when summer started, i had only one "job" that i wanted to get done. I have patched and sanded the porch, but have yet to get any paint on it. These two little fellas have taken up lots of time-when they are sleeping, i sure dont feel like starting to paint the porch (not knowing when they will awaken) OH WELL- enjoy the rest of your summer-only a few weeks left!!

sleep....sleep.......

My failed attempt to get a good "after bath" picture-usually this is the only time they are all clean at the same time.
So we have decided that if the boys arent in bed at 7:00pm 7:30 at the latest we can just plan on having a rough day the next day. Bottom line: my boys need their sleep and so does their momma. Since Andrews ball games have been over we try to stick by this rule (mostly for tyse and jack) and we have much better days
.

Clean kitchen and MUD

very rarely on any particular day can i clean up lunch with out being interrupted with screams or something of the sort. its just expected, thats just the way it is. on this particular day in july, jack was taking a early nap-no need to worry about him while i was cleaning up. i had just cleaned up lunch, counters sparkling, dishes in the dishwasher, table sparkling, even scrubbed the floor. then i realized, holy cow look at this kitchen....beautiful....no interuptions.... a clean kitchen, a sleeping baby..im headed out to play with the boys..............until i saw what was keeping them entertained.

Fun.............
Fun..............
