I Will Just Give You the Highlights

We had Noah's birthday party Monday at a fire station. It was super cool and super cute. I will post pictures soon. He had a great time with a few of his closest friends.

EmmyGirl has an ear infection. I took her to our lovely pediatrician on Monday RIGHT before the party.  In fact, she had to miss the party and stay home with Meme.  Lots of holding and loving has gone on in our home this week.  Currently, she is back to my sweet, happy, laid-back baby!

Yesterday was kind of a rough day.  Nothing major happened, but the kids were wild and by the end of play group I felt like I was failing at my job.  That is not including Noah's wrestling stint with the red-head boy at the gym and the two outfits that Emmy went through while at play group. After twenty minutes of sitting on the couch in complete silence, my mom came to the rescue by just listening to me.  She is so encouraging and guess what she said... she felt the same way at times. What?  So it is not just me?  PTL!

Around 9:30 last night, I found Noah in his bed eating an apple.  I thought everyone was asleep and I wanted to sneak a hot shower.  After I got out, I went to check on the kids and found Noah eating an apple that he had cut himself with the apple corer. All I could do was be thankful that he did not cut his finger.

The night ended by Noah and I curling up in my bed and calling it a night.  I figured that if he was in my reach, I would rest better. :)

I skipped an early morning workout and had a waffle with strawberries and whipped cream for breakfast.  Now, all was well...

So much respect for you, don't know how you do it with 3 kids. I'm terrified with the one on the way. :)

Definitely thankful for MOMS!! Thankful for little independent boys that still have all of their fingers! And glad that sometimes I'm not the only one that feels a little overwhelmed occasionally. Although--I can't even imagine THREE!! Way to go momma!
