This is how I feel when I'm at the store, trying to shop with 3 kids.

Today

Ross

3 kids

this is how it went

Roman screaming because he didn't want to sit in the cart

Mic putting things in the shopping cart that she said "she needed"

Summer just disappearing somewhere in the store

So I let Roman down (big mistake)

He ran through the store, screaming, playing with the toys

the girls chased after him, telling me they were "helping" 

but really they just wanted to run around the store. 

So one of the Ross employees told my kids 

that if they didn't stop running

he would call the cops. 

Hey....it worked....

for like 2 MINS! 

UGH! 

I need to hire a nanny!

Gratitude day......

Ok so I know that I have not been keeping up my gratitude posts. 

It was a great thought,

but honestly, I've been so busy 

with school/homework

 being my dad's personal photographer

motherhood

housekeeping

being sick

kids

family get-togethers

starting another blog (fail)

that 

well.......I realized that as much as I love to write

and have so much to say,

I'm just not a good blogger at this point in my life.

So, right now I will just have to focus on the important

things that need to be done at this time in my life

and not add more stress by feeling like 

I have to be clever and post, post, post on

not just one blog but 2 blogs.

So.....this will be it. Just this blog

and when I can I will, and when

 I can't, I won't stress over it. 

There it is! And

Even though I'm not posting it everyday

I do have so many things to be thankful for. 

I love Thanksgiving

OH and 

3 more days till California!

Follow my new blog.....HERE 

CONTENT may not be appropriate for all ages.....haha I've always wanted to say that. 

But seriously I will post about reality and topics that maybe will offend some people. Just a warning. 

November 3rd 2011

Things I'm grateful for today

• My Girls... for being pretty independent every morning, but today especially since mom was laying in bed sick and couldn't do much other than get them to school.
• My in-laws for always being willing to help me when in need
• for school, I know I complain about school, but I'm thankful that I can get an education, and I'm thankful for everything that I'm learning.
• I'm thankful for the heat of my home
• for the food in my fridge
• and for herbal teas that are helping my throat not hurt so bad

So there it is....a few things, Oh and there is only 9 more days till our vacation, I'm very thankful for that!

    

      Things I'm thankful for on 2nd day of November:

• The fact that I realized that we only have 10 more days till we take off for our vacation
• Still thankful for my husband that works so hard for us
• for the baby girl that will soon be joining our family
• the Gospel in my life
• and for Nyquil....which saved my life, actually it saved my sleep last night.

NOVEMBER!!

It's finally here, NOVEMBER, and I want to post things I'm thankful for....AND our countdown to our family vacation because today UPS delivered these



Thank you UPS man!

 I'm so thankful for my husband, he has been working every week, for 13 weeks straight (he is only home for about 36 hours every week) Most weeks he can't even remember what city, or state he is in. I know this has been hard for him, but he's doing it for us to have a good time on our vacation and Christmas is just around the corner. So this post is for him! 12 more days till California.
The first thing I'm looking forward to, is to see Roman's face when he meets one of the Disney characters....that will be priceless!
