It's been a long time since I have posted anything. Things at home have gotten even busier. I returned to work without incident. I feel guilty saying it, but it's kind of like a relief. I miss my kids and I wish I could stay home and take care of them, but there is something about getting up, getting ready, putting on some make up and conversing with other people about different things. Going to work gives me a chance to remember that I am not just a mom. Often times we, as mothers, forget that. I have also started school. I am taking online classes at the University of Phoenix. That is something that I have wanted to do for a while. People have asked, "Why not wait until things get easier and you have more time?" Well, because with 3 kids I don't think things will get easier any time soon. No one ever really has "time", so I said, I might as well do it now. So far, things are going great! Bobby and Robert both hold the girls down while I'm "at school".
As far as a baby sitter, we were fortunate enough to have the owner of the house that we rent, Ana, come over and watch them. Bobby doesn't even have to leave. She was willing to keep them all here. She comes over 3 days out of the week. They stay in the comfort on their own home. I honestly thought she was going to quit after the first day. Baby baby is quite the cry baby. Ana has the experience and patience to deal with cry babies. I know this is temporary because she is looking for real work. In the mean time I will appreciate her and all she does! My mom also helps out by watching them on her days off. She barely gets any time to herself but is still willing to occupy her time with all 3 of her grandchildren. Makes me want more. I'm joking!!
Summertime is here and it feels like fall or spring. We have only had a handful of summer days. It hasn't given us a chance to take the kids places. It has been too chilly for Baby Baby to be out and about. Which reminds me...people who complain all winter long about how cold it is and then summer days with 90 degree heat come in and they complain that it's too hot don't make any sense to me. We have frigid, long, winters so we can appreciate hot, sunny, humid, summer days. If you don't like it, I suggest moving out of the Midwest!
All my kids are healthy and growing. Baby Baby is already 3 months old! Time is just passing us by.
Oh! Before I forget, I would like to say CONGRATULATIONS to Jen and Stan on their brand spanking new baby boy, Henry! He is so cute and hopefully my daughters will be able to have a playmate.
