um...

wow a month? really? where has time gone!
Im stuck in a sad cycle. mon tues work. pick up girls. get home late. pile a carful of belongings on the couch. dinner at 8. girls in bed 930. me in bed 1030. too tired to clean. too tired for dishes.
but wednesday...I spend all mon and tues looking forward to wed. i see wed as a day of sunshine and rainbows, when i will divide and conquer. get up early. be happy. be productive. laundry. dishes. dusting. vacuum. organize. playing with kids. exercise. oh the wonderful things i will get done wednesdays.
but. reality. EVERY wednesday here i sit. i wake up and lay in bed for 30 min listening to the girls wake up and cry for me. then i mosey. mosey to the coffee pot. pour hadley some cereal, give wesley a bottle. mosey to the computer. check emails. and i snoop. i facebook. i look at blogs. oh the wonderful blogs i see. all these productive people doing productive things. i look at all the things i would like to do. projects to sew. walls to paint. pictures to take. headbands. purses. then i get depressed. all these things i never get around to doing. and hadley is yelling at me, hitting my arm. MOM IM HUNGRY. wow. is it really noon already? all 3 of us still in jammies. baby has a wet diaper. so i mosey to the kitchen. make lunch in the corner of the kitchen where there is a few inches of clean counter top to throw together some sandwiches. and pile the dishes in the sink. we eat, and now it is nap time. another 3 hours of peace and quiet, 3 hours to be productive, and i am tempted again. i think "i could do a craft" so i sit back at the computer to look for that one cool thing i saw this morning. and look. and look. and the baby cries, jolting me back to reality, and i realise it is now 3. brent will be home in 2 hours. i am still in my jammies, dirty mouth, dirty house. i hate wednesdays. or at least what my lazy butt makes of them. so thursday i clean, and i have now wasted my days off. icky! i am going to have an intervention for myself. get a life. get off the computer!

Happy things: like happy chubby babies!

2 camping trips under our belt, and many more on the way. we are having a blast with our new trailer, and hadley couldn't me messier. i mean happier. digging, fishing, climbing, jumping, and more digging. We went to Goblin Valley, then Palisades Lake. the pictures are a little out of order, sorry. hadley even heard the easter bunny go "hop hop" outside, and then followed a fun egg trail to her easter bag!
