JUST WONDERING IF YOU CAN YOU HEAR THAT?




..................................... SILENCE ......................................
It has come to my attention that my kids cry A LOT!! To have the rare occasion that all three of my kids asleep at the same time is nothing short of a miracle. Rhett has decided that he wants teeth and along with the sores from his helmet his crying is continuous. Bennett gets a little jealous when he sees his brother having all of moms attention, so he has to be heard as well. His sores are minimal, but still hurt. Naomi wants any kind of attention, so she has decided that it's fun to play 'baby', and wants me to run around getting her a bottle or a blanket for her quota to be filled. So to mark the blessed occasion, I decided to rest on my bed and share this moment with you. Forget about the laundry, unmade beds, messy kitchen, dirty bathrooms, dinner to be made, Naomi's school, a million phone calls to make, grocery shop, vacuuming the floors, and everything else that needs to be done,
I'm enjoying the silence

must have been the day for sleeping. Chase fell asleep from school so did Taylor. I put Jess down for a nap and they all slept!!! The twins are not wanting to nap anymore so it is wonderful when they do. I and 1 1/2hrs of silence until Zack got home from school. I watched tv:) I did iron a table cloth though!

I hear you sister! I LIVE for nap time, it is the only time I ever get anything done...and sometimes I don't do anything just so I can have a break! Ha ha ha. Come on over one of these days, I will hold a baby for you and Naomi and Susanna can play.
