEA (welcome to the world!). So if you don't take all that in to consideration today was my naormal usually uneventful life LOL!

Baby C learned to wave hello and goodbye all at once. He loved his new trick and giggled everytime he would open and close his little fist and I would say "hello". Then he would get all excited and start waving his hand back and forth and I would say "goodbye". So when I finally was able to drag myself to bed that night it was not much of a surprose to find L in my bed....in my bed diaperless....in my bed diaperless and covered in permant black marker....in my bed diaperless, covered in black marker and surrounded by black permant marker all over my sheets! Oh how adorable and cute are my kids :o)

My Life

Well hello how is everyone doing? I have been keeping busy here with lots of new and exciting adventures. As you know I joined swap bot and have been having fun swapping away. Its nice to get little surprises in the mail every now and then. If that wasn't enough fun I've opened my own etsy store: Blessed with 3 kids! Well actually the grand opening hasn't happened yet as I am still trying to make the necklaces to sell. You can see a few of the items I have completed if you look on the left of my blog page at the etsy store window. Feel free to visit the store and browse around....Keep checking back as new items will be added daily. I will also write a post when we have our grand opening and the first ten people to purchase an item will receive a free gift!
Now more fun for you to look forward to is Bloggy giveaways quarterly carnival!!! Yes it is here again YEAH!!! This time around I think I am going to join and have a giveaway of my own right here on my blogspot. So write the dates down and don't forget to come back Between July 28th and August 1st. Who knows you could win something for free and that is always nice! Don't forget to check out Bloggy giveaways site that week to enter the many giveaways they will have. You can find a link to their page under my Bloggy buddies.

As for the family well lets just say its summertime and the kiddies are driving mommy CRAZY! Yesterday M and her friends across the street bring me a baby bird....yes you guessed it she wanted to keep it for a pet! Like I know what to feed baby birds....and who is suppose to teach this thing to fly???? I mean I have one I'm potty training, one I'm teaching to stand up on his own (and eventually walk) and one I just trying to teach to clean up after herself. Like I have time to teach a baby bird to fly LOL. Anyways hubby and I took it to a bird rescue center last night. That was pretty neat they had a ton of birds, including a hawk and an owl they can't release back into the wild so they are training to take them to schools in the area for education! It was really neat to see. I think I will take the kids sometime...they would probably enjoy that.

Well enough of my constant rambling....I will post ya'll later!
