I apologize for not posting sooner. With all the strep, and then mom coming and so on, we’ve been busy. That seems to be the mantra lately – busy busy busy busy busy. Boys get up – run around getting them ready for school until they leave and I breathe a sigh of relief. Run around chasing my tail all day trying to do everything that needs to be done for the day. Boys come home – spend the next 5 hours filling out forms, helping with homework, coddling tired and hungry kids and preparing meals: dinner, tomorrow’s lunches and if I’m feeling ambitious, even breakfast.
Once baths are finished and the boys are down, Brad and I collapse in a heap until we are finally able to drag our tired bodies off to bed. Then we start all over again the next day.
It’s a crazy life, but I have to admit that I’m enjoying it. Especially since we have been cleaning out and clearing out and have been blessed with the help of my mother, a maid service and potentially a crew to clean the grass out of our flowerbed. For me, it feels like Spring cleaning.
So enough about all that. The boys are doing well and since I know that’s why 95% of you read my blog, here are some recent pics.
